Immediately I attempted to amend this faux pas by slow blinking...

And Harvey (his name is Harvey) slow blinked back!

What a brave sweetheart!

oh see

i thought you were going to say

'i accidentally made eye contact and now we have another cat suddenly'

omg!!

Harvey is so sweet but Nikko does not have cat manners just yet or that might have been the way that went

Nikko keeps trying to lick Eliza. He... he is not deterred by all the hissing and the being whapped.

He has been doing OK with "leave it" but then he forgets...

We've blocked off half the house so Eliza can leave

Which is... sort of working OK but now is not the time for another cat.
