Someone has finally decided that humans aren't so bad, and their laps are a cozy place to nap.

Even though she's still not totally comfortable with me in a totally vertical position (unless food is involved) she now readily hops up on my lap, whether or not the boys are already settled in. And she will snuggle right up against me and purr. She's stopped hiding and follows me around the house. If I hold my hand out, she gives it a good sniff. Sometimes I can even get in a pet.

It took 3 months, ALMOST to the day, but I do believe she might actually enjoy being my little girl.

A nice safe warm home with plenty of food, plenty of companionship from the other cats in her life (including her other siblings), and your lap to lie in.

It's cool how you two are color coordinated for the photo, too.

Great photo, too. Mine never turn out as awesome as this one is.
