My calico's disposition is generally good. She has her attitudy, true calico moments but mostly she's a sweetie to me and my husband. It is not until we have a company that we see her real evil side. Everytime someone comes over, it is the same routine. She greets them at the door, sniffs them, sometimes give a friendly, little lick, then proceeds to back away. Then she will sit in the middle of the room staring at our guest, if they move or talk to her she growls and if they come near her she hisses. We don't have people over a lot and it may be that she is just not used to people other then us but i was just wondering if the is something i can do to make her more comfortable around strangers. And i'm scared that this may get worse and she may actually start attacking our guests. If anyone has any tips, i would love to hear them.
