It took our cats a little bit to warm up to ours, but they love it now.
Guy admitted fault (and was a really nice guy, too. Kind of young, first accident, very sorry), and given where it occurred and the damage to both cars it's pretty clear what happened regardless. I don't see any issues, except maybe my insurance rates going up a bit. I've mostly been joking that Solo was so bad somebody hit us. Solo was not bad, btw.
Thanks, though!
