Jasper found my wife's lap last night after I went to bed, then found my lap
this morning while I was enjoying coffee and browsing news headlines
before leaving for work.
He's come out again this evening; we've given him lots of attention.
Jasper's coming out to us gradually. Shouldn't be more than a few days
before he's more comfortable with us and coming out more.
He's a winner so far.
We're glad to have him.

Nice. Don't force anything. Let him do it in his own good time. But climbing into your lap, that's a good sign.

Yeah, Jasper's been out more with us this evening, which seems good,
but he's retreated again.
Considering that he's found his poo box and food on his own,
and he's showing himself to us more, we're fairly confident that he'll
settle in to letting us give him a good home.
There's been more time each day spent with us, and he loves our attention.
It'll be soon that he's at ease with us, and we're making sure it goes well.

He's coming along just fine, I think, Craig.

Time and patience. And TLC of course. That's all it takes.

Oh, he's expanding his outreach today!!
Jaspers's been out for a lot of today while I've been home and my wife has gone to Detroit
for funerary services for her family.
Jasper's been exploring everything he can, and has been demanding attention instead of
asking. He's been out most of today while exploring, and talking to me with his chirping
voice, almost continuously seeking attention.
He seems to understand that he'll no longer be bullied by the cat he was with,
and he's really opening up to being here with us. I think he's even taking to the name
we've given him, in spite of the two years of age proposed by the shelter we adopted from.
He's becoming the adorable and cuddle-loving cat we've hoped to have for a long time,
and settling into the role with great aplomb.
He's been exploring a lot, while often settling into looking out the sliding glass door,
as well as taking up a perch in the bedroom's window seat. He's taken to wandering around,
exploring and talking to us frequently. He vocalizes with us by chirping. He's adorable,
and we're loving having him with us.
He took over my couch armrest today, impulsively.
I decided he couldn't take over completely, so I arranged an under-table situation for him.
He's gonna be just fine with us, and we love having him here with us.
