My girls are both a little shy of people in the house. They typically hide, and if the guests are there long enough, one or both may wander out to look around. However, my (past) neighbor, who loves cats, always admired them through the window. They both would sit on the windowsills when she and I would be outside chatting in the driveway. One day she came inside, and I warned her that they are shy, but what happens, they both went right up to her and started rubbing allover her legs and purring! They let her pet them (no holding though)!!!! I was amazed. She looked at me and said, "I thought you said they were shy?!"

Yep, proved me to be crazy!
