I promised myself that I would let Melissa (Doolittleky) start this thread, but I'm so very, very excited that I had to start one myself.

In a few hours Melissa will head out to Ohio to pick up Beans for me from Sierra's Haven for New and Used Pets. I adopted him several weeks ago, but attempts to use the truckers network to get him to me have so far failed, and using Kitty Hawk Cargo would have meant that someone had to take him to Indianna first. Melissa has been telling me for weeks that she would like to foster him until he can come to me and so, unable to bear the thought of him continuing to be behind bars at the haven any longer, I said "yes, please".

Some of you may remember that Beans was one of the special needs cats that Melissa posted last month. He was born without elbow joints and hobbles around on his back legs.

I'm sure that Melissa will post lots of photos of him as soon as she can - I certainly hope so because it shows that he is one step closer to being home with me. I am almost in tears here at work, again, because he is getting closer to being with me and I really long to have him with me, I have from the moment I first saw his photo on PetFinder.

Anyone flying soon from Kentucky to Seattle?!
