Rachel Shadow segment you shouldn't miss (humor)

The little angel slept with me throughout the night, up and down a lot, but safe.
She is using the cat box and seems healthy. She is a voracious beggar, clearly lacking any training or manners lol.

Petunia of all has been the most curious about Shadow, but they're still keeping safe distances which happen to be maybe six feet or so.

Cuddles might have the biggest issue with this as he seems a little jealous. He slept in places last night that he hasn't before, and only came up on the bed once for his chin bath and cuddles.

I'll be walking him in an hour or so, so that should help him. Shadow has been sleeping all morning too, maybe the first truly restful sleep she's had in some time. She has made no effort to go back outside, no crying or any other signs of emotional or physical distress.

The thing that fascinates me so much is that her personality is so similar to all my previous "special cats", Spook, Snuggles and Petunia have all been Daddy's girls and Shadow is in that exact role now too.
She curls up to me in a completely docile on her back posture, let's me caress her belly, and of course she can't get enough of my goatee as a replacement tongue.

I've spent a lot of time with Petunia this morning and she seems ok with me.
I'll get some more pictures today and post later.
Back into the Shadows we go lol.

She wouldn't be cuddly with you if you didn't have a good heart to share with her.
