Ms Akira meets Tanaka ... almost

Ms Akira all wrapped up as usual in her cage...

Tanaka was very excited and was the first one to welcome her..although she would have none of that!

He waited in vain for her to unveil herself...

Finally!

She peeked out from under her pink blanket for a while, looked around, sniffed the air...and decided life looked better under a pink blanket...

Tanaka decided that good things will come...if he only waits for it...

It went without incident. I put Ms Akira in her night cage and wheeled her inside the bedroom. Then I gave her the pink blanket that just came from the wash so she would feel nice and comfy. I put it over her gently and allowed her to burrow inside the blanket and she became quite calm and settled down. Of course she did all her grooming inside her blanket and the movements attracted Tanaka like a magnet and he kept watch on her carefully.

I gave all of them treats immediately when I had settled Ms Akira so they would consider this move a good thing and they all did and left her alone, except Tanaka the supervisor who even now is keeping an eye on her.

After 30 minutes, Ms Akira was sufficently relaxed to lie down and take a nap. WHEW! I think we should be able to put her back in her room after lunch.

I had wanted to put her in the kitchen as we can close the kitchen sliding door and she could rest and relax on top of the fridge but grandma said that she may take fright as she was not used to the 2 painters and might decide to explore the kitchen cabinets and get into trouble so thi seemed like the best solution for now.
