Obsessive cat demands human pet her

When this cat was rescued 6 years ago, her eyes were permanently shut with goo and she had worms. She was too young to be away from her mother, but her mother was gone. These people brought her home and bottle fed her. Since then she has been a strange cat. Distant at times, then suddenly demanding of attention, and she even loves the smell of anything minty. Her human has used a new brand of soap, so now she wants to rub the smell onto herself!
