Well, yesterday after being under the bed all morning and most of the afternoon, Rocky discovered the joy known as the bedroom window. You know, the one with the big soft pile of blankets and a view outside and a great breeze coming in through the screens. Some of the other cats would jump up there, but then leave as soon as they realized it was a new cat up there.
He did start crying around three this morning, behavior I've only seen with cats who knew the outdoors. Hmm....
Anyway, he did go back to sleep finally, then when we got up this morning, he was under the bed. Where he hung out for a few hours, then he was back up in the window.
I'd much rather he was in the window than on top of the stereo.
I brought the box back into the office that Mario had been sleeping in and Mario immediately jumped into it and took a nap.
Very little growling today.
Yay!
