I finally found him and moved a chair to capture him. He didn't run and let me hold him for a minute then he just had to get away. Before I grabbed him to hold him, he was doing the head bumpie thing against my leg and hand. Progress.

Miley isn't being very nice - doing lots of hissing and gutteral sounds. Just what I thought she would do. I will let him explore again tonight, with Miley behind closed doors.

I must let this happen - just don't want him to get sick from being upset. I am beginning to wonder just how socialized this cat was..... well, like I said, Gabe took a couple of days before he felt comfortable walking past Miley aka Sybil.

So, probably won't have any pictures for a few days.

By the way, when I held him, he didn't fight me and he was so warm and full bodied and silky. It was like holding a panther. I am not kidding. So different from the feather weight Miley girl.

I shall keep you posted, for sure.

Shhhhhhhhhhh. It is going smoothly, just not quickly!
