Well, that and I almost always end up annoyed and frustrated when I travel. But there are places I would love to visit, I just don't want to have to deal with any people on the way. I would love to travel with the cats but they can't stand being in the car at all. Plus with 6 - well, can you imagine the howling! So for me the best vacation is staying home and visiting other places via the internet - less stress and more cats that way!Amy & the house of catshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345856423713438044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3367997384893777621.post-89019345709944396682010-07-09T20:36:28.894+01:002010-07-09T20:36:28.894+01:00I have this adorable pink and brown pet carrier. ...I have this adorable pink and brown pet carrier. I got it when Macy was little. On a visit to the vet, I decided to put Stripes in it. He got out in the car. The vet said that if a cat can get its head through a space its body can go through it too...I think the second choice is best for Charlie. We took Macy and Ginger (daughter's cat) to the cabin with us. Ginger rides in a big pet carrier for most of the trip. When she needs to get out she lets us know and we let her out for a bit.Sharon K.

Because of the kids (kitties) I have settled on the dream of owning a big RV and traveling the USA. I work "from home" by internet, so theoretically I could work anywhere.. alas, my husband hates the idea.<br />So I'm with you, travelling in my dreams.<br />Have a great weekend you two!Piphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00720448450116459367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3367997384893777621.post-18606400593391059602010-07-09T17:34:20.431+01:002010-07-09T17:34:20.431+01:00One reason (well five actually) I haven't done...One reason (well five actually) I haven't done much traveling is because of the furbabies. So, I definitely understand how you feel Jenn! It's just too hard to leave them, and Abby is so fussy about how she is fed. She stops eating her wet food when I am gone. (I had to take two short trips since I've had her in 5 yrs)<br /><br />So I prefer to stay home and dream like you.<br /><br />Abby says "hi Charlie"!ANGEL ABBYGRACEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08777233381092226583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3367997384893777621.post-77791091605639868422010-07-09T17:06:08.436+01:002010-07-09T17:06:08.436+01:00We know Charlie is very relieved that you will be ...We know Charlie is very relieved that you will be staying home with him!!!!
