Guarded optimism is what Barbra is saying...me too! Oh she is so sweet . Miley may need a long time..she may never LOVE the little one but I think she will accept her on HER OWN TERMS and in her own time. Ti I think is just soo happy to have someone (other than you) to play with and interact with. The nose biting..Maya used to do that too. Now she just grabs my nose between her two paws and washes my nose. Yuck!!!
