We used The Cat's Pajamas in Toronto when our moggies arrived and we were house hunting. They spent almost 4 weeks there and were very happy and well cared for.

Know how you feel, still can't quite get my head around this, all seems a bit surreal.

Will try and spot you....

the shippers came yesturday, Fox international, the problem was they only sent one bloke! i know i didnt have much furniture only boxes but it still took 5 hours for him to do it!, and trying to talk to him was like pulling teeth
still all that is out of the way,,,,, its so hard when you have never done it before, you are like blind, and getting the timing right keeps me awake at night....
house is really empty now, so going to sleep at mums 10 min away, at least she has beds

well what an awful flight that me and purple 80 had!, 2 machanical faults with the plane, one that left us on the stand for 2 hours and one in the air after about 5 min. ! but we coulnt land as we where too heavy with fuel so had a tour of the british Isles for 5 hours, yes, 5 hours going up and down with the captin sayining things like "on your left is the Isle of Man and on your right the Blackpool tower!" no drinks only water no food no films! the kids where boared stupid only to land back in Manchester again
then we had about 4 hours to wait for them to fix the plane and the we where called to get on the SAME plane and hopfully take off and be on our way.
the poor cat, he mut have wondered what the hell was going on!
but i watched them take him off and put him back on the aircraft, i was NOT going to let them keep him on all the time, he needed feeding and so on but the had no food for him, I did but the some how could not get it to him?
but he is in a wonderful catterie now having his holidays, its called the whiskers inn not far away in the country, lots of new animals to see out on his balcony:lol
going to spend spend spend now to furnish our new home......its like we have won the lottery!!
P.s idid not manage to meet purple 80 but there was a family at the immigration desk one was a lady with blonde hair was this you? we could see you through the glass but you where gone by the time we got through the first lot of desks. well hope everything goes well for you from now on.

OMG how awful esp for the kids, why could they not give you any food or drinks that doesn't ,make sense ? or put a film on for the kids awwww

At least the fault was found early and you got there safely, theres been lots of Airplane crashes and faults lately

well your there now and sounds like you are having a fab time shopping

Charlie does have long blonde hair so yes that was more than likely her, what a shame you didn't meet

Hope you have a fab time and keep us informed, how was the trip through immigration by the way ?
