New room for Anakin!

Anakin has been upgraded to our Cat Room from the spare bedroom.  And he LOVES it!  Especially the super tall cat tower.  He is going to be a climber!

He has also taken to play-attacking feet.  While this is one of the more annoying things I feel kittens do, it is a GREAT sign for Anakin.  It shows that he is finally starting to warm up a little bit to us humans and not be afraid.

Anakin now also eats all of his meals on our laps.  We sit on the floor and he will come to us right away once he smells the food and hops right up.  Petting is going a tiny bit better but he still won't allow it without a food motivator.

We are also looking into getting him another foster kitten to play and socialize with.  Our older grumpy cats don't want to play with him--or have anything to do with him, really.  haha  But he really wants to play with another kitty and I think this might help encourage him to be more social with humans if he sees that nothing bad happens when his friend is being petted or held.  Who knows, maybe the other kitty could help expand his vocabulary to consist or more than just "hiss", "growl", and "spit".  "Meow" and "Purr" would be nice once in a while.  haha

Will post more pics and video soon!  Thanks for checking up on Anakin!
