Awwww, she's a very pretty little girl! I can see why you wanted to have her come home with you, I would have too.
I'm sure you'll get her little biting thing under control. It helps to put a stuffed toy in thier mouths when they feel biting is acceptable. Saying "gentle" while rubbing her paws and speaking soothingly is how I trained Phoebe and Sami at 5 weeks old. To this day, Phoebe even scratches the cat tree without claws!! ;) It works!
Good luck with her. More pictures when you can, she's too cute!

She is settling in better today. She slept all night with my daughter because she was not handling the cage well at all. This morning she was desperate to play and still doesn't quite know how to play with other cats. But she's getting better and Harry and Pouncer have been giving her a good run. Harry gave her a few very well placed swats and she looked at him stunned. I think its working, because she came to me and sat on my lap for few mintues and only once tried to bite. She will make a FABULOUS cat once the nipping stops. She is sweet, and playful (spunky! :D ) her motor is always ready to go, and she will fall asleep on your lap. Everyone's dream cat! Except the biting. I lied earlier. She's now on my lap trying to bite th stuffing out of me :rolleyes:
Carla, I had Jen trim her nails yesterday and my kids all have neat trim nails. I was worried about that too, especially after she gave Allen a big old swat on his face. If she had her full claws, he'd be sliced up BAD. I checked his eyes, so she didn't hit him there, but it was a hard swat and he kept pawing his face for a few minutes. I checked and she didn't break skin anywhere and he's just fine this morning... but I shudder to think of what would have happened if she hadn't been trimmed.

Hopefully,when she becomes more accustomed,to you,and the Resident Cats,shewill stop,biting so much,and calm down.The AWA Toys,that I sent you,areideal,for that,as they are very durable,and will exhaust a bit,of her energy! Good Luck,with your new Kitty!
