Welcoming New Family Member - Choco the Cat
We adopted a 2 to 3-year-old female cat from the Burnaby SPCA this afternoon. Cute black and white domestic medium hair. We've named her Choco.
Aside from peeing in her transport box in the car, thereby getting covered in urine and mandating a bath as her first event in her new home, poor thing, (amazingly she didn't claw us) she's doing very well. Very sociable and steadily exploring more of the house. It will take awhile to teach her that our turtle Midori is not prey or a toy, though!
She's shedding like crazy from the stress, but we hope that'll clear up as she gets more relaxed.
Here's Choco cuddling with me in my office on her first day home.
