Athena is a beautiful dilute calico, who is a bit on the shy side, although has come a long way in a short time. Athena likes to talk to you and now welcomes affection and attention, if you go slowly. In fact, she will chatter away at you until you engage in conversation! Athena and her four siblings entered the world on the sidewalk of an apartment complex, born to a very young, abandoned cat. They were brought to us with their mom, when the kittens were just one day old. They grew up in our nursery with ten other kittens their age and Minx, one of the moms. Athena tends to be a bit of a loner and could easily be an only pet IF there's a lot of human interaction, plenty of toys, a screened area and lots of patience and love.
