@roberto that's the plan but it will take a while. Current house is too crowded w/ 4 dogs, and our doggie door wouldn't keep her in the house. We have a lot of predators near us so it needs to be an indoor cat. Our son should be moving sometime in the near future with his two dogs, and one of our pups is living on borrowed time (bladder cancer), so we'll reassess then. I miss having one.
