2. I'm looking forward to having her here

She is such a cuddly, fluffy kitty and ahs a sweet disposition.

What is hilarious is when the other family adopted her they were told she was a Maine coon cat. Lily is a long haired tabby with white markings, very much like pictures you see of Maine coons - but she weighs maybe ten pounds and has tiny little feet. Not Maine coon cat traits since they are known for being large with big feet.

I hope I can get Tashi to be nice to her - but he is very unpredictable. At least the two cats kind of know each other but they've never had to share space. The other part is the cat door - Tashi is used to it but Lily never offered to come in through it even if she found it. I think it will be safe to leave it alone. Even if Lily goes out through it, she knows the farm and the area around the house.

I really can't keep Tashi locked up - he gets revenge by attacking me if I won't let him go out (or feed him fast enough or give him fresh water if he thinks his is stale or let him have my chair when he thinks it's his turn...). But as I said, Tashi has mellowed a lot and is not as aggressive as he used to be.
