Congratulations to Molly on winning the Owner Lottery. And bless you for adopting a senior cat. Molly may never be as social as Magic. But I think with time, patience, love and bribes, Molly will definitely build trust and want to spend more time with you. Have you tried catnip? Some cats go crazy for it.
