Adoption Tail: Maggie

 Maggie

1 day:  She is settling in well in the bedroom. The owner will probably keep her name as Maggie. She has been eating/drinking and using the litter. Even climbs on top of the owner at night purring and wanting to leave the safe room already.

1 week:  She is settling in well. Seems quite comfy in the rest of the apartment.

1 month: Maggie is going well. She is very affectionate on her own terms and meows a lot when the owner gets home from work. "I wish I didn't have to leave her for so long each work day." She loves playing with the cat wand toy with the owner and loves racing around the apartment. She never uses the bed the owner bought her or the scratching post cat tree. Maggie likes to sleep at the end of the bed and to relax on the couch together. The owner tried applying Revolution Plus to her and only managed to get one drop on. Creamy treat was used to get Maggie to stay close but it didn't work. Eventually, she gave up after 10 minutes of chasing her around the apartment and Maggie getting increasingly irritated. There was a singular incident where Maggie inappropriately peed on the owner's bed and the owner has since added a second litter tray that is in the bathroom which Maggie seems to be happy about. 

1.5 months: Maggie used to barely touch her dry biscuits until the owner switched the bowl since it was likely too deep. She would happily eat from hands or now on a plate. Increasingly, she is finishing off all her biscuits and would not have anything overnight. She also loves her wet food! The owner is adjusting the amount of dry vs wet food so that she is more satiated with a larger volume of wet food since Maggie is such a foodie. They are also going to a mealtime schedule so that Maggie is not begging for food all the time and can learn to expect when to eat. 

2.5 months: Maggie has slowed down her eating and has been on a meal schedule. There was a few vet visits due to bloody stools but she is all okay now. She just celebrated her 3rd birthday!
