Melody has adapted well! She’s loving being a big sister to her human brother and sleeping all day on the couch on her blanket she chose her first night here! Girl has put on some weight! She’s definitely taken to the family like she’s always been here. We had to make a place for her on the window sill, so she can watch the birds.
