This is Lido who used to be our cat. He is laying in the laundry basket in between the two seats of the moving truck. His "twin brother" Frisco was the A.D.D. one of the two and never lied calmly in the laundry basket. At the time this photo was taken, Frisco was probably climbing up the back of my seat or trying to jump on the Brian's lap. When we moved "home" from Washington DC in May 2006, we brought along our boys - Frisco and Lido. We created a cat haven for them in our car which we towed behind us. Their litter box, food dishes, water and lots of blankets were in the car. We cracked the windows, locked the doors and after a few hours of ear piercing shrills they seemed to actually like it. Once we hit Arizona the heat got to be too much and the kitties had to come into the moving truck cab with us where they could stick their faces in the air conditioning. Things got a little wild but all-in-all it wasn't so bad. After 6 months back in SD we were having major problems with the kitties :( Frisco broke through screens to go outside (which isn't allowed in our condo complex). He had a special friend even though he was supposedly fixed. He would run away when we opened the door and pound his head against the windows trying to get out at all times of the day or night. Shortly after they ruined our very first set of non-hand-me-down couches we decided maybe it would be best for all of us to be animal-less. So, our kitties were adopted out and we specifically asked for a nice home where they could be indoor/outdoor cats. We do miss cuddling with Lido (Frisco never could stand still long enough to let you pet him) but soon we will have a baby who can lay on Brian's belly and watch t.v. with us! Don't worry we won't adopt out our son if he ruins the furniture or tries to sneak out the window to meet with a mystery girlfriend.I don't feel like posting links so if you want to be tagged consider it done!
