Some of our cats are shy and stay away from potential adopters or volunteers. Offering the treats brings some of these shy ones closer to people so that they learn that people can be their friends. One such cat is Amira (pictured). From her Petfinder profile: “Amira is a pretty, patched tabby-with-white female. She came to us with a family of four kittens, and they are all ready for loving, forever homes. Amira is shy.” Meet Amira: https://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/6415802
