Right on schedule, pretty Annie! One of the newest UKers here, hee hee.

Welcome to the UK Annie and to your new life! You have been a very, very brave girl. I'm sure you will settle down and start to feel at home soon. You have lots of lovely new brothers and sisters to meet.

These are great pictures, everyone looks so happy. The cake is just wonderful!! What a lovely blue tabby!

Good morning, darling girl!!!! I hope you had a good night in your new home! Maybe your mom will fix your something delightful to eat today, huh??

We love you, Annie.

Okay, I apologize for being so negative about the whole thing. I'm so relieved that she had a safe trip and glad that she's already out of her carrier to explore, even if it's only under the bed. Especially with all the love she'll be getting.

Jen, ya did a great job girl. I know how much it hurts to give one of your kitties up. But just remember, it was for the BEST reason of all.

I'm sorry I couldn't contribute to her voyage. But I know she's going to have a happy life and that PIF will give us continuous updates.

PIF, thank you for giving Sweet Annie such a wonderful home. Give her hugs and kisses from across the ocean from me and the gang.

moosmom, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, I certainly have enough opinions myself

I am very relieved that Annie got here with no trouble, I was terrified that English customs would prevent her entry, even though we had the paperwork checked twice by Defra.

When we saw our Annie girl, she was so fed up a little scared but NO airplane ears. I think she was very very bored in her cage for such a long time.

What a darling face, she is even more beautiful in person than she is in photos and I loved seeing her photos. I love her little milkly white chin and her big round eyes

Here is this mornings update.....

We left Annie under the chest of drawers over night.

When I woke up, I discovered if my head was in a certain position whilst lying in bed, I can see Annie & she can see me. So I was whispering to her and she did a double blink cat hello, so I did a double blink back. Soon we were double blinking for England. Her ears are up and interested so though she is very wary I don't think she is terrified, though her eyes are still very round. Jen does she normally have very round eyes like our Milo; it is hard to tell on photos ?

I also noticed little footprints in the litter tray, dry food was very slightly lower and she had knocked two toys off the chest of drawers

Proof that our young lady has been out and about over night; so sleeping humans are not scary which is good news.

Tigs & Bramble were destroying the shut bedroom door this morning; a Steve forgot to shut the cats in the living room …nawtee Steve.

So I let them in for a few minutes for a quick cuddle.

Tigs and Bramble had seen Annie and both stared at her for a moment when they were on the floor in our room, so I enticed them onto our bed and blanket chest for a quick play session.

Annie actually crawled from the back left corner to the front middle so she got watch Tigs & Bramble play with a feather rod (I tried to interest Annie earlier but she’s not interested in playing yet, but soon she will)

Then without warning Annie ran out from under the chest of drawers and under the blanket chest Bramble & Tigs were playing on !!!

Annie is definitely interested in the other cats. Tigs jumped down from the blanket chest to run under and unexpectedly nearly ran into Annie and give a surprised hiss, so I scooped him up and removed him from the room.

Bramble has gone to sleep on our bed and I hadn’t got the heart to move her as she didn’t get any bed access last night. So I left her and Annie in our room and came down here to update everyone.

It is all so wonderful! She is here and settling in so well with her new home and family ...... wonderful.

Hugs to Jenny & Steve, and kisses to Annie, and all the feline crew!

Thanks so much for the update on Annie.

Now, if that was my Emma, she would still be in the carrier, cowering in the corner! So, it sounds as though Annie has just the right attitude and trust to check out her new living quarters and her new siblings.

I am so happy that this story has a wonderful ending!.............

but..but, don't stop telling us about her every move!
