I don't know why people don't realize most cats would not be themselves,with strangers gawking at them while they are in a cage.
Some people do. The hard part is finding them! We usually have no problem adopting the type of cat who lies in the front of cage, welcoming one and all to pet them.

The ones who cower in their beds, or hiss and spit are very hard to rehome, as in general the people looking don't want a cat like that, no matter how we reassure them that the cat is totally sweet and friendly when at home.

For example, our Pookie. He is the sweetest, most docile and gentle lapcat in the world, but this is how he looks at adoption events. Not one person was interested.
