Hi everyone.
Well, good news!! The move was very succussful and we are almost settled now - stil unpacking but almost done.
The babies were not too happy to be boarded and I was not happy to do it. Even though the move went very smoothly, I'm glad I put them up at the pet hotel for the day of the move. They would have been twice as stressed if they had been around when all the ruckus was going on....so would I :)
AND, I'm proud to say they have adjusted fairly well. Surprisingly, it was Oreo, not Wilber who had a strange reaction the first night. He was panting for about 5 seconds every 30 minutes or so. Not sure what that means in a cat, although I seem to have it in my mind that it's a smell thing, but the behavior had ceased the next morning.
And while both are being very sensitive and tend to hide when there is any change in sounds, they seem to be adjusted for the most part. More than anything I think they are just curious about the place, and a little hesitant to get tooooo comfy in their new surroundings yet.
I'm very proud of my brave guys!!!! I've only taken a couple of pictures cause I wanted them to adjust before meowmie runs around flashing a camera in their face :) Plus I'm not sure where the tape thingie is that loads the pictures into the computer.
Thanks for your support guys.
Now to catch up on all the pictures, posts and stories I've missed!!
