It looks like she's really weirded out, the tail tucked under her belly means if anybody's grip is loosened, she's outta there like a bolt of hairy lightning.

All she wants to do is go home, eat some fishy flavor mush, and go kick more dog butt.

She reacts to a situation where something different is happening badly at first, but once she realizes that it is not going to harm her? She is calm as pie. It took ten tries to get her in the cat carrier to go to the vet. The second she was there, let out and saw the vet? She freaking started purring, sat on the metal table and mildly swished her tail. She did get upset about the stick up her butt worms test, but she was pretty calm through the shots, too.

She knew she wasn't there to be hurt, and her person was there.

When someone comes over, she'll run and hide for a while. When she comes out, she's all purrs and head-butts when she's not acting all coy. If they stay long enough, she's their best friend. It's the same at the vet. She yowls her head off while purring and head-butting the vet.

She reminds me of my sweet Roma-Tomato-Nose darling

She ran a dog off that was humongous. I have little doubt my angel would have reacted the same way!
