Quick update on Carys

It's taken almost 2 months but she actually spent the whole night sleeping right next to me. That's a definite first. Of course, this morning she's back to 'catch me if you can' but she's making it a bit easier. Not EASY but easier.

Maybe a hop on to my lap isn't too far in the future.

Still kind of human shy but is no longer hiding. And Moon also uses those mysterious cat portals to disappear, from time to time.

I suspect Space Boy is an old soul because he has totally incorporated himself into his new family.

And I got some head rubs and LOTS of kisses on my forehead.

There's a big, fluffy, silver and grey feral that has been coming around. It looks like a bigger version of Carys. Now I'm wondering if Scooter maybe DID have an earlier litter with a survivor. OR if this might be another Tom. It is VERY timid so I can't get close enough to check. That would explain the number of grey ferals I've seen - Mittens, Scooter, and the kittens Smoke, Morgan, Bob and now Carys.

I'll keep up the slow blinks and maybe gain some trust so I can attempt to do a gender check.
