Getting back to PT is wonderful and I am so happy to hear from so many again - am in the process of catching up.

Renee - did not know the Tribe has grown. Funny how that happens I don't know about you, but SIX is really pushing my limits. Constant vacuuming, dusting, feeding and scooping

Yes, Tyler, Paul and Missy are now back in Japan - she called me yesterday when the phone was reconnected there and all is well Boomer will remain here with us until the kids return to the states next November - then Boomer will go to live with them wherever that might be. No more kitties for them - hubby Paul is allergic so Boomer can be "only kitty" again. They will probably get a dog.

Lut - yes the arrival of Paul was emotional, but of course Tyler took right to him happily We brought Tyler to the airport when Missy and Tyler flew in from Baltimore. She flew there to greet Paul's arriving plane

Renate YES I remember the flight tracking time and was so glad to have PT to share this with!

Carla - oh my I DO remember often that experience with the owner of the retiring scottish fold we hoped to adopt. It was so humiliating and disappointing. That is sweet of you to join me in that - I still think of it from time to time. I wonder about that sweet cat but feel like she ended up happy in someone's home - maybe closer to where the original breeder was. I do not understand that concept of breeding cats for looks, etc. I am just a "regular" cat meowmie but YES, my kitties are spoiled and happy They are my babies.

Hopefully, Missy will be back to posting soon. She has some really good pictures of her camera!
