Shadow

Shadow the cat is here. She seemed excited and curious at first, but after my parents left and stayed gone she got pretty upset, and has since been avoiding me, sneaking around with her tail down, and hissing at me if I seem to be approaching her deliberately.

This is not at all like the last in-home cat-sitting job I did! I hope she gets over it soon.

Heh, I hear her using the litterbox now, so some of it's going right.

Change scares the crap out of cats (unless your Amanda's Bandit evidently), but she'll adjust. How long do you have her? Pretty soon she'll be rubbing herself all over you to claim you as hers. (erm, that sounds a bit dirty, but you know what I mean).

well bandit got used to moving (she did have 4 homes in less than 4 months) did you try plying her with treats?

Treats & toys is a good idea. I'll get some on the way home today. She likes the shaky-can things.

They also got these catnip-filled little mice toys, both of our cats go nuts over them.
