I am a dung beetle.... constantly pushing shit around

Flisters, we have had results at last! The Great Cat Hunt has been on since Easter, but it's really hard to find a suitable indoor cat when all the shelters insist on the cats should have outdoors access. Because of living on a road with a good deal of traffic, that's just not something we dare offer them. (I mean, it seems to be going okay for the neighbours' cat who come into our garden a lot, but I really don't have that sort of bravery) And on top of that, there's the added difficulty of finding one that can be put together with an older cat and preferably not look like the older cat OR the cat that came before it. It has not been easy!

HOWEVER! Yesterday the God of Cats finally smiled down on us, and we drove nearly two hours each way, coincidentally to the same shelter that Holly came from. (And you know what, now that I think of it, I'm not entirely certain, Holly did not actually live in that very same cage...)

So here's Daisy! She's 27 weeks old and seems to be settling in. She has not yet met Holly (who is protesting wildly against the closed door), but she is interested in her surroundings and has had a good long nap on Husband's lap today. If she continues to settle in well, we will probably try to let them meet briefly on Sunday and see how that goes. Tonight, they will swap ends of the house, so Holly can get a good sniff at Daisy's smell and Daisy can explore the rest of the house before meeting Holly.
