Misson: Feline Rescue

Mission: Feline Rescue

We finally decided that it was ridiculous to keep the cats in the boarding kennel/prison. Or possibly to be more accurate, we were missing them a lot. We drove up to Corolla to do our Segway tour and on the way back, stopped to pick up the cats. According to the "kennel technician", Godiva finally became a bit more friendly and allowed them to touch her when they cleaned her cage and fed her.

When they brought her out in her cage, she saw me and started meowing immediately. We paid the exorbitant fee and got into the car to go back to the house. It was 20 miles from the rental house and since we had snuck the litter box into the house earlier, we left them in the cages just in case.

Back at the house, we threw things over the cages so it wouldn't look like we had cages. My hubby said that it just looked like overnight bags but they do have air holes in them so we didn’t want to take a change. According to the lease I signed, we are not supposed to have the cats in the rental house but dogs are fine. My personal feeling is that a dog does more damage than a cat but not the rental company feeling. Since they had lied to me about allowing cats, I truly didn’t feel bad about having them in the house for a couple of days. In retrospect, I think we could have had them in the house the entire time. I rarely break rules because I almost always get caught when I do.

The cats were incredibly happy to see us. Luckily they have little kitty brains because otherwise they would remember that I was the one that put them into the prison. They spent the entire night purring and sitting on our laps. I am so happy for them to be home.
