Adoption Tails: Fred, Coco and Luna, Keith, Anastasia

Fred

 Fred

1 day: Fred is doing well and has a good appetite. He is slowly gaining some confidence in his safe room and currently seeking pets as the owner replies to the message. The resident cat is currently kept separate from Fred but she is clearly upset when she can smell Fred. The owner understands the introduction process will take some time.1 week: Owner wants to return Fred2 week: She and Fred have gotten over the hurdle. He still has his moments but they will work through them together.1 month: The owner thinks they are all doing well now and have adjusted to Fred's high energy. The resident cat has also accepted him which was a relief. Fred is sweet and the owner is happy that she is able to provide him with a home.     

Eva and Hilda (previously Coco and Luna)

1 day: The girls are currently in luxury cat gaol (spare room totally kitted out for what's expected to be a long, slow settle in). They're eating well and using the litter. As the owner has been cautioned, the cats are timid and have been in hiding so she is just sitting in the room and talking to them knowing that she can see them but have not made any attempts to touch them at this stage. Right now, she is spending 5-10 minutes every hour or so in the room, talking quietly to them. The cats are watching her curiously. The owner is very happy that their appetite is increasing daily and that they're playing, especially at night and morning when they can be heard throwing toys around and being kitten like in general. "It's nice to lay in bed in the room next door and hear them having fun". The owner has changed their names to Hilda (white) and Eva (Dark) after her twin great great aunts.

Coco and Luna

1 week: Both girls are doing well. Hilda has become cuddly, purring and seeking out company. The owner is still working on Eva who is a purrer and will accept pats and being picked up though still very cautious. The cats will continue to stay in the spare room for a while and they haven't shown any real interest in wanting out of there and sometimes sill hide when the owner drops in to chat or get spooked by a noise on the street. Oftentimes, they are out in the room and stay that way which is nice to see. All in all, they are settling in well and eating well, "which has gotta be good".

 1 month: The girls are finding their feet and settling really well. Personalities are coming forward! They are happy and everything the owner would have hoped for.

Keith

1 day: Keith is good, he has used the litter tray and eaten some wet food. He is inside his little cat bed, watching the owners at the moment. Their other cats have had a sniff around him and said hi.1 week: Keith is having great fun. He is playing all the time. The other cats ignore him because they are all over the age of 10.1 month: no responseSuki (previously Anastasia)1 day: Ana is settling in very well, she's been eating and drinking and using her litter tray with no issues. She hid under the dresser for a bit when she was first brought home but seems pretty comfortable now. She slept on the owner's bed last night and has been following the family around the house! She's super playful and just so sweet. They have decided to rename her to Suki. "She is stunning, we're all completely bewitched!"

Suki
1 week: Suki is very happy! She follows the family around the house and loves being where the people are. She is so affectionate, especially in the morning before breakfast. When the owners come home from work, she is usually in the lounge room waiting.

Suki
1 month: Suki is dong really well. She made biscuits on the owner's shoulders for the first time a few mornings ago, "so cute!" She is sleeping like a bagel at the owner's feet right now.
