The kitten is actually being way more confident than I expected? I knew it had been handled a lot by kids in its previous home and it's not too young (11 weeks) but honestly it was exploring within 15 minutes of arriving! It used its litter box and ate pretty quickly too. I mean it was skittish but didn't hide!
And last night it snuggled up into DHs legs and had a snooze whilst we were watching TV!
Its having a rest beside me on the couch right now!
It did meow downstairs for a little while after we went to bed which was kinda heart-rending but actually it was probably only for about 5 minutes before it stopped, lol. And it was shattered so no doubt went to sleep pretty quickly.
It's not letting us touch it yet but that's to be expected and I keep telling the kids it's normal (all they want is cuddles).
I think it's going really well! 😍
