Look at that spot well, that is in Baton Rouge, Louisiana on the Mississippi River. If you care to join me there, I pormise I will feed you well. I will reserve the guest suite for you and you will have 2 beds, a TV and recliner, your own private bath, drawyers to hide in and lots of room to roam around in... There will be hands avaliable to pet you around the clock for as long as you want to stay..

If you are afraid to sleep alone, you can stay with me in my room and sleep with me! Please stop by and visit, love to have you.

:( Willy's european aunties were despondant when they saw how upset Chipper and Poppy were, also beautiful Katie in her little flying helmet! They don't want to cause more distress to Willy's worried meowmie. So they put their heads together and decided that the best course of action was to dispense with the yacht and hire a time machine! As a result of this strategy, Willy spent a number of days with each of his aunties all in the course of one night! Was that not brilliant!

Details of Willie's adventures will follow!

Willy has had a fabulous time and is now heading back to meowmie's continent. But, what side will he come in on? ;)

Willy WAS HERE !!! Willy WAS HERE !!!
What a funny furball he is :) And smart too! As soon as he heard that we would welcome him with a limo, he came straight here :)
This was waiting for him:

We made a tour in Brussels with him, and Maya and Inka were proud to show Willy the "Atomium"

After his "blits-visit", he got back on the plane, heading for...:confused: OOPS, I forgot to ask him.... :eek:

Oh how fabulous!! I do hope that Willy will land at the port in Baton Rouge and travel with Laura! This will allow him to visit with many Pt'ers who live within traveling distance of the Mississippi!!

I will happily travel to St Louis to pick him up - Laura, will your boat travel this far north?? Oh I hope so!!

But, who knows where he will embark when he reaches North America:rolleyes:

Whoever has Willy now, please check in! Lorraine, I am sure he will arrive safely in Canada after his American travels.

Rarely do we make it up to St. Louis but I will call you with direction on where you can meet us.

I called ahead and they are getting his room ready on there, the boat store is sending out food and treats, tons of toys. My company is even making sure we have a full loaded barge with all the sand he wants for a litter box. I had to do some calling around to find him a live jacket but I did end up finding him one... NO ONE is allowed on without one! The crew boat is standing by to bring him out to us and those guys are excited to ferry such an important guest on the river.

We can not wait to welcome him when he gets there!!!

I just got email from the boat... Willy was there this morning and they took this picture and sent. He said he couldn't stay as he has many places to go and many people to see.. They sent me this as proof that he was already there!

Willy had the loveliest time here in the UK. First he visited with Auntie Chris in Wales! They visited a lovely parish church.

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...d/f396a918.jpg

Willy was very interested to see this church for two reasons. Firstly he heard the building dates from the 15th and 16th century. Willy was amazed! His little jaw dropped at the thought that anything could be that old. Also he heard the church has links to Yale University, where he hopes to go one day.

Parish Church of St Giles

After an exhausting day seeing the sights, he snuggled down for a nap, with Ebby keeping an eye out for kitnappers!

After Bob and Ebby had delivered Willy to me safely, we decided on a visit to the distilley down the road. Willy had never seen whisky being produced before.

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...0/f396ac27.jpg

Meowmie has not to worry though, he didn’t touch a drop. He stocked up on presents, some whisky, shortbread, haggis and salmon for his friends and family then flew off into the sunset over Loch Lomond.

Bye bye Willy! Miss you precious.

Willy is already on the Riverboat?:eek: Wow! That means he must be visiting some southern states first?? Please let us know where he is - whoever is borrowing him right now. I know he will get some scrumptious dinners in between visits (seeing that he is well loved by the ship's cook!:D ;) )

Don't worry Lorraine - he will be home to you soon. I hope all is forgiven of kidnapper SAS and all:)

This sounds like quite an adventure for our little Willy. Oh the stories he'll have for Meowmie some one of these days. I heard on the news this morning that Willy had an audience with the Queen when he passed through London! On the news they also said Willy was recruited to be a palace guard, because of all that hair he won't need one of those big helmets.....

This picture is just too darn adorable and makes me miss my widdle guy even more.
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...8/f396ab51.jpg

Well, well, well, it is obvious my widdle Wee Willy Winky is in good hands and having himself a grand old time. Does he care that his meowmie has been at home worried sick about him, not knowing how he is or where he is, NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Has he even tried to escape to get back home. Not that I can tell.
All I can say is that he better get that cute widdle butt of his back home and pronto as he has a vets appointment on saturday for his booster shot. But please, don't anyone tell him that okay.

I hope you all enjoyed my widdle Willy's visits and yes, I have forgiven the kitnappers.

I enjoyed seeing all the beautiful places he has been and I'm sure he will have plenty of tales to tell me.

When's he coming to CA??? I can't wait to shower him in kisses!!!!

And...my furkids want to play with him too! :)

Is he comming through OHIO?

If he comes through TN he may not make it back to Canada! I think he would make the perfect widdle brother for Rocky and Rumor. :p

YES! Willy has been here! Last night he and Lizzie watched Misha have her bath...
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...02005/tub2.jpg
Then he spent the morning with us, had a big meal and took a long nap in my lap with Robbie, Lizzie and Dylan. Dennis got this picture of them!!
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...2005/willy.jpg
We took him to a dock on the Ohio river and they were to transpost him back to the port and onto the boat with Laura for the night. I am not sure where he will go next or where he was the past few days though I think he was with Laura. (I think she is getting far too much time with him!!)

What a sweet widdle fella he is!! :D :D I gave him loads and loads of kisses and he played so happily with the kids here!!

I have no idea whether sensing that there may be a vet appointment is in the planning for him will make Willy go home.

I seriously doubt it.

Even if you don't tell the kitties they know as we all have experienced:D

Come on folks. Fess up. Who has that boy? I heard he was heading toward southern CA soon. And Lorraine, better cancel that Vet appointment because I do believe Willy will be headed for northern CA and Canada after southern CA.

I miss him so.

I am sooo mad at A&P. They have not kept me abreast of the goings-ons. I swear they are just out and traveling for the fun of it! They claim that no sooner do they realize where he was headed next, they get there to find he just left! Is the kitnapping network that good? Do we need to call in the FBI (Feline Bureau of Investigation)?

Willy seems to be having a great time visiting all these wonderful PT homes!

I don't know Kim, I am a little disappointed in the A & P Investigators. I thought for sure I would have my Willy back in time for his vet appointment, but it looks like that ain't gonna happen any time soon. Those kitnappers were always one step ahead of them. I appreciate the effort that they have made, I really do, but I think that A & P should sign up for more training.

Debbie, what sweet pictures of my Willy with your kitties and watching baby Misha take a bath. I'm glad you enjoyed his visit.

I am glad that all of you are enjoying his visits, but really folks, come on, don't you think it's time to send him home. PLEASE!!!!

All I ask is that you avoid a certain house in East TN and in Vermont as I know if they get a hold of him, I will never see him again.:eek:

Oh sweet, sweet Willy! How soon will you be coming to Trenton? Your adoring public demands to know. Festivities and reception arrangements are in place. Groucho and his best bud Murphy, a dog, are waxing up the catmobile on loan from the local Jaguar dealer complete with air conditioning, cd stereo, and plenty of catnip toys and fuzzy things to play with and keep. They plan to take you around to many of the spots of historical interest in the Trenton area. You also will be getting the ceremonial key to our no-kill kitty shelter. Why, the mayor is considering a city wide holiday. Arrangements are currently being made for you to throw out the first pitch at a Trenton Thunder baseball game.The city of Trenton will be yours during your extended stay here. Please, please get here soon!!!!!

Gee, the heck with Willy, can I come instead?????????
That sounds like so much fun.:D

If Willy,can make it,to The Found cat Hotel,we promise,that He can have the Fish Bed,and his choice,of the 6 feeding staions,and LOTS,O Cats,to play with.DEAL?

Hey rg girlca! Tell you what. Just as soon as I get word that Willy will be here in Trenton, I'll pm you with all the details... date and time of his arrival. If you jump an AMTRACK, it will bring you right to downtown Trenton. Once he arrives, Groucho and Murphy will spirit him straight into the Catmobile/ Jaguar and you WILL be reunited with your little sweetie boy. Then we'll all join the reception and festivities with Willy safely and securely in your custody. Groucho has been sworn to secrecy and he's on the phone with Murph right now telling him Willy's arrival MUST be top secret so your reunion can be successfully pulled off. In addition, plain clothes state police will be mingling with the throngs of Willy fans just in case someone tries anything (SAS or Lorraine for example). Just let me know if your pm is secure so we can get all this resolved. We're not going to tell Willy that you're going to be here, element of surprise here.....

Ebby was hoping for another visit ...

..... but now


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...ous/willy3.jpg

Ebby, I look just as sad as you as Willy has left Europe and won't come back.

I wonder where he is? California? Vermont?

He better goes to someone with a camera or we will never see him again;)

I just intercepted a message to Little Orphan Annie, and Willy is coming to NEBRASKA to see her and Shadow, and Angel, and Oreo and Sandi! I'll have to get my camera ready to snap some pictures for proof! Little Orphan Annie can hardly wait!

Annie is sitting in the window, watching diligently for Willy:http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...9/f38d3c45.jpg

She asks anyone who passes by "Where, oh where in the world is my wild-haired Wee Willy Winky?"http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...0/f38d3c71.jpg

HERE he is!:) He's HERE! He's REALLY HERE!:eek: :) :p
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...d/f38d2fcb.jpg
He's SOOOOoooo tired from all his travels, he's taking a little catnap before the real fun begins! Annie is sticking close by, ready to play and play and play!

Oh precious Ebby darling, I know just how you feel! It was so good to have Willy here. *sniff*

I now sympathise so much more with Auntie Barbara. :(

I want to know when he's coming to California. Please stop my place Willy. I promise to take good care of you and then let you continue your PT visits.:)

Okay, just wanted to let you all know, that I had to cancel Willy's vet appointment today, as some of you know, he is STILL NOT back home yet.

Gary, if you can somehow get Willy to your place, it would be so much easier to transport him back home.

Momcat, my PM's are very secured, so I don't see a problem there.
Does this mean that I am a day closer to having my Willy back.
Oh, I can't wait to hold my sweet baby in my arms again.

OMG!!!! Poor sweet Ebby. Now you know how I have been feeling since Willy has been gone. :( It's hard, isn't it sweetie. At least you had some time with him. Please take comfort in that.

Deb!!!! Willy is in Nebraska NOW!!!! Gee, it looks like it is going to take a little longer to get that galavanting wild hair widdle guy back here.
How sweet is that. :D Little Annie won't leave his side. Too cute.

Well people, I really don't know what to say. My Willy is in your hands now. But I did receive an anonymous e-mail saying that my Willy is feeling somewhat distraught being away from his meowmie and there were pictures to prove it.

See in next post.

I think these pictures speak for themselves. :( :( :(

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...e/f38cde63.jpg

Need I say more. :(

Lorraine, I think Willy will have to be out of town a few more days. I know his trip/kitnapping hasn't made you happy, but think of US! We have all gotten to hold the little guy and give him kisses and stroke his fuzzy little body. Thanks for sharing!

I suspect he will be back by the 4th of July.

Sorry for all the upset!

SAS and her gang

Lorraine, those pictures of a sad, homesick Willy must have been taken before he got to my house, because he and Shadow and Annie are just having a ball right now! Here's some PROOF!

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...2/f38d0e53.jpg

Wow! Willy sure does get around! I sure wish he could have joined us on our trip. I'm sure he would have provided some badly needed comic relief along the way. ;)

Hmmmm.....wonder where he's going to show up next?

Great pictures everybody! :D

I cannot imagine Willie looking that sad with little Annie close to him;)

Whom will he visit next- so much suspense in this story:)

You are right SAS. I should have been thinking more about my PT friends. I am sorry for being so selfish in trying to keep Willy all to myself. I'm glad you are all enjoying my widdle guy and I do enjoy seeing his pictures with his PT kitty friends and all the places that he has been so far. Seeing him with his sweetheart Annie just warms my heart.

It will be very hard for me, but I guess I can wait a little longer until you are all over your Willy fix.

BUT!!!!!!!!! Please promise me that you will have him back by the 4th of July. I want him here to help celebrate Poppy's Birthday on the 5th. He will be turning 1 year old and I need Willy to be in the pictures.

Thank you. :D

Oh my gosh!!!!! Wee Willy landed in So Cal! ....

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...3/f38bf3d4.jpg

He sure looks happy to me!

Wow! So Cal beach life! No wonder we all couldn't keep him. However I am very glad that auntie Edwina takes care of him. Alone at the sea shore would be too dangerous for such a widdle wee guy:)

Sara,

I am so glad Willy made it to southern CA. I bet he will have a great time with the EEs etal. Will he visit others in CA?

(I wish I had learned the cut and paste techniques necessary to create such wonderfully cute photos. I wish I could cut and paste MYSELF some where else on some days! But that is for another thread).

Sara, please take care of Willy and make sure the EEs don't roll over on the widdle tyke. No offense, but I think your two cats out weigh the Willy guy by some pounds!

I promised Lorranie that Willy would be returned safe and sound for the 4th of July, so don't keep him TOO long of a time! OK?

No pressure, but more photos would be fun. (cut and paste pro, that you are!)

SAS

You guys are cracking me up! I've been reading through this thread and it seems that Willy may have experienced some sort of time travel because if I'm not mistaken, he was in Europe and on the Mississippi River at about the same time!

Well, if anyone could do it, Willy could. :D

I'm thinking that Willy needs some more stamps in his passport. Any chance he's leaving Canada and the US again?
