After Chey was so mean to me, lots of people came and told me that it was okay. I'm glad. Mom also spent lots of time on the computer saying lots of words that I'm not supposed to use to fix the comment problems on Chey's blog... Well now people can comment there I guess. I'm not sure why they would want to. She doensn't listen. Even Mom says she's the most stubborn cat ever.
Now maybe I can join the tabby ring because Georgia told me that I'm a tabby cat because I have stripes!

Gemini's First Post
Mom decided to let me post because she is letting Chey post over at her blog. I might get to post over there too. I hope so.
She decided seeing she has other blogs to write and lots of stuff on other blogs that Georgia and I could take care of this one. I hope Georgia doesn't want to write too much. I like this.

Delayed
The cats are thrilled. They will not be moving for another two weeks. Things got changed because of a family problem and they would be left alone for two nights and I felt better having them here with a reliable cat sitter they are familiar with.
My cat sitter really loves the cats and I think she'll miss Gemini more than she does me. I don't think I could have moved when I had my Siamese, Simone because she was devoted to Simone. She was more upset than I was when Simone died. I think I was just in shock though at the time.
It's funny how in the course of things you start thinking about the stuff you take for granted. I've never really taken having a wonderful cat sitter for granted but now I know that I will miss having that. I can go out of town for a day or two but know that if an emergency comes up someone who cares as much for my cats as I do will be there to see to it that they get fed. That's my biggest worry is that for some reason I wouldn't get home at the arranged time and they would get hungry or their litter box would get over full or something!
Kukka Maria may love to travel (if she could get out for spring break) but Gemini and her gang would rather just explore their home area and know what's predictable. Perhaps I should have taken her out more as a kitten? Hard to say. They like watching squirrels and jays outside and they will have more of that at their new home. There is the big tuxedo cat that wanders around named 8 Ball and they all like to get their backs up at him. He presses his nose against the window and looks in and just stands there while they act all huffy. I wonder what he thinks of their reactions as he saunters off?
Ah life as a cat--now they have no worries for a few more weeks...

Moving Day approaches
Gemini and her friends would like to thank all her blog friends for their comments.
We'll be a little haphazard with our blogging for the next few weeks as we get settled into our new place. The girls get to ride for three hours to their new home this weekend and the computer will have to stay behind until the next weekend. I have the joy of moving slowly and working two jobs--one in one city for a day early in the week and then one in another city later in the week for a day or two.. sigh.
We'll all be in chaos for a month or so and I'm not looking forward to it. I suspect the cats will thrive. They will have love and food for the times I am out of their town and that's a big reason they are going when they are. Another is that in selling my property, I won't have to worry about someone letting them out and the buyers don't get the cat litter smell they might get if they were still living here.
Like cat litter smells... Hmm. We clean it regularly...! We'll look forward to seeing you all more regularly and Gemini will be posting when she can get her paws on a computer so everyone knows that she's okay. Maybe she'll even be able to fit those large kitten paws on to a new keyboard...

Georgia has definitely decided something is up with the possessions slowly traveling out of the condo. I have assured her that she won't be left behind but she keeps a very close eye on me, particularly when the boxes are around. Gemini and Chey don't seem to understand what's happening, though they enjoy jumping in the newspapers and packing stuff that is always lying around now a days.
I have the bed blanket set to go with them, the afghan that is on the sofa, their food dishes, litter boxes and everything. They are going next weekend and then I'll be down at this place for only a few days a week. They'll be fine up there and well cared for though I know they will miss me.
We'll all be happy when this has settled down.

A Message From Beyond
I sent Gemini to mom. I think I can handle a minor cat stalker. He's a mortal cat,Kukka-Maria. While you might be the Empress of your domain, I am the late King of Cats. I could always handle anything feline related but as soon as I crossed the Rainbow Bridge, I became even more powerful. Have you ever tried to make the sound of a kitten mew extend for a quarter of mile and be loud enough to wake a human? I did. I can take on Stewie. Have no fear.Yes, FC, I am still watching the bushes at the White House. However, you might consider having me watch the people in there rather than the plants. The people are much more umm.. unusual...

Gemini goes to Work
Okay so Gemini is going to work. This is Kukka Maria's fault. She was talking about needing a place of her own and I thought that Gemini and her friends ought to start earning their own way... And so here is Gemini's first foray in to that.
She has a renter on her blog! Yes that's right a renter. Rob in China snapped up the space that we had to rent and I hope that all you cats out there want to see what's happening around the world. Oh, I'm sure that it's not nearly as exciting as what's new in catnip, what's happening with the feline empress (whom Gemini strives to emulate) or the latest in cat toys, but there are some great shots off food on the blog--keep scrolling down, kitties, you'll understand...
At any rate, as a regular reader (okay so we don't just talk to cats all day online) I was flattered that he wanted to rent one of my blogs. Hopefully you'll become regular readers too!
