Mysterio is no longer a mystery.

We have another female. I'm thinking the temporary name will be Carys, Welsh for beloved.

She is still a little hesitant about her situation but will now settle in for a snuggle and also did a little exploring of the expanded living space.

We've decided to put off the flea cleaning until tomorrow so that they can settle in and settle down just a little bit more.

That being said, Gwyn is ready to join the rest of the world. On a scale of 1 to 10, he's at about a 9 1/2. Eire is at maybe a 6 and I'd put Carys at perhaps a 4. But they all have healthy appetites AND are making very good use of the litter pan.

I find it totally impossible to read the language, it is to me, unable to be pronounced. But it totally fits these little refugees and I am so glad they now all have a happy place. Have you ever tried to catch the Momma cat?

Scooter has always hung around in the back yard. I'm going to put the trap out and let it sit for a couple of days so she can get used to seeing it. Then I'll bait it with sardines.

I know how hard that is. One of our rescued Momma cats had to live in one of our bathrooms for a long time until we were finally able to touch and pet her.
