Nenet's sleepover

As mentioned, I took Nenet back to the hotel for a sleepover.  She's a ridiculously cute two year female cat.  Dave was already at the hotel when I got there - he'd been mountain biking in Hurricane that day.  Like most animals, Nenet took to him immediately.  We each sat on a bed and she run back and forth between us to be pet.  After about 45 minutes, she suddenly noticed all of the other "people" noises in the hotel and became frightened.  Every time a door closed or people outside talked, she'd give a little growl and hid under the bed!  It took quite awhile to coax her out of there and she was still jumpy so we built a fort out of bedcovers and she hid under there for hours.  At least we could pet her and snuggle under the fort!  We turned out the lights at about 11pm and somewhere around midnight, Nenet apparently decided she was now comfortable with her sleepover and wanted to play.  For the rest of the night, she wandered around the room randomly meowing, climbing into/onto everything (!) and jumping on us every now and then.  Needless to say, neither Dave nor I got any sleep.  Dave even sat in the bathroom with her for about an hour while she sniffed and played - she was strangely fascinated by the bathroom.  Even without sleep, it was a great experience and Nenet was a wonderful guest.  We took her back to Jill's Diner at Best Friends on Sunday morning and she ran right into her outside area to see her friends.  Although I really wanted to,we decided not to adopt because we're not sure our Freddy is ready for another kitty companion.  He never got along well with Kitty and he finally seems to be coming out of his shell now that he has the house to himself.  Anyway, it was sad to see Nenet stay in Utah but hopefully she'll get adopted soon.
Here are few pictures of Nenet.  It was really hard to take her picture because everytime I pointed the camera at her, she ran straight for me!

Nenet - what a cutie pie!
