Thanks everybody! I got a couple of e-mail updates about Annie today:
"What we've learned in the last 16 hours:
1. Cats are scary.
2. Beds are different from floors. They have sides that can be fallen off of…twice.
3. The bottoms of food bowls cannot be licked through.
4. Some dogs are too short to drink out of the toilet like other dogs.
5. My Mom gave me something strange this morning when she left for work. I think she called it a "treat"."
and
"She's not food aggressive, but she definitely wants her share. I put everybody else's bowls down before hers and she was right there with a, "Where's mine?" look.
She didn't know what a treat was. I had to put it into her mouth. She already knows her name and is obviously very smart (she picked you for sympathy). I think she was very tired last night or else she's really mellow because she acted like she'd lived in that house all her life. She laid on the tile in front of the door from the living room to the dining room. She found a spot on the office floor when I checked e-mail. She stayed outside the bathroom when I took a shower but in sight and did the same this morning when I was getting ready.
When I brought her home, she got out of the car on her own. I had the garage door closed. When I opened the house door, Emma and Sable were standing there but she walked right in and kind of looked around with a "this will do" attitude. I let them all outside. Cassie immediately investigated then Annie started wagging her tail. The neighbors were outside and she walked up to the fence when I was talking to them. She hasn't figured out the running up and down the fence thingie yet, but then she may be above that sort of rowdiness."
So it sounds like Annie is doing great. I can't wait to get over there and see her this weekend.
