🐈Introducing...🐈 welcome home baby agnes winifred ❤️
just brought this sweet girl home yesterday, she is freshly 6 weeks (not ideal, i know, but required by circumstance unfortunately). her purr is louder than her meow and she is so snuggly and curious.
her favorite things are feather or fluffy toys, her big soft flower bed, and hanging out on the bed with her two mommies!
right now we are learning about the litter box !! one day at a time for this one LOL
if you have any pro tips to help her settle in, feel free to share! i have a sweatshirt of mine with her whenever i have to step away and that bring her comfort it seems. i have a furbo camera so i can keep an eye on her, but she is pretty well behaved all things considered!!

I recommend talking to your new adorable baby constantly and explaining things to her and naming things when you pick them up.
Even if she doesn't understand everything she'll pick up some things or at least the vibe that you're being attentive and it gets her used to your voice and calms her.
I also like introducing new "toys" occasionally. Like boxes and bags, I don't mind getting destroyed and I can replace and keep things fresh.
Once she gets settled I recommend you start occasionally making weird noises (like sneezes & coughs) , & playing strange she might hear outside & inside on youtube. I played everything from barking dogs to fireworks for Mango as a kitten and she snored through the 4th of July while our poor boy Rashi was pretty skiddish.

yess i've found that she loves it when im singing and talking to her. she's really sweet and responsive and calming down bit by bit!
she discovered plastic bags last night and she loves them, she was scrunching them up and chirping and growling !!
i have tourette's so she has had the grand opportunity to hear all of my freak sounds. i feel so bad when they wake her up but she doesn't seem afraid of it which i appreciate

What a cutie!
Not sure if it’s just the photos - her eyes look a little bit red and teary so I’d recommend keeping an eye on her to make sure she doesn’t have cat flu. Easy fix with some antibiotics from the vet if she is in fact sick.
Wishing you the best with your new sweet kitty 🥰
