Oh my gosh Im so so excited. :jump: Could this day go any slower?!?!?!?! :x
Only a few more hours before we set off to VA!!! :drivecar: Thanks so much to everyone for your love and support and I will def post pics asap when I get home. I just cant wait for our first hug when I see her! :hug:
And I was also wondering for those of you with multiple pet homes did you ever get nervous right before getting a new pet about disturbing the delicate balance with your other pets? :? I noticed that right before we get a new pet, though Im excited, at times I get very anxious and nervous that my other pets will get upset and we will lose their sweet personalities due to the change. I have 3 kitties :c*t: :c*t: :c*t: right now at home. Griffin and Hunter are brothers that we adopted together when they were 6 weeks old so they have never known a life without each other. Last year we adopted our third kitty Dexter. I was so nervous right before he came that Griffin and Hunter would hate us forever. The first 2 days was rough with lots of chaos but after that it was fine. I dont know if thats due to Dexter's overwhelming easy going and sweet nature or what though as he made himself at home right away despite the other two hissing at times at him. He never raised a paw and continued to rub up on then and play and I dunno maybe he just wore them down? Either way Hunter softened up and started to snuggle with him soon after. Griffin took some more time as he is the alpha cat but he stopped hissing and would just avoid Dexter if he didnt want to be around him. Now they are fine and even this morning they were curled up on the couch together asleep. I worry a little about upsetting the cats even though Im almost 99% positive that Hunter, once he stops being afraid will be fine, and Dexter will most likely be fine off the bat. Griffin I fear will be harder to adjust but the other thing I think is that he did adjust to Dexter and thats another cat on his turf and a dog is a little different. My husband says I always worry myself to death and that the animals will be fine Itll take them a little to adjust and then they will be fine. Any reassurance would be appreciated!
