She’s settling in fast! Cats struggle with change but she knows she’s with someone safe

Pretty awful day to be out and about but it was made bearable through teamwork (can’t believe I said that). I might do some work from home tomorrow and see if the cat can be enticed to enjoy some lap time on the oodie. In fact, I might do a bit of that tonight if I feel up to it… sox was remarkably affectionate when I got back and even did a bit of lap sitting in order to furiously headbutt my gloved hand. I suppose she must love the hand that feeds her the treats 😁

Yes, I don’t think she was too happy at all about having to move and was certainly upset about it at the beginning. But I think food and warmth trumps a lot of misgivings and she definitely remembers me now even though I’m not in the same place.

Oh yes, familiarity and territory is huge for cats! But thankfully so is food and warmth. She’s doing really well.

I’m glad she’s warming up to you again, did it always take awhile for her to warm up to you?

When she was younger and she lived in the same apartment complex at me she was pretty chilled out even on the first day, though it took her longer to get comfy enough for lap time.
This time around she’s started off hot but then gone a lot further. I guess there’s not much else for her to do in this tiny apt either…
