Yep, I got to go to the mountains this past weekend. I just love the mountains so much and I'm SO glad mom takes me all the time now. I'm not crazy about the pill she gives me, but I also know I don't like it when I don't get it cause I get all worked up.
Anyway, we went up Friday and stayed til Sunday. I lounged around on the sofa, one the bed, explored all over. I even hung out in the bathroom while mom got a shower, something I don't get to do at home. I guess one of the reasons I like the mountains so much is cause I get to go anywhere I want in the cabin. I know it's my fault for going potty where I shouldn't at home and that's why I don't have the run of the house there. I'm just really happy mom takes me now. Although, I wasn't too happy with all the noise on Saturday and to tell you the truth, I don't think mom was either. A bunch of dad's Ridge Runner buddies were at the cabin all day. And when I say all day, I mean all day. They showed up around 11am and never left until like 5 or something like that. I do know mom wasn't happy and her and dad were arguing cause of it. Hey sorry dad, but I have to side with mom on this one. They are way too loud and even I can't get any rest and that's saying something since I can sleep through just about anything. Poor mom comes up to relax and all she has is a bunch of guys talking louder than a thunderstorm. For some reason I don't think that will happen again anytime too soon.
Our trip home wasn't that good. The vet told mom to try and cut my pill back to 1/8. Going up I was okay with that, but coming home was another story. I got myself really worked up and was panting a lot. Mom made dad pull over and gave me another pill and I did finally calm down after a little while. I know mom wants me off the pills and I should be use to going in the car by now as much as we go, but it still bothers me. Hopefully it soon doesn't.
I did get to hang out downstairs with everyone when we got home. I sit on the top of mom's recliner for a long time. When I got tired of sitting there, I jumped down and laid behind it for a while then I finally went back upstairs to the bedroom. Mom said she likes when I hang out with them. I'll have to do that more often.
Well, that's about all I have for you. I don't know when our next trip to the mountains will be, but I'll be sure to tell you about it when we go. Have a good one!

Purrss Henry When our Mom used to do a lot of cat showing, she was always taking cats on car trips. We would always ride in our crates. Most of us, already knowing crates are a secure refuge, settled down and learned to at least tolerate the long car rides to the shows. Some of us learned to love riding and going to shows. Interestingly a number of these were also the same cats who learned to enjoy the routine bath they were given 2 days before shows! A few never did get used to the car ride part of going to shows. Only one of us however, always got so excited/upset that everytime she went to a show she would manage to poop on herself even though she had a special travel-sized litter pan in her crate as we all did. Mom had to give her a number of last minute baths right before a show, a few of them even in the show hall bathroom when she was one of the first cats that was supposed to go into the show ring!
