Oh - the kindle/chocolate was my set up for my idea of "great saturday night", left the room to get myself a drink and came back to this cat invasion hehehehe

You will find something the kitty likes and then stick to it, giving her various things may cause a tummy upset.

Re skinny - did you weigh her when you got her? Weigh every few days, away from siblings she should be putting weight on.

Not sure if she has been wormed?

We weighed her on the kitchen scales this evening. My daughter suggested it so strange that you mentioned it. She weighs 948 grams and that seems to be about average for her age. She seems to be getting on ok with the tinned food now. It is a good quality one and she has that one feed and then alternates with dried food. Seems to have normal toilets.

She has become very relaxed. We are keeping her in the kitchen diner which is very warm. Earlier on she was sleeping stretched out on top of the sideboard but most of the time she is on her blanket. She has also started using the scratch post. She likes lots of attention and meows at us if we are not taking notice.

Today she has eaten quite a bit and slept a lot. I think she is catching up after having a stressful time. I think she trusts us now because we have been spoiling her.

948 grams is not bad from what I remember - Macius was much smaller than that and so was George and Phoebe....

You could always try a warm water bottle wrapped in blanket for her to cuddle up to..

All my lot slept with me or with their foster mum Zara my GS when they were little

Now you can see why I wanted her when I spotted her on Gumtree.
