I like the word play on that condo. Makes it sound like an important official or something!

Got cats and rabbits on the plane this morning. Had a minor panic attack. shed so some tears. They should be just fine. I'm just worried about Kai. His eyes were all red and stressed poor baby. I feel kind of bad for putting him in that situation. Shya had her curious/alert ears on but took it all in stride. My old cat is a pretty seasoned traveler. The kitten was hiding under the blanket with pinned ears and HUGE eyes!
11 hour flight. Yuck. Parents will call when they get them home and settled. So looking forward to that phone call. Until then it's a stress headache all day for me :cry1:Hope all goes well. I'm so looooonley without them!
 
Just got a very detailed e-mail from my mom. Everyone is doing just fine. Eating, drinking, and pooping normal. Kai's getting kind of tudey with my mom which I find hilarious. Dumped his food and water bowl, and banged it around, as soon as she set it down. Shya pooping all over her new dog crate and mom is impressed that much stuff can come out of a three pound rabbit. Loving Rome and have to say it's my new favorite city. Haven't received an e-mail yet from the dog sitter so I assume Sam hasn't decided to run away yet. The week is still young.
 
They have the most amazing indoor/underground markets here in Rome. Everything from crazy looking fish, shoes, and the freshest veggies and fruit. I could afford to feed both rabbits for a tenth of the cost I'm paying now. Shya would love trying everything.

So my mom has two little dogs, a cat, and a three year that she watches. Then you add my two cats and two rabbits and it's a little crowded in their tiny apartment. Rabbits live in dog crates and get let out on the porch for a couple of hours of activity. The three year old likes to feed Kai through the bars of the cage. It was all good and fun until Kai got out. Lilly running like hell to get away from big rabbit. Dogs running like hell to get away from rabbit. Moms cat running from big rabbit startling my two cats into big threeway fight. Mom wondering what the hell is going on. Kai high tailing it back to his crate because there's way to much going on. Mom starts drinking at ten o'clock in the morning.

PS: Shya's the good one? Who writes that?
 
Yikes! Apparently Kai has entered "the stage" and he is not doing it gracefully. Mom can't let the rabbits out together because all Kai wants to do his hump Shya. Of course he's only 2 1/2 times her size and has 7-8 pounds on her. She also said while he uses his litter box he pees and poops everywhere and a lot of it. LOL! Dur he's a giant rabbit. He's also taken nibbles out of my mom. She tried letting them out together on the second night and she had to fend off Kai while grabbing Shya. Mom said Shya had this relieved look on her face. They get fresh air everyday on my moms fenced in porch. They really like it. Kai goes out in the morning and sun bathes and Shya out in the evening, stretched out catching the breeze. Kai could also just be acting up due to the situation change. He lets my mom pet him and what not but the tude is definitely rearing it's ugly head. It's such a crazy world. Shya is opening the doors to the rabbit world for my mom and Kai is quickly slamming them!
 
yeah right. Like I was going to walk away from this little gem.

Random photo. This kitty was just chilling, waiting for his flight in a busy Rome airport. I was pretty sure I wasn't going to get him through security. Friendly guy.

Need your votes! There's a photo contest and I'm debating which photo to submit. Here's what they're looking for.

"Online photo submissions will be judged on the basis of creativity, uniqueness, quality, and effectiveness in conveying the essence of loyalty and companionship of pets belonging to military members." There's also a 50 word essay describing your pet to be included. I've narrowed it down to the following photos. In no particular order.

I like number 1 and 5 because you get to see the kitties interacting with you (or whomever that is in number 1 haha). Don't get me wrong I love the bunny pictures but to me 1 and 5 better convey the "essence of loyalty and companionship of pets belonging to military members."

Aaaaaw snuggley Kai and Shya :heartbeat:
 
I've gotten a lot of feedback for picture number five. This is the 50 word essay I came up with. It's 49 words (not a lot to work with!)

Booger is very adaptable, very well-traveled, and has taken everything that the military has thrown at us. He lies on my head and purrs which enables me to fall and stay asleep. This was especially helpful after my deployments when my thoughts were troubled and sleeping was very difficult.


 
Got up and left with the movers. Now living in an empty apartment with two dogs and a cat.

Nothing left to do but clean and clear. Then it's an 11 hour flight on the 10th. I hate flying with a passion. Just getting to the airport is going to be a challenge and all so, so early in the morning.
