Day 1: Max was basically a dust bunny with eyes. He hid under the couch, refused to eat, and looked at us like we were the villains in his personal horror movie. I spent hours coaxing him out with treats, only to be rewarded with a suspicious side-eye and a tail flick. Fast forward to now: Max is the undisputed king of the house. He’s claimed every sunny spot, demands breakfast at 6am sharp, and has zero respect for personal space (or Zoom meetings). The same cat who once flinched at every sound now launches surprise attacks on my socks and expects applause for every successful pounce. It’s wild how a scared little rescue can turn into your loudest, most demanding roommate. Wouldn’t trade him for anything—even if he does think my laptop is his bed. Anyone else’s pet go from terrified gremlin to household dictator? #PetGlowUp #RescueCat #BeforeAndAfter #Pets
