For those of you who don't know DH, the boys, and I moved this weekend. We are staying in the same apartment building, we simply upgraded to a two bed room two bath. The move was horrible, but that's a different thread all together. Don't worry. I'll start that one later. This is the story of the boys.

8-Bit:He freaked out. After large amounts of yowls and meowing he finally found his way into the china hutch and hid. DH and I figured he was trying to play Dr. Who, because every time we opened the door he'd peak his head out wanting everything to be back to the way it was.

Scratch Fury Destroyer of Worlds: Hasn't stopped meeping since he's been here. He keeps hiding under my covers thinking I won't see a large lump.

Dr. D Claw: Is the bravest of the bunch! I'm so proud of him. He's been wondering around and sniffing things.

They are all out exploring now, so things are getting better. Feliway is really helping.

Dr. Claw is probably doing the best because he hasn't been at your house that long, he has not gotten used to anything yet. Maybe the others will see Dr. Claw exploring and they will follow his lead.

I hope they are doing better tomorrow.

Awwww poor sweet boys!!!! They'll get used to it soon enough, and I agree that Dr Claw is just not too bothered about another new place, and I also agree that it will probably help the other 2 boys get settled in.

I hope everyone settles fast (including you guys!), and you enjoy the new place!

I just hope that the payback isn't too severe....


Congrats on making the move on up - now come the fun part: settling into the new place!


I'm looking forward to the continuing antics of your crew!

Glad to hear that they are settling, and no matter what happened or happens, always remember that it could be worse.

Payback begins....

8-Bit just climbed the new mini-blinds. I think he's going to try to kill me in my sleep.

Poor kitties...and poor you! I don't think there's anything worse than moving!!!

Hopefully you all can settle in nicely...I'm sending "unpacking vibes" for you.

Not so much the payback...but hearing about it.
It just makes my day to hear what "the boys" did to get them back!


Apparently I take pleasure in other people's pain!

I have wonderful news... after spraying down every surface I could find with Feliway the boys came out last night and started getting adjusted to the new apartment.


I was woken by three kitties standing at the end of the bed demanding to be fed!


This is too funny... as I was typing this Scratch launched himself at the window right next to the computer. He missed. And landed, claws and all, onto the right side of my body.
My shy guy has paid me back.

Yayyyy!!!! A hungry belly always helps the adjustment process


I'm sure Scratch didn't mean to be uncoordinated
If it had've been 8-Bit though....

My thoughts exactly!


I'm glad the boys are adjusting well!

Yes, it could have been Bit crashing into the window. I imagine he's scouting new places to stash his treasures.

Make sure that you leave plenty of room behind the tv!

I have a feeling that 8-bit is not through with you yet!
