meera's first day

Meera moved into the new apartment tonight. Poor little thing. Corey drove her over, and she had an "accident" in her little kennel. She's never done that before. This has to be a traumatic experience for her, as she's never ever lived outside of our little two-bedroom apartment in Berkeley. The new place is almost three times the size . . .

We let her start in the living room and she went around slowly, sniffing all of the baseboards, rubbing up against Corey's legs, and making every step slow, careful, and deliberate. You can see her pose in the picture above, butt down and head up. I'm no kitty cat expert, but I would guess that's a defensive posture.

We got her in the bedroom by the end of the night, and now she's walking around doing some more exploring. She tends to be semi-nocturnal, prowling around for a bit, then snuggling with Corey or me until 5am, when she decides it's time for a good nose-licking and wakes one of us up.

But I'm sure this will still be a difficult adjustment for her, so send positive thoughts her way . . .
