Only 5 days before I leave for my Summer Palace, with Grace and Sam in tow. I've put both carriers in the house with comfy blankets and catnip in them to get them used to their temporary home, but so far only Sam has taken the bait. He's checked out both carriers but has definitely settled on one. Grace, on the other hand, won't go near them even with the enticement of catnip. For some reason I thought she'd be the easy one!
It'll be fine.
I'm nervous about a day and a half in the car with two howling cats and what that will do to their stress levels (not to mention mine).
It'll be fine.
My (first) surgery has been scheduled for right after I arrive, on May 8, so I'm nervous about that too. Who will take me to the hospital, who will take me home, how much pain will there be, can I go on my business trip at the end of the month, who will feed my cats while I'm gone?
It'll be fine.
What have I forgotten to do before my trip? I got my dentist and doctor exams out of the way, and I'll get my boxes shipped tomorrow and my oil changed sometime this week. Even though I have a list I've been using for 5 years, I always feel like I'm forgetting something. With two cat carriers in the car, will I have room for the stuff I can't ship?
It'll be fine.
Deep breath. Get some rest. Eat right. It'll be fine.
