Update on Gwen [View all]

She is weighing in at 1 lb. She is 'off the bottle' and eating the slurry out of a shallow dish. The rest of the kid cats seem to have fully accepted that she's now a part of the clowder. She no longer bumbles. She ZOOMS. We're still working on her using the litter box but progress has been made. Now that she's made herself at home, her sleep pattern has finally settled in to the normal range, although she still prefers sleeping on me to sleeping in her playpen. I get lots of licks and purrs.
