...well, sort of.

kitty!

She seems perfectly content to semi-doze in the carrier. (And perfectly content to ignore ribbons and other fun things.)

It's ... kind of what I was expecting, and kind of encouraging because she's not totally flipping out, and kind of disappointing because she didn't immediately go "yay lap! let me jump up and doze and purr" even though I wasn't seriously expecting that. All things considered I'd rather have a calm uneventful homecoming than an Exciting one, but. idk.

I was hoping to get a better picture of her. Maybe later.

(apparently the foster mom had her for something like two years. I can kind of understand that -- mellow cats are less adoptable than "HI I AM CUTE KITTY LOOK I PURR AT YOU TAKE ME HOME PLZ" cats, and although I didn't know this before recently, black cats are less adoptable than others -- but still, I felt a little guilty on behalf of the foster mom, who's had this long to bond with her, and the cat, who's had the same home for a while and I don't think has realized yet that she's been moved. But then again, this gives the foster mom (who pointed this out) the chance to save some other kitty from a euthanizing shelter, so it's all good in the long run.)

(I am still both excited and terrified and flaily)

About an hour ago she ventured out of the carrier -- first a paw, then the whole leg, then her head, then bit by bit coming out until she was sitting on the couch

and then lounging

and then, after not that long, hopping down and exploring.

(no pics of that, sorry.)

She is making these adorable mrrrp? noises and being altogether, er, adorable. And catlike.

(And she knows where the litterbox is, and has been shown food and water, so all is well in that sense)

Guess how many times I got distracted-by-kitty while writing this entry?

...rhetorical question.

(mrrrrp)

ETA back on the couch -- was that a noise? Read more... ) ...eh, whatever. Read more... )

Not pics this time. Nope. This part's interactive.

Basically, I want to rename her, because her current name is a bit too ... glurgey? ... for my tastes. I have a shortlist, and I'm waiting to see what fits her best (and for some reason I keep calling her Sunshine; wtf, self?), but I figured you guys might have some possibilities I could consider. :D
