Emmy's here! It is now Sunday morning and Emmy has been here since Thursday night. He and all the girls are doing really well. No one is upset or battling for a piece of territory.
Emmy settled in quickly and hasn't been in hiding or been abnormally skittish. He really likes the round part of the scratching post and spends lots of time there. Every morning he is lying on the other couch in the living room where Millie usually is. He and Biscuit are already chasing each other around which is just like old times. I can't wait to see if Emmy will start trying to start playing with Millie or Pepe. The first time he met Millie there was sniffing and he hissed a little but now they just sniff and walk by, not paying too much notice. The first time he met Pepe it seems as though Pepe had no clue he was even there because she was just walking by and froze when she saw him and started meowing and then left. But now I can tell that Pepe likes Emmy even more than Biscuit because Pepe and Emmy sniff noses when they see each other, whereas if Biscuit comes within a foot of Pepe she meows and swipes at her. I think it's a puffy pants competition thing.
We had a poker party here on Friday night and that went well. Pepe stayed in the orange bedroom all night and came out after the last guest left. Millie and Emmy were downstairs all night, sometimes hiding under the bed together. But when we came down they would come and see us so they weren't completely terrified or anything like that. Biscuit came up a couple times during the party and walked right through all the action. I also brought their food down since I think Millie and Emmy didn't really want to come upstairs where everyone was hanging out.
Next time I will post some pictures!
Sounds like everyone is getting along nicely, as Martha Stewart would say "it's a good thing"
