Here's our boy! Ivan has been venturing out from behind the couch (he gave up on the drawers under the sink because we could remove the drawers and get to him) more and more readily. When I come home at night and peek under the couch (he's usually there) he actually slinks out from behind the couch and comes around the end table (the long way) about halfway to me, waiting for me to call and coax him over. Then he sniffs my hand, lets me pet him, and soon starts rubbing against my hand for more petting, rolling over so I can rub his belly and play with him, and so on. He's a delight!
Ivan likes my sneakers, especially to scratch, so I moved them into the bedroom closet (amazing!) and put the scratching post in their place.
He has a bit of an attitude sometimes, as you can see from his expression here! We're looking forward to learning more about him as he settles in...
5/25 added note: Ivan just discovered my crafts table and shelves. Knocked off two stamp pads and a box of rubber stamps. I knew it was inevitable. Not a problem, nothing's breakable and the photos and papers are safely stowed so he can't wrinkle or play with them.... I'm pretty sure...
