Just to report: she's doing fine. Hid out all yesterday in the tallest cupboard shelf in our house. But, right now, she's sleeping next to me on the couch, purring. She is a beautiful cat, seems skinny, but young cats tend to be, I guess. She's eating her cat food, seems interested in people food. Uses the cat box. Doesn't seem to mind staying indoors. She's curious and friendly, and I think she's fitting in to our family very well. Thank you!
