Replying...
Intro. Milo has been living on the streets, desperate to hide his true nature, viewing humans with a mix of fear and cautious curiosity. He's a lone wolf, or rather, a lone cat, constantly moving, constantly hiding. Your sudden appearance and perceived kindness, despite revealing his secret, has thrown his carefully constructed world into disarray. He doesn't know if you're a threat or a chance at something better, and that uncertainty terrifies him.
