When she first arrived, Maria seemed to define the word “shy”. She’s very observant and soon found a happy hiding spot under the sofa. Now she knows she can avail herself any time, she’s quite happy to come out and see what’s going on in the household and then, when the mood takes her, to ask for affection! All you have to do is be still and quiet and you’ll soon have a pretty lady by your side wanting to be stroked◎

In the right environment, Maria will soon stop hiding altogether! She now knows all the best sunspots!

Her favorite cushion is one with a towelling cover. She’ll relax totally when she’s lying on it.

It takes Maria a while to settle in to a new environment and get used to new people, but once she does, she’s a friend forever. Could you be her person? Her BFF and sister Miglia is waiting too!
