Miss Teia is 14...
17 December is the day we designated as Miss Teia Honey's birthday from the back story we have of her life before coming to join us.
It seems as if she has been aging backwards since we all arrived here in Maryland.
Yesterday she was acting kitten-crazy, so I took out the laser pointer. She was very much into trying to catch the "red bug." She was a bit frisky this morning, so it was "bug" time again. She has already figured out that the little silver thing I hold in my hand projects the dot, she looked at my hand and then down to the carpet...anticipating where the bug would be.
A few days ago, we had a fairly close encounter between Teia and Chessie.
We think that Teia's previous family included a chubby grey cat that picked on her. Chessie fits that description.
Teia has, before now, hissed and run away from Chessie, who has been trying to make friendly advances for over a year.
The other evening, Chessie came downstairs and was laying on the bottom landing. Miss Teia went over, even made it as far as the bottom step a couple of times, to look at Chessie. They exchanged very pro forma hisses, but no growls.
Once we have a house, I'm thinking all three girls will get along much better than in Illinois, when the smells and territories were overlaid by other kitties past and present.

Thanks for the narrative, Pip. Wishing you, Anita, and the girls a warm Christmas. I had the same feeling about MIss Teia:). Such fun!

I had a feeling Ms Teia would end up taking over. No more anxiety for HER. lol.
...and tonight, Miss Teia chased Hildie part way up the stairs. Looks like Teia has decided that she is Boss Cat.
(Meanwhile, Chessie seems content to stay upstairs most of the time in the bedroom and sitting room, heard her chasing her mousie around...sounded like a little elephant dancing on the roof. :) )
