Hissing and growling when approached. Low rumbling growl in response when spoken to, broken up by whine like meow and hissing. Starts to wash self in front of me but stops to stare, growling with ears flattened. I did not attempt to touch or handle Gretchen today, not ready for interaction. Sprayed feliway. Ate treat offered.
