A very emotional day, as we said goodbye to our cat-owning days. We could have taken only one of them to the new place, and neither of them would have coped well with having to become indoor cats. Blue - the more obviously troubled un-rehomeable one with her bad leg, irritable bowels, and deep mistrust of people (except us, after many years) - went to a wonderful cat sanctuary in Surrey a few days ago. This morning we took Belle to a foster home near Bishop's Stortford, and either she'll be rehomed from there or the people there will keep her. Both of them are ten years old (at least), and Belle also has a bit of a history with cystitis so although she's very appealing she won't be easy to re-home. And then there's the saga of transferring their insurance policies. Just another nightmare tale that's taken up time we should have devoted to de-cluttering and move-planning...
