The Cats Are Alright

This post is for Penny (our human friend) who asked about our cats!

The cats were really traumatized by the 20 hour journey to our rental in Nantes, and so were we! We did the best we could, but especially for Penny, who has never been confined to a room, much less than a carrier… he was freaked out. He hid under the duvet for days. but finally he emerged and since then has grown more brave every day.

Both cats have adapted well. Biscuits seemed to take it all in stride. Shes older and has been through 3 moves previous to this one. I really feel like she knew what was coming.

So today they are happy. They play constantly, eat normally, drink plenty of water and are super cuddly both with us and each other. They are both super sweet kitties. I’m sure they miss the outdoors, the freedom, the deer, mice and chipmunks. But they seem well adapted and content. We always tell them- we’re together and that’s what counts!

The latest development is that Penny got brave this morning and for the first time, spent time looking at the window at the cars, bikes and people running by.
