Piper is in the right home! Congrats!This is Piper:
She was the product of a "for profit" breeder, but was de-valued because she's Siamese but doesn't have the typical markings. As a result she was somewhat ignored and abused a bit, and as a result of that my friend was able to adopt her free as a "rescue". Also as a result, Piper is not particularly friendly until you've earned her trust; took me about four or five days of patience and behaving relaxed and calm around her. Once she felt comfortable with me, she heard my voice and ran across the house to lay on my lap. My friend said Piper had never done that with anyone but her, so I took it as acceptance. Now, after more than a few months, Piper shows all the signs of comfort and affection around me, so I do what I can to maintain that.
