| Looking outside. |
Since Kiki and I came to the new house, she's been confined to the main bedroom and attached bathroom so she wouldn't be overwhelmed by an entirely new space. A rug from Lowell is on top of the carpeting, the furniture is familiar, and her food station and litter box were located in the bathroom. Mostly Keeks stayed under the bed. Once, I saw her looking out the window with her little front paws on the sill. In Lowell, it seemed she never acknowledged the world outside The BungaLowell.
I made frequent trips into the bedroom throughout the days and the other day Kiki was lounging on the bedroom rug near the door and was startled when I entered. She launched herself under the bed when she saw me. Smart kitty always knows her hiding places.
Monday night, Keeks was meowing softly in the bedroom while I was in the living room. She seemed to be paying more attention to the magic portal to the living room through which I would appear and then disappear, and it seemed it might be time to begin introducing her to the rest of the house.

| Early exploration of the new habitat. |
Tonight, I opened the bedroom door, and after a few minutes, Kiki ventured out to the living room. Then back to the bedroom. And back to the living room. And back to the bedroom. She began staying longer in the living room, slinking around the perimeter of the room and sitting briefly at the screen door looking outside. Her exploration expanded to the dining room and then the kitchen before she arranged herself on the rug facing me. In another few days or a week, I'll start adding the two spare rooms and the guest bathroom for her exploration and soon, she'll have her entire realm at her pretty little paws. Baby kitty steps.
