We left him in the living room! God save us all! :)

I need positive vibes from this wonderful community! 

What possible mischief could such a handsome kitty like Bruce possibly get into?   

He sure is pretty!

Good news! Bruce behaved impecably! Nothing damaged, only his toys all through the house, which is great, because it means he played during the day (he normally wouldn't before, or only in our bed).

Off course this was the first day. He will build up his confidence now, and probably get in some mischief on the future, but I'm happy we can leave him with the whole appartment to himself.

He also seemed less needy when I got home from work. 

I am one lucky cat mommy!

thats great! I remember how nervous I was when I left the cats alone for the first time, I was so anxious to get home to make sure all was well!

Glad your kitty behaved. For now.
