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.
