Prussia was living as a house cat in his first home, but was very aggressive towards the children he lived with. When they brought him to us, we thought he would probably actually be a very nice cat- But they were telling the truth, and he is really quite aggressive! He loves attention but doesn't like to be held or touched, and in the past those two things were sometimes a perfect storm. Despite that, always warn guests, and as he gets older he has become a much calmer cat, and we don't have to worry as much anymore.
