Who will be Sleeping in the Basement?

For a while we kept one kitty locked away in the basement over night, mostly Idi. There is lots of room down there and much to explore so we thought we did her a favour.
But she didn't really like it very much. She was crying and scratching for hours.
So we decided to set up cat-shop in the master bedroom and ensuite. Less room but nice and comfy.
The first couple of nights there was still a bit crying - this time outside the door, but now they both got used to the new arrangement splendidly. We took turns to see how both cats would adjust and I can say that both are quite content. You don't find one sitting right at the door anymore like we used to. There is no meowing and scratching and they just go about their daily business as usual, only by themselves. Sometimes we have to search form them now, because they've found new and unusual hiding spots.
Things are looking good!

(We don't let them near each other, though. The grudge still seems to be unresolved. I am just not in the mood for another Lara Croft experience, thank you very much.)

Wow! You are getting there. Great to hear. Management seems to be the key.

I can go on for years like that. I don't mind keeping them separate.
We'll try reuniting them at one point, though.
