YAY!!! Wecome Zizu! I think the black and white parts will be the sweet kitty personality traits... WATCH out for the orange parts! :) The fact that she is responding to you petting her means she was probably a throw away vs a feral. THAT is a good thing. It took us a good three weeks to be able to even touch SK. Good luck on the introduction! It will probably go a lot smoother than you think. Hugs and congratulations!! Mom
Oh, that is exactly what I told the people at the vet clinic where they were keeping her. I told them if she were a true feral, she would not allow much in the way of human contact. Nope, Zizu cannot get enough petting, being held, having her tummy rubbed, etc. As far as toys, she obviously has had no experience with toys. However, I sprayed catnip oil on a trackball last night and she was actually playing with that. She has already given many indications that she is very smart. She catches on quick. I am trying to teach her that I cannot be petting her every second and that she can watch me from a very few feet away as I work on my computer--I ain't going anywhere. She will not be abandoned. I cannot for the life of me figure out what type of absolute IDIOT could throw away such a gorgeous, smart, affectionate baby. But, had they not, I would not have had the best birthday present EVER! I appreciate this little mite, trust me. She is absolutely adorable and a true love bug.
