Wally comes out of his shell.

Wally has only been here for five days but I've seen so many changes in him already. He really is starting to come out of his shell now. Today he slept until I woke up(which wasn't until noon). We then played a game for maybe 20 minutes where he would drag his "Tigger" toy on a length of elastic from my bed off to his own bed. When he let go it would spring back up onto my bed and within seconds he would reappear to reclaim his "Tigger" and drag it back off to his bed again. Later on we played fetch, I threw a little soft ball across the room and he returned it six times in succession. He then found a warm place to chillout on top of my TV tuner/DVD/hard drive and for the first time since he arrived let me leave the room without screaming his head off. Later he spent at least 30 minutes charging around the room at lightening speeds, every time running through a tunnel of cushions I'd set up for him as part of his route. When i put him on my shoulder he was fine so long as it was in the rooms he knew but as soon as we went into a room he hadn't really seen he would start crying. His strength amazes me. He has dragged his pyramid bed and a soft case holding about 40 cd's across the room several times. He is learning things very quickly & remembers so much. I've had quite a lot of cats over the last 30 years but Wally is already proving himself to be something a bit special!
