Just wanted to let you know everything went perfectly today when we met Keely. �Ron and I loved her, so we took her right away. �Mary was very helpful with her history. �Keelly meowed in the carrier until about halfway home, then she settled down. �(Think it was more the carrier than the company....as I sat in the back of the van petting her and talking to her the whole time.)

�

She is a beautiful cat. �A perfect mirror image of my beloved Smokey that I lost in April. �I thank you for rescuing her, and Christina for taking her into her home. �We got home at 3 p.m., and put her in our bedroom until she gets acclamated. �She hid under the bed, which I expected. �Between 4 and 5 I went in to lie down and watch TV, and by 4:15 she came out, �joined me on the bed and thoroughly enjoyed being petted. By 5 she didn't want to get off

�

the bed (she was too comfortable), so I took several pictures of her lying there all stretched out. �So I'd say she survived the day well. �Just got back from getting a sratching post at Petsmart.

�

I'll send you the pictures tomorrow. �Again, thank you, thank you all for your efforts.

�

Best regards ~

All is well with Keely. �She slept with us part of the night (when she wasn't exploring) and later this afternoon was checking out the whole house.

�

The first 2 pictures (keely on the bed) were yesterday about 5 p.m. �Her eyes look a little half mast, "cause I'm exhausted...they threw me in a carrier and CATNAPPED me".

�

The second 2 pictures were today about 5 p.m.....Keely "cool" on the cat tree, "this isn't so bad...I've even got a window where I can watch EVERYTHING."

�

Talk to you again~Marion

Here are some photos I took of Keely the last couple of months. � (In �some of them she is guarding the flowers I got for Mother's Day.) � She has adapted well, and is now staking out different spots in the house as her very own. � It is so much fun to watch her. � She is so curious. � She's learning how to play, and has become much more playful. � It's fun to watch her do her acrobatics trying to catch a miller bug. � She is so FAST! �She �has adapted so well, she even ignores the 4 grandchildren when they come to visit...doesn't hide any more but just lies on her favorite cushion (where she was napping) and let's them pet her. �

�

I'm SO glad you rescued her!

Best regards,
