Mom: No Madness, calm down. We are not moving to Greece.
Madness: But Mom, I heard you on the phone and you said Athens and I may be young but I know where Athens is. Greece!
Mom: No, we are moving to Athens, Georgia.
Madness: Georgia? ... Hmmm, where is Georgia again?
Mom: Well, see we are here in Louisiana, then it's Mississippi, then Alabama and then Georgia.
Madness: That looks far away.
Mom: No, it is not very far.
Madness: Is it as far as the vet?
Mom: Ahmm, it's a bit further than that.
Madness: I don't want to go!
Mom: Well, we have to.
Madness: Why?
Mom: Because here I get paid peanuts and there they pay heaps and heaps of temptations.
Madness: Really?
Mom: Ahhmm, yes really. And then we can stay in a house with our own yard.
Madness: Is Bubbles coming too? And Mrs. B?
Mom: Yes we are all going.
Madness: Bubbles doesn't look very happy about this.
Mom: Well, he just doesn't like to ride in the car.
Madness: Do I like to ride in the car?
Mom: Ahhhm, not really.
Madness: Can I bring my toys?
Mom: Yes.
Madness: What about my outside climbing tree?
Mom: Ahhhm, Madness the trees are stuck to the ground, they have to stay here.
Madness: But I like to climb! I wanna climb the tree!
Mom: Well, there are trees in Georgia.
Madness: Trees I can climb?
Mom: Yes.
Madness: OK then I'll come. Lets get my toys and go.
Mom: Well, we are not going right now. Only in October. It is still many thousands of cat naps away.
Madness: But I want to have heaps and heaps of temptations now!
Mom: *sigh* No Madness, we will have heaps and heaps of temptations later, in Georgia. Now just take a little nap.
Madness: I don't want to nap. I want to go to Georgia!
Mom: Ahhhmm, but the time will go faster if you start taking some of those naps now.
Madness: Really? OK. ZZZZzzzzzz.

Hey Madness

I love the way you talk to your human Madness! The move may be stressful but I am sure you will love it when you get there. Maybe you can go and visit Abby if she is nearby!
Sounds like you got a great new job. Congratulations.
That drive from Louisiana to Georgia with three cats should be a lot of fun. (muhahahahah)

Don't worry, Madness! I moved a very long distance, too, and it was okay. I slept a lot, and Merlin and I cuddled some, and then I was at my new place and there were lots of open windows. And that's a good thing.
Congratulations on the heaps and heaps of temptations!!!
A move! It sounds exciting, although it would be cool to go to Greece, too!
