Melody and Jared came by a bit after 7pm to drop off the kit. He appears more comfortable than ever with my office, on what's his fourth visit here over the last year and a half. I would not have guessed that a cat could remember something for that long, but I see it pretty clearly.

After depositing the kit in the office, the four of us went up to Intermezzo for dinner, which has become a typical pattern, then browsed at Moe's for a bit before coming home. We tried to stop at a bakery on the way back, but the furtive employee glanced up at the clock which showed a few minutes before 9pm when we tried the door, then wouldn't meet our eyes.

Melody and Jared eventually headed off around 10pm, as they have to get up at god-awful o'clock in the morning.

Tai Chi was acting ornery by 11pm, demanding to be let out of the office. So, I did, and he explored the whole house, got cornered by the other cats a few times, and ended up feeling very defensive. It's always the first couple of days that are the toughest, because he wants out, gets scared, but doesn't want to return to his safe space. Within a few days the other cats will still be hissing at him, but he'll be more aloof about it.

So becomes another week of catsitting my 5% of a cat.
