Pets are cool

So the cats are now settled at the Durango house with minimal trauma for them. Amy is a different story. She had an affinity for them previously, but they were always at the Henderson house so she could "visit." Now that they are at Durango, there are all these different noises. Plus, I really think this house is like Disneyland for them. There are new places to hide. The office is a veritable obstacle course where they can go exploring. We try to keep it closed up when we aren't here because first, we don't want them getting hurt and second, we don't want anything broken or knocked over.

One area that is completely off limits for them is the master bedroom closet. We tried keeping the master bath off limits, but they would set up camp outside there just waiting for their opportunity. Friday night, Midge just stared at the door and hissed for no apparent reason. Very funny.

The cats are generally behaving themselves and getting used to their new surroundings. I'm feeling more and more at home at the Durango house...

It is like using reverse psychology on them.. If the bathroom door was open, they probably wouldn't care less about going in. But you know what they say about curiosity and cats.

I am glad you are getting comfortable at the durango house, because it is VERY happy to have you there!

Teri - Yeah. If the bathroom door was open, they'd go in once or twice a day, but just walk around and that's it.

Amy - I'm glad the Durango house is happy to have me here. We just have to get it somewhat more cat-proof.

Leni - Agreed. The cats will just be getting comfortable and we'll move them again. At least the layout of this house is similar to the Henderson house so they weren't too freaked.
