It was pretty funny now that I can look back on it. I am so glad your come back. Thank goodness. I am glad Ember is slow to get out.
That is a really good plan. I thought that Ember would be fine since you would be with her most of the time. That is the most important thing, that she feels good about the situation. That it is a positive experience. And if someone wants to hang out and it can be a positive then that is great.
Hahahaha, that is always how it is. Yes, she could be looking for warmth more now. In the summer it will be easier to tell if she is not using it.
He was amazingly tame. Got along with the cats BUT he HATED the raccoons. He would flip and get aggressive and hiss to the raccoons. It was actually really scary. I think the food was a big part of building trust with the opossum. I guess that is true for most animals though.
Hahahahaha, you made me laugh about the foul language. I think my cats have told me off a few times. Yes, the fact he doesn't use his force to the fullest tells me that he isn't aggressive. If he wanted to hurt he would and he chooses not to hurt. That tells a lot. It is a conscious thought of his.
That is really positive. The others don't fear her. I think the newest is usually more cautious about going to inconvenience others etc. There is a hierarchy. And Ember (since she is newest) probably defers to Frost and Ash more. And that can cause some of the tension at times because cats don't always like to be at the bottom. Not that Ember is really at the bottom because she gets a lot of attention etc but when it comes to them solely she probably feels a bit more cautious because of her standing. I hope that makes sense. It is wonderful that they really have that much of a bond with you and each other.
Hahahaha, yes. They can be moody. Most get over things quickly. The more confident they are the more they can overcome and move on. I think you have done a really good job with your cats.
