Such a good idea Nita - the furkids will love it. Just make sure there is a hood thingy on top so the sweethearts can't go 'trawling' through with their paws!!
Our R/B Kisi used to do that with our goldfish tank - she never caught a fish and always got fed-up and presented me with a very wet paw for ME to dry!!!
Good luck with the move too - we'll keep paws and fingers crossed here for you - terrible time eh?!!
