I put Shadow out last night and shut the door, 20 minutes later he came in
through the cat flap. Normally I lock the flap at night to keep Baggy in but
I left last night so Shadow could get out. When I got up this morning Shadow
was still here, I think I'm now owned by a clowder of three.
Another thing I noticed today, Shadow now holds his tail vertically so he's
obviously relaxed and happy.

He sounds like he's doing great.
May he quickly come over to the light completely. Now that Molly has taken
the final steps to accepting us, well lets just say I refuse to complain
about her also turning into a real brat.
She does have a new nickname. Little one, and baby girl are being replaced
by tiger.

I can imagine Baggy teaching him a few naughty tricks. ;o) He's already
getting more vocal.

I have had cats for a few years and never heard that about vertical
tails = "relaxed and happy" before.

We usually don't read cats as well as they read us. Its no wonder they can
read us so well. They can communicate so much with just their tails and
ears. They really give meaning to body language.

Never seen a cat come running for dinner with its tail held high?
