I think I'm gonna
It just hit me....in a day I'll be conquering two of my biggest fears.
I'll be flying.
I'll be letting PJ & Punky go.
Admittedly, to an awesome home, but it's not any easier.
I have all this packing to do - for me & them. There are so many things I want for them in their new life that they cannot have go with (Uncle Dorian, a cat tree, me). They have settled in so well here, finally became adept at avoiding Ophelia (who would love nothing more than to kill them).
They sleep with me at night, Punky crawls on my head & chews my hair after my alarm goes off, then he gets some lovin.
I have to stuff them in a kennel for a 3 hour car ride. They then get put into carriers, hauled back out to go through security, then back in for up to 2 hours (depending on how long it takes to get through security). Then we have a 3 hour flight. An hour drive once we land to their new home. Seems like a lot for them, but I think they'll do alright. They specifically attached to me, which will help with them always being with me.
Yesterday at work, my sleep deprived brain went through the entire "worst case scenario" stuff....
What if the plane crashes? (I should never have watched Final Destination
)
What if sharky's really a psycho ax murderer? (Right...be a member of TCS for over 3 years to lure someone with two cats to kill them
)
What if PJ & Punky don't adjust well? (They'll be fine..)
What if they aren't happy there? (See above...they'll be fine!)
Will Ben step on them? (How will that be different from Macey stepping on them?)
What if either of Da Boyzz gets loose in the airport? (Just be tough, meowmy!)
OK, I'm just really not happy about letting them go anywhere, but it's probably what's best for them, even if it sucks for me!
The person going with me will flip if I start crying, so I have to try to be strong!
(That will never work)
