Seven and Panda:
Well, we made it to Campbellsville, KY last Friday. It was a bit of an adventure, at least for us.
It started out Thursday night with mom packing up our house and then moving the walls inside. We really don't like it when the walls move. Then, she moved our house out of our spot in the RV resort up to the top of the hill. We had to ride inside our house while it was moving up the hill and we didn't like that AT ALL. Then we said goodbye to our dad, and that was kinda rough on everybody. Then the walls moved AGAIN and we slept in the parking lot. Mom said it was so we could pull right out the next morning?? We don't know what that was all about, but the next morning we got up really early and our mom put us in the cat carrier. We knew something was up when we saw that out! Then she put us in the back seat of the big red thing - we think it's called a truck - we had our food and water and litter box and fluffy cat bed and a blanket back there. Panda rode in the litterbox the whole way - thank goodness it was clean - and I, Seven, slept on the floorboard the whole time. The truck thing was pretty loud especially when we went up and down the hills and we could hear the house clanging around where it connected to the truck. Mom said it was an "uneventful" trip and a really easy drive for her though, so that is good.
Then we got to our new campground in Campbellsville, KY and mom left us in the truck while she parked the house and got everything set up. She turned the air conditioning on for us right away and we finally got to get out of the truck and back in our house. We felt a LOT better then.
Mom had a hard time with the TV thing. The thingy on the roof that gets our channels wasn't picking up all her channels and the cable/antenna switch wasn't working and she said a lot of bad words. I guess that means she was mad. Anyway...our mom is pretty smart and she finally got all that fixed and we are all settled in to the new place.
We have a big yard that we can look out at right out the window and we can see more people and stuff going on here so we kind of like it. Mom said we are only staying here for a few months and then we will do that moving thing all over again. Hopefully we will get used to riding in the truck and not be so scared and we can sit up on the seat and look out the windows. We bet there is a lot of stuff to see on the road!
Mom is working at Amazon.com here and also working her normal job. We don't mind the normal job because she does that here at home and we get to see her all day. But now she leaves around 5:00 and won't be getting home until 4:30 in the morning so we won't get to sleep with her as much. And we have to be really quiet on Saturdays so she can sleep - at least that's what she said. I, Seven, am not very good at being quiet though. :(
We think that is it for now. We have to run...the neighbors are leaving today and we want to watch them unplug their house.
Welcome to our Blog
This is Panda. I am a 12 yr old long-haired black and white cat. My Mom (Sherri) saved me from the Humane Society in Scottsdale, Arizona when I was 8 weeks old. She's the best mom ever. I am completely spoiled rotten but I kinda like it. I make sure that I spend a lot of time curled on Mom's feet or sleeping in her lap so she knows that I appreciate being spoiled. And I think it's so nice of her to let me have a pillow on the bed all to myself! But just so Mom feels special too I always go to sleep first curled up as close to her face as I can get. That way she won't forget me! And when she falls asleep I kinda sneak on over to my own pillow. But ssshhhh...don't tell her.
This is Seven. I am a 3 yr old long haired tabby-colored cat. A lot of people ask my Mom if I'm a Mancoon. She says she doesn't know and I'm not tellin'. All I know is I'm pretty special. I was rescued from the Humane Society in Huntersville, North Carolina when I was 7 weeks old. Panda told me that he had a brother before me named Boobookitty. Mom had Boobookitty for 19 years (wow!) and when he passed away May 7th of 2009 she was really, really sad. But Mom decided that Boobookitty's passing would save a life and so she came and got me. I think I would have liked Boobookitty - Panda says he was pretty hot stuff. My name is Seven because of the day he went to cat heaven and that makes me feel even more special. Not that I needed any help there - I am king of the world. Just ask me, I'll tell you.
So this page is all about us going on the road. We decided that we should tell the story since we all know that felines are far superior to humans. So, read our story and come along for the ride!
