I got the kitteh. Her name is Butterbean.

I got Butterbean. She came out of the carrier and cautiously began exploring. She keeps looking up and I have a cat tree to put together for her. She has found a nook to nestle in which is fine. I don’t blame her for being leery.

Moonpie stayed in her chair. Tater scratched at the door and demanded to know what was going on. I will keep checking on her and staying with her for a while.

As the Supremes said, “You can’t hurry love.” Or even like or remotely tolerate.

(I will send pics soon.)

7. I remember him.

Butterbean will be thrilled that she shares his nickname.

8. She's a cat, acceptance will happen on her schedule

But I bet it'll happen soon, the KittyMonster took six years too accept me as her guardian and decided she could sleep with me after the kids had moved out.

Now it's meow meow meow continuously.

There is only one KittyMonster and only two of us now, not nearly enough.

13. I suspect that the kitten is looking at the situation differently

Kitteh is seeing it as "this hooman is mine, now do what you're told servant".
