He is settling well.
the first day and a half he spend pretty much in hiding, then we prevented his access to upstairs rooms where he adopted the landing, luckily we have a large landing with a side window he like sitting on the windowsill.
we have noticed a few strange things like yesterday i took him some dry food upstairs to encourage him to eat and the last few bits he dragged out of the bowl with his paw as he couldn't lick them out.
Also he seems to enjoy pleasing us, it can be difficult to get him purring. but as soon as you stroke him on the windowsill he will jump down for some fuss and he's rubbing all over me and enjoying tummy rubs.
one thing is for sure he was most definately in a home as a kitten as he is well socialised and very affectionate, he don't apply his claws either.
we're trying to get a feeding routine in place this morning i managed to get him from under the bed easily (he likes to sleep beneath us) and he had a half a pouch of wet for breakfast. he has access to dry all day, theres a small amount of dry upstairs the rest in his bowl downstairs as he seems to freak out downstairs when it's light.
Desley is right although he looks really well fed when you rub his tum you can feel ribs.
another thing i find strange is his posture - Jet walked head high and tail up. Garfield walks hunched up and tail down i don't know if this a gender difference or due to the fact he's still a little wary of us?
i do keep picking him up and trying to settle him downstairs (ie once or twice a day)but he freaks and runs back upstairs, i'm sure he'll come round. sooner rather than later we hope as i don't find it particularly comfortable sat on the floor.
