LOL, it's charming how quickly the Master of the manor went from "if you're ever feeling lonely, you can stay here from the night" to "...Mel should be coming to bed with me soon" with an expectant hope.
Also, you have to wonder about how bad of a maid a kemonomimi/nekomimi would be. Not because of their abilities, but do you really think that they can get their job done with the constant headpats and tail stroking?
"Master, I can't do my chores if you don't let go of my tail..."
"Meh. Let Colette do it."
