I have mentioned our adopted cat - or rather the one that has adopted us.
We weren't sure of gender but one clue was it's temperamental attitude which inclines to consider it female.......
It is getting more friendly and less nervous - or was.

We have two little grand girls staying for the week. Of course they run around and make a lot of noise. We expected the cat to scarper - but it didn't. It clearly wasn't comfortable around them but not as terrified as we'd expected. Actually was friendly to one.

But it did try the PAT test on me when I was encouraging it to go out my office window. In fairness, it was p1ssing down rain at the time.

I think you'd give me the pat test if I tried to get you outside when it's raining too

Well, it obviously wasn't traumatised.
It keeps coming back. In fact, it is stretched and relaxed on my office floor as I type.
Still jumpy if I make sudden movements.

We just wonder how it was treated before it adopted us.

Yes there are some animals out there and I mean the human kind but persevere and you will succeed, I am sure

I agree with both points although I'm not quite how to measure success.
The mention of a PAT test was my attempt at humour.
The learning curve works both ways I guess.

That's crazy! As if you had a pet Ostrich, I thought I was a bit pet mad with three dogs and a horse - but that's pet mental! hah

Flicking things I nearly got raped by a rhodesian ridgeback

That happened to me when i was about 7, by a massive red setter, didn't know what was going on at the time, just remember not been able to escape and could hear me mum calling me for tea. wonder if i can put a claim in......

We now have this handsome chap.
Just a year old.

He's quite a big dog and weighs 25kg (55lb)

The missus made a blueberry muffin and set it at the back of the kitchen worktop. It disappeared - together with most of the paper plate it was on.

But he is a friendly beast. With teeth like this, you wouldn't want him to be otherwise.
