Aw, I feel so sorry for Frank. A chap prepared to be a friendly uncle to a
baby kitty and a victim of mistaken identity!
Poor old lad.
I've been following the threads, but not had time to respond, got excited
along with you, but your nervousness almost made me feel sick too, Marina
;-) I can imagine it well.
It sounds to me like it will all go fine.
I have a black and white tuxedo girl - I know what they're like. Grumpy and
with attitude issues. (Who, me? says KFC) Yes, you, says meowmie..

Best of luck with the integration

Oh, P.S. You think you remember what it's like to have a kitten. You
don't. You are now going to have your memory refreshed. <big evil grin>

This is the only cat I have ever seen who, if you pick her
up and she is not in the mood, "stiffarms" you, sticking her
paws in your chest and staring at you exactly like "who the
%$# do you think you are?" until you put her down. She
also walks by a rack of shiny mugs and slaps her reflection
in passing--almost every time. She is overweight and so
lumbers like a bear. :) And if you shoo her even just a little
bit, like out from under your feet in the kitchen, she will
NOT move right away, but if you persist, she will stomp off,
hissing in parting. :)

I daren't pick Kitty FC up, because mostly she doesn't want to. However if
she is in the mood to be luvvin, she will come and perch on my chest and
purr her heart out. It is often inconvenient but I feel privileged and put
up with it. She always seems to choose a time when I need to feed the fire.

That's a girl with attitude!

Kitty Farmcat is very small. She maybe weighs 4 lbs, if that, but is
*extremely* fierce.

And if you shoo her even just a little

Yep. Boyfriend is getting bigger maybe 9 lbs now and she still scares him
to death. He is getting wise. He lets her bully him. He's a pacifist. He
never wants any trouble, he just lets her bat him round the head when she's
in a bad temper and says "whatever"
He's a darling.

Sometimes I wish he'd turn on her and smack her back. Not very likely.

Scarlett is small and fierce. ;) I am amazed when she goes after
Rhett (probably 3x her weight now). And Shamrock. Bonnie, she has
some healthy respect for. lol

Lol! Well, what can I say? Other than T girls can choose to be very bad
girls indeed.

Frank thanks you for your sympathy. This morning, he didn't care about
the little girl hissing and growling (!) at him. He would sit at a
distance, looking at her. Then he got up, moved a few steps closer, and
sat down to look at her again. She kept up her pathetic, tiny hisses and
growls all the time. Frank ignored the sounds completely. One day, he is
going to reach her and probably give her a good wash in spite of her
protests. I'm pretty sure about this. :o)

It's all starting to come back to me. Mere's hoolikittenism is starting
to emerge.
