Moving On

Well, she is really not a kitty, but a grown cat at least six years old. Poor baby belonged to hubby’s cousin who passed away last week. This precious kitty has been just about on her own for a year in her mama’s house while mama was in the hospital and assisted living and it shows. She has gained weight and is real reclusive.

But she is gorgeous. She is a tortie and has great markings. When we used to visit her mama she would come out and say hi and let us pet her and love on her. So we know she has it in her to become a great family member.

We are still working on convincing our other two that this will be a great friend. There is lots of growling and hissing going on now days. Demona has been living for over  a week in our guest bathroom. We get her out when the other two are put up for at least several times a day, an hour or more at a time.  Well, last night we started letting all three out at the same time. Demona is really taking it easy and not pushing it. At times, like now she just stays in the bathroom even though the door is open. Of course, if we both leave the house, we will shut her up to be sure our two cats don’t hurt her or that she does not get into something that would hurt her.

But I just thought you all might have some input on how we might make this transition go easier on her.
