I was taking an optional summer phys ed class when one day I got sick. It was a half an hour drive to get to school and I had to at least try to go or else I would lose my credit's for that Class. My mother drove me over there and we had to stop on several occassions because I was getting sick. When we finally got to Muncie we drove around the block trying to find my teacher to tell him I had tried to come but I couldn't stay. It was lucky for one little kitten we did. As we circled the block I was still getting sick and had the door open leaving out, so Mom was driving slow. All of a sudden something gray ran in front of us and Mom stopped, we barely missed it. It was a tiny light gray kitten that didn't look old enough to be weaned. Now, bear in mind I'm hanging out the door getting sick when my mother says "Oh Audrey Go get it! It's gonna get ran over." So I got out of the car and managed to catch this kitten, who proceeded to bite me and draw blood. when I got back to the car I told mom "We're naming her Stormie" and that is how we aquired our 3rd cat. Now we have had her for almost 5 months, and it was really touch and go when we got her. clearly no one took care of her, she had fleas so bad her gums were white from lack of blood. For the first 2 days she barely moved at all, peeing and everything right where she lay. After the 3rd day though she started perking up, but only to run away from us. Now four month's later she is the same way, and she is scratching herself until she bleeds. I catch her and pet her for alt least an hour each day to make sure she get's attention, but nothing helps. She always hides, and if she is out and sees you looking at her she runs. She plays well with the other cats, but people that come here never know we have 3 cat's instead of 2. Any advice on how to get her to liven up?
