Christmas Tree Cat!

This cute little cat peeking out from the x-mas tree is a former PFA rescue, Rider, all set to enjoy a fun Christmas with her family.

What makes this remarkable is that Rider started out as a totally feral kitten, and it is only through much dedication and patience on behalf of her adoptive that she has become a happy and friendly family pet.

Rider was trapped in the fall of 2009. It took three months of handling (using gloves, towels and blankets for protection) before Rider could be touched with bare hands! Now, after a year, she is a very tame and affectionate little cat who clearly loves being part of a human family.

What a wonderful success story!
