p.s. to the garage cat

don't anyone worry that we will abandon mr. tommy when we get our own place! if i'm lucky enough to get one of the resident ministry positions for next year we'll be in a small one bedroom apartment, which is not my idea of a good place to try to introduce hostile kitties. however, because it will be so small (we saw two of them on friday; small but doable) and drew wants access to his computer data center equipment (i wish that was a joke but you all know it isn't), we're going to rent a small commercial warehouse space (1500 sq. ft. or less, no more than $1000/month). drew can put all his stuff there, plus our stuff that's in storage that we can't access unless it's right at the door will go there, too, and since one or both of us will be going to the warehouse everyday we are going to make tommy our warehouse cat. we're paying almost $250/month for the storage space already, so it won't be that much more for his space, and being able to actually get to our stuff will be very nice indeed, and we can take tommy with us. we have our eye on a place less than five minutes from campus. maybe we should try to introduce them, but i guess i'd have to read up on it. i guess it's theoretically possible but i've seen these nuts fighting outside when our kitties were indoor-outdoor cats, and boy oh boy were they ferocious! that's the plan as it stands and whatever happens, mr. tommy is coming with us.
