Max adapted very well to our house. The first day he avoided Ellie and only came out when she wasn't around, but now he'll hang out upstairs even when she's playing. He caught one mouse, brought it to us to show us, and then dropped it while we were praising him. To our knowledge, he never re-caught it. We did see a bloody trail, though, so we're giving him a mouse-point anyway.I can smell cat in our house, which doesn't thrill me. (Admittedly, I have a super-sensitive nose, so I'll be interested to hear what other people say.) I don't understand why, since I never notice a smell at Jen's house or on her.
But it is awfully nice to sit around with a warm cat on my lap. I could get used to that.

I'm sorry there's a smell... At least it means you won't fall too in love with my handsome little hunter. :-) Next time I'm over, I'll let you know if I notice anything.
I'm a blogger now. Hope this comment shows up because the last one didn't. (Apparently, I'm still working out the kinks.)
Ok....I have two cats and my house never smells. I'm extremely sensitive in the scent department, as you may remember! Here's what you do: Buy one bag of Natures Miracle Cat Litter and mix with half a bag of World's Best cat litter. Both are all natural and Natures Best smells like a christmas tree. Scoop AT LEAST once per day. Keep the litter box in a basement or laundry room. Brush the cat once a week and "bathe" with a warm wet washcloth w/ a few drops of citrus essential oil. Alternately, they sell cat "bath" wipes at PetSmart. Vacuum at least twice per week.
