I love reading Vivi's story. I'm so glad you got her, and she has enriched your lives so much. It's amazing how different your three cats look, despite having a similar overall description, and it's lovely to hear about their different personalities and how they interact with one another. Vivi sounds like a dream.
The no-eating thing is HORRIBLE. It sounds like a very stressful few weeks! When we got Selkie, she also decided not to eat, to the point where she was weak and I had to feed her warmed wet food on my fingertips. Pretty much the same trick worked for her as for Vivi: lots of little meals, attention while she eats. I'm glad everyone is fine now. <3
The pictures of Vivi inside the wooden wall square, so it looks like she's in a picture frame, are so adorable. <3
Is spaying younger kittens a common practice in the US? To be clear, no judgement from me, it's just a surprise -- we spayed our girls at 8 months old, and our vet still thought that might be too young.
