Another very busy day for us. We left in the morning and took care of phones and internet, shopped for some warm clothes, visited the hospital to get our full records and some last-minute questions for our doctor (He's very good), got cat supplies and returned home. Once there, we packed up the cat supplies and toys and loaded them into the car.
The cats - Prima and Zorro - were already freaked out by the suitcases being filled. When I pulled out the cat carriers and started packing up their food bowls and toys they knew something was up. Prima retreated to the bedroom, and Zorro hid. I gathered every thing I had packed and left to load the car. As soon as I was out of the door, Zorro re-appeared. When I returned a few minutes later, he kind of glared at me like he was saying "You shouldn't scare me like that!" and then sat comfortably by the porch screen.
So I grabbed him and stuffed him into one of the carriers.
I grabbed and stuffed Prima also, and we brought them to their new home: Khun Mae's house. The cats had previously charmed my mother-in-law and sister-in-law, so they agreed to take them. Once here, both cats immediately dashed under the bed in the room we freed them (Pui's old bedroom). It wasn't long before Prima was exploring the house and totally charming everyone all over again. But Zorro is still under the bed, glaring balefully at an entire world that is so unjust as to allow such indignity.
It feels good that we have found them a good home where they will be given the care and attention they deserve. We are staying at Khun Mae's tonight, partly to re-assure the cats and partly to re-assure ourselves.
