Rosie went off to her forever home on Friday. I made a follow up phone
call this evening and was told Rosie was fast asleep in bed with the
family's 7 year old daughter (seems like the hoomin training schedule
is going to plan). Some time between leaving me and arriving at her
new home Rosie went through a transformation and is now a lap fungus -
with me she was never still for more than a few seconds, just long
enough to be stroked once or for her to do a 'hit and run' on a
passing foot/ankle.

That's funny. She sounded exhausting when you described her. Maybe
she's feeling a little clingy from being adopted, or that might be her
adult personality starting to peek through!
At 7 years old, a child has just starting grade school, is starting to
do a little homework, starting to take on a few responsibilities.
Maybe the ideal age to be introduced to a companion who will be with
her even into adulthood.

She was exhausting, imagine a kitten as the ball in a pinball machine
and that was Rosie. :-)
As she (Rosie) was found wandering the streets as a 6-8 week old
kitten you have to wonder what her earlier life was like, maybe she
didn't have toys and mousies to play with or people to cuddle/stroke
her.

Another successful fostering. Well done, Shirley.
