Getting Real About Moving…

Hiya! Savannah Here!

Well, I am getting real about how much time this move is taking for Mom and Dad…and I am trying really hard to nap through most of it…

So, I asked Mom to feel free to do a few posts that repeat of some of my very first ones…I didn’t have many readers and so maybe some of you will enjoy seeing where my thinking was at the beginning of my blog career!

…this is one of the first photos Dad took of me…it was the first time I initiated making contact with Mom…I am sort’a resting my butt on her footsies…

…it was a beginning…

So here is something I think is so impawtant that I wanted to repeat it too…I hope you will all agree with the Tem Commandments for Animals…my former shelter Kitty Corner gives this to all new adopters…hope they read it…

The photos are my before me brothers, Boris (orange and white) Popcorn (orange fluff ball) and my sister Tasha (yes, she had the ‘tortie-tude!’)…and of course there is one of me lying down…you can see my cute front paws with white tips…

Thank you for your patience and understanding. I won’t be visiting much at all for the next 4-5 days. I will try to respond to comments on my posts. And I will post once a day…repeats from my beginning…but a post none the less.

OH YEAH! Mom just reminded me…yesterday was my  200th post!!! Woo Hoo!!!…

    I had not seen this picture of you on your Mom’s feet before. MOL!
    I do feel you seem much more “at ease” now though.
    We are with you in thought and purrs! Soon the moving will be over and it will be fun to explore the new place.

  4. You really should let my mom help out. She LOVES to move and re-organize and stuff.

    Hi Darling Sorry I has not visited in a couple days–my Human has been “wurking” too much and has not provided the kind of service I deserve. Sounds as though your Peeps are not providing your usual 5-Star service either.

    I didn’t know you when you started blogging so I liked reading today’s post. We approve of the commandments!!! XOXOXOX

    Don’t worry; all this “moving” stuff will be over soon. When you get to your new house, all your stuff will be there and most important your Mommy and Daddy. It’ll be fine.

  9. Good luck with your move!

  10. CONGRAT!! OMC, 200 is so good!

    I bet Pip would love to do an interview with you guys – you should hop over and ask!

  11. Congratulations on your 200 posts! I know that the move is going to make you nervous, but there comes a day, soon, that it will all be over and you wont even remember the scary bits!
    Love the commandment thing!

  16. Congrats on your 200th post! Major accomplishment! Moving isn’t THAT bad!!! We have done it a few times (with cats) and all went well! Hang in there!

    • Thanks Cody and Miss Caren and Dakota. We have moved across the US with 3 Siberians and 2 cats. Cats flew with Dad and Mom drove the dogs. We just have never done a move with a cat like Savvy that we cannot pick up. She has to cornered and we hate doing it): And, we giving our home back to the bank and renting first time in 30 years. So sme sadness involved for sure. But, we are moving forward and that is always good. Hugs Mom and Savvy

  17. Good luck with the move. Hope everything goes smoothly. Everyone will understand that you simply cannot get to their blogs whilst in the middle of all that. I, for one, am thoroughly impressed that you’ll be posting at all!
    Love the early posts as, having only been around a very short time, I missed them, so it’s fantastic to catch up.
