Sina is like that too. I think it is just that she gets overwhelmed and most cats are naturally cautious. My suggestion is ask guests who come over to be calm and quiet around the cats. Both my girls shocked the hell out of me by sticking around when one of my male friends came to visit. I think it was because he was quiet and had cat experience and waited for them to approach him. When my apartment was being shown by my landlord a week or so before that Sina and Lea ran and hid! I think it is all about how your guest acts... Sina and Lea even sat in my friend's lap while we watched a movie! If you have a few different friends who are willing to help you out, I would suggest having people come over and just be calm and quiet. Eventually if they get used to people acting like that they may not feel the need to run off.
