My first impression was wrong; the older cats *have* noticed baby Beatrice,
and they are not pleased.

No major outward strife, since baby Beatrice stays in her temporary quarters
(a large cat carrier with a blankie, food dish and tiny litterbox) when Baby
Eyes is inside.

That's right, the mellowest kitty of the bunch is the one who's most upset
over the new baby. In fact, last night it was unsafe to let Beatrice run
loose in the presence of Baby Eyes.

Everyone else is only hissing a bit at her (and vice versa). In order of
most hissy to least hissy (after Baby Eyes): Billy, Lily, Tommy, Eli,
Abelard.

Eli hasn't actually hissed, but he hasn't done as well as Abelard, who lets
the baby sleep on top of him. Abelard has hissed just one time.

I tried to get a good pic of the two of them curled together, and failed due
to lack of light. I did post two new pics of Beatrice sleeping by herself
(see a.b.p.a.).

Since she is sooo tiny, you can really keep her separated but in their
presence for quite a long time. I imagine it will just be an eventual
acceptance.
