Socialization:
Owner stated that when around strangers Cashmere is friendly and outgoing. She has spent time around children all ages and is relaxed and playful when around them. Owner states that when playing with adults and children Cashmere is gentle. Cashmere has never spent time around other cats or dogs so it is unknown how she will react.
