So don't tell Eva....

[conuly]

but I worry that her cat may be auditioning other families for the role of "Her People".

Which I'm fairly certain is what happened to the last cat she smuggled into this house. He used to jump into people's cars.

I don't even know what to do here. Obviously we flubbed intro-ing the cat to the other animals in the house. Can we get a do-over on that? Should we even try?

Some cats have very strong preferences to be not just dominant but the only cat or only pet. Female, even spayed, cats are more territorial than males (although males get that way too, but younger ones are often friendlier to others). Adult cats are less flexible about this than young ones. If this cat isn't bonded strongly with Eva and feels miffed, she may indeed decamp.

I have been on the receiving end of decamping cats (the fabulous Mr. Kibbles was only the most recent) and have also had to rehome.
