Maple was adopted by an old friend who unfortunately passed away. She wasn't looked after properly and was continually sick and was never let outside of the living room. After I got her we spent weeks fixing her diet and slowly letting her outside (starting with a harness and lease, then free rein). She is now a happy cat who needs to sleep under the blankets with her head on a pillow. If you don't allow her she will scream until you do.
The first toy we got her was a octopus. And She loves it, no other toy will do and she carries it around with her and cuddles it to sleep.
I was never a cat person but she melts my heart everyday.
