Whoa!
I can't believe it's been so long since I've written! Moving will do that to you apparently.
The initial moving process was tough on our dog. He stuck to me like glue. The boxes everywhere worried him, causing him to cry and whimper frequently. Oh the stress!
The cat, on the other hand, loved the packing process. He loved jumping in and out of every box - full or empty. Hide-n-seek was his game of choice. Pouncing on the dog if he got within a few feet probably didn't help ease the poor Yorkie's nerves. It was great fun for our feline though!
The day we moved the animals, it all flip-flopped. Nugent was thrilled with a new adventure and the new "sniffs" (as my youngest calls them). Mittens about had a heart attack on the drive over, panting and huffing. Whew! Never thought we'd make the few short miles there.
The cat hid under the couch for the first few days, coming out at night when no one was around. Once he figured out where his food and litter box were, he seemed to calm down.
Now, as we unpack, Mittens and Nugent have flipped places again. Mittens is back to jumping in the boxes as soon as I open them!
Get an animal - they'll make your life more interesting!

I just happened to be browsing some of my website favorites and decided to check out whether you've added a new entry. Woo hoo! Good timing! Glad the pets are finally adjusting to their new home.
