We have been referring to it as a she and calling her everything from "the cat" to "kitty" to Crybaby." She's very vocal, Gracie is over-the-moon with excitement to have her very own kitty, and she's eating and drinking well.
She has settled into her spot on the back stoop, has learned to scoot in the house when the back door opens, and loves to hang out with the pups on the deck.
