Me and my (other) shadow?

Ever since we have brought Tabby into the house, she has stuck to us like glue ~ following me from room to room just like Midnight always does and if I am ever out of her sight, she begins to cry like a baby. She seems to be having a bit of a hard time adjusting and the fact that the other cats are being, in my hubby's words "a-holes," is probably not helping the situation much. But, I have faith that in the end things will eventually work themselves out once all parties understand that no one is leaving! LOL!

Under the circumstances though, I think she is doing fairly well, lounging around on our furniture like a real pro. This further solidifies, in my mind anyhow, that she obviously was a house cat before at some point. She has put up with a lot of verbal abuse from our other kitties who like to hiss and growl (but no hitting so far, thank Goddess) at her the minute she gets too close to them when you can see that all she really wants to do is befriend them. Through it all, she has not gotten aggressive with them at all ~ not a once!

She has an appointment this coming month for both her booster shot and her front declawing which I have scheduled the week of my vacation in September. I am hoping that by that time she will have stopped begging at the front door to run outside, but I have a feeling that we will have to be very cautious and not allow ourselves to ever become complacent with her on that issue.

All in all, she is really such a little sweetheart and we just adore her so!
