To the Mouse House

Annie is packing up her favorite blanket to take along to her new digs.
"It just won't be home without it", she thinks.

Audrey has her chewed-up, personalized card-board box, 11 ping-pong balls and some fluff she found on the floor this morning packed and ready at the door. 

Sierra and Kane are sleeping and have left it all to fate.

Please keep them in your thoughts. These cats have a lot of adjustment ahead (as does Kane) starting with the 50 minute drive to the lot. *groan* 

I'm truly going to miss this ball of sweetness. Rae-Rae is such a good-natured cat. I have really loved having her in our home again. It will be hard to say "good-bye" although I know I will see her often.
I'll miss Joe, too. He's quite the character but my own cats do not care for him so it really is best that he will be staying with Rae-Rae.

I'll be waiting for the internet to get set up while putting things in place. I'm hoping to find a teeny-weeny pantry to hold more food in our little kitchen. I still have to do that.
And the good dishes and pottery will have to be put up high so Audrey doesn't get into it.
You just know she'll be busy checking out every nook and cranny.
I think I need more shelves.

I'll miss you all but I'll be back soon. Off we go...



Stay toasty,
Deb

  8. It'll be an adjustment. I'm sure Audrey will at least be glad to be rid of Joe and Rae Rae.

  20. Blessings upon this new chapter in all of your lives! You are finally going "Home to Grandma's!". I am sure she would be so pleased for this day to finally come, as would your mom, too.

    Prayers for the kitties and Kane. I know as long as they have you and Gary, they will feel safe and so will adjust well. Hugs to all.

    I love that you will have the choice of heating the gararge so you will be able to store extra supplies there, too. Wonderful!

    Enjoy this very special day! I am enjoyin it with you, too.

    Love,
    Lily

  23. How exciting! The beginning of a new chapter in your adult life which brings you home to the "old" familiar of your childhood years! Safe move and may your hearts fill with all the wonderful memories yet to be made. :)

  25. I do hope the adjustment goes well, Deb. I just love watching curious kitties checking out a new space. :-)

  26. A totally charming post. Good luck with all the moving and resettling. Glad the Kits will have all their special bits! We'll look forward to hearing of a happy move!

  27. Best of luck to you and your furries. Change is always bumpy for our four-pawed friends (and for us...) but I bet you all will soon be snug and happy in your mouse house!

  28. Move! Oh, I know about those, but this was our last...after 17 homes, I've done my time. Good luck, XOXO

  29. Oh how exciting and a bit scary. Especially for your furkids. I'll bet the cats are going to love all those beautiful birds you have been showing us. And they will have each other and you and your husband. How wonderful that you can live where you spent time at your Grandmother's as a young girl. I have fond memories of Grandma's, too.

  30. Big move for everyone! Best wishes for a smooth transition.

  31. Good luck! I am sure the cats and Kane will adjust well. I think they need their people more than their places. When my four (I had but four living with me then; sigh) moved with me to my new house, they were unnerved during the actual move, of course, but after that, they were all right. They explored, they found their new favourite spots and were content. They adjusted better and faster than I did!

  32. Just love those Beatrix Potter illustrations. Hope your move goes well, and you all adjust nicely. Your little kitties will have you with them; that's the most important thing!
