I got lucky with this little girl. Settling in very quickly indeed! This evening she discovered snoozing on top of the bed is much more comfortable than hiding underneath it. :) And yes, she lets me pet her and if I lean towards her she gives me a head bump. It's comical. I'm letting her deal with things at her own pace but she seems to be quite happy. Meanwhile, I'm watching 'The Crawling Eye', a cheesy old horror movie on TV (Svengoolie) which is ridiculously stupid. Jill
