Thanks all, for your support and concern. The ones that were adopted have been vaccinated for distemper and FeLV and I have cleaned up the house since the others have gone. Vet said that the virus that causes FeLV does not live long away from a host. However, the distemper is more persistant. I did not mention their ages. Happy is about 1-1/2 years old and the Russian Blue is supposedly about 7 mos. old. (I am thinking of naming her "Puma" because she looks so much like a mountain lion, especially this morning when she discovered the cat tree!) But because of the slow maturation of the Russian Blues, she could be older. She has emerald green eyes, with a few faint tabby marks on her tail.
Tiara is a little unsure of Happy. This morning when I sat in my chair with a cup of coffee, she came and laid in my lap, but got up and moved immediately (after happy cat climbed on board also), when Happy saw Tiara getting scritchies, and he wasn't. I suppose it is a matter of time before they both will lay in my lap.
Happy slept with me on the bed last night, although Puma is still a little afraid of the hisses she encounters. But I did manage to get her to lay next to me on the covers after midnight. I heard her sneezing, and wanted her to sleep on the electric blanket. As soon as she did, her sneezing stopped.
