Mitzi greets me at the door when I get home from work most days - something she NEVER did when Mishi was around. Usually she would stay hidden.

She doesn't hide as much anymore, loves sitting quietly with me while I watch TV, read or pay bills and stuff. We have playtime almost every evening; she has her own playtime after I go to bed. I now find mousies all over the house. Every evening she chases her tail on my bed while I'm trying to sleep - it's SO funny and cute. I've tried to catch a video of her doing it, but I'm usually laughing too much to hold the camera steady.

She's meowing a lot more too. Nancy said she is finding her voice and it's such a cute squeaky voice, one of her new nicknames is Squeaker.

So she's thriving as an only cat. I do miss Mishi; I don't think Mitzi does, but Nancy gave me such a good reading on Mishi's passing, that I've gotten a lot of closure on it. I'm grateful I had the honor of being his guardian for four years. I had always wanted an orange Maine Coon and now I can say I've had the pleasure of owning one. I'd do so again in a heartbeat, but Mitzi's well being and happiness comes first for me now.
I now get greeted at the door, instead of the "Oh your home look". I think Squeak enjoys being an only cat, but she's definitely more needy! I'm glad the two of you are doing well.
