Congratulations! I just adopted a kitty too on Sunday, so she's still acclimating. But she did get used to me at the rescue so she already headbutts me and lays on me...
I'm sure you already know, but let her go at her pace. There's no rush, as long as she's eating, drinking and toileting. Maybe she never comes around, and that's okay too. But I'm sure with patience and time, she'll come around. Also, thanks for adopting. I'm sure she appreciates, even if she never shows it (because... cat. ya know?) <3
I'm trying not to rush her, but she's just so fuzzy and cute!
i understand :) it hard to not keep giving them attention. My cat gets annoyed with me because she just wants to nap, but I always want to pick her up for cuddles and pets and shit haha <3
