I was wondering how everyones cats behave when you have guests. I've just noticed a big difference in my cats.. which is sorta interesting.
Twice this week we had people over. Cookie was around at first, and then got really scared and took off. Suzie hid the ENTIRE time. Now these two were not handled as small kittens. Cookie is pretty friendly and acts like Zakk and Rocky around us, just not as affectionate. Suzie will stay in the same room as me, but she will hide and keep her distance.
My other two kept a close eye on the guests. They even seemed to be around us more they were so curious to know what was going on. It's funny, if everyone is sitting around a table Rocky jumps up on a chair and acts like he is part of the party. In the past when my mom brought her dog, they even got used to him.. she didn't this time though. They even let my cousins pet them.. Rocky only got annoyed when my cousin sam kept laying his head on him.
So esp those with more than one cat.. do they behave differently? I wasn't surpised about Suzie, but I was more with Cookie since he usually seemed pretty fearless.
