Note the mirror set in the wardrobe on the left. I now know why she goes to this end of the room.


Look I have a twin!

Ebby is so pretty. Looks like she's getting along well in her new home.

Chris,

She looks sooooo sweet, looking at herself in the mirror. If she is as "out in the open" like this right now, she will be fine! Now, we need to get the pup familiar with her!

I love the photos, keep them coming!

She looks a lot like my Abby, except Abby is a little uh...plumper, and has green eyes. Abby gets that same 'stern' look on her dface like your first picture.

Great new photos!!!!

But does this one say.......

"I think I'd like one of these of my very own."
a kotty sibling, of course

The looks on her face are just halarious. She reminds me of my late Gideon, a female short haired black feline.

Thanks so much...I just love my cat! However the feeling is not returned, not yet anyway, would you believe I have not stroked her yet! (except for when I met her in the shelter).
Up to now this is how its been; she seems to stay under the sofabed all day (she is eating and using the litter tray) and then come late afternoon/evening she will come out, eat some of her evening meal, then go hide on the sill behind the curtains, coming out for a little while then going back into hiding. Tonight was the first time she has sat up where she was photographed and stayed while I was in the room, when I took the pictures and just now when I stayed a while and read a book, so I guess that is progress.
Yes, I know I have to be patient with her, I am, and am prepared for a long haul....something I wasn`t prepared for was how very happy even the tiniest bit of progress makes me!
There will be more pictures and an update when I have them.

Those are beautiful photos of Ebony admiring herself in the mirror.
Have you tried getting her closer to you by using some tuna as a treat or a mouse on a string to play with at a safe distance?
Something tempting may get her closer to you quicker.

Okay, now I know I am crazy! It is nearlyy 35 minutes after midnight, I am sooo tired, yet here I am posting on Pet Talk and why? I just been stroking Ebby!! I go in there to say goodnight and she seemed interested so I gave her a treat, well more than one lol, and was able to stroke her a little. She went to her hidyhole so I turned out the light and made my escape, else I would have stayed all night!

Thats all folks! Goodnight!

Chris

Thanks Vermontcat, I just saw your post. You`re right that sort of thing does work. lol.

I actually gave a big smile whan you said you were petting her. It is very hard to stop when you make any small break through. Good for you both.

I am glad she is coming around!!! Good baby!

[krazyaboutkatz]

Chris, Ebby is very beautiful and I'm so glad that you were finally able to pet her. Next she'll be sitting in your lap. BTW I love the name Ebby.
