Molly needs your help!

[Miss Kitty]

Molly thanks you for all your good advice and man, I wish we did live near Atlanta...some SoWaler would have a visitor! My daddy (PawPaw) used to keep our Missy for us down in Houston. We would drive her down before we left for sowal for our two week stay. He loves Molly, but I fear she would be too much work for him.

I am now going to call the vet. They know me well... I am just a tiny bit neurotic about my furry child. Everyone has fallen in love with this doggy doll....maybe someone will volunteer! This is worse than ever leaving one of my kiddos behind!!!!

I agree with JohnRudy about the pet sitter. None of our pets has ever seen a kennel as an overnighter. With one dog and one cat, it is less expensive to have our house/pet sitter than to board them. In years past, other pets would come home sick, which was scary and expensive. This way, they do not have their routines interrupted and we also have someone to get the mail, newspapers, and deliveries daily. Ours charges $30/day and we just consider it part of the cost of going away. She charges $10 less if it's only kitty, because Butter can travel in the airline cabin and he's happy anywhere we are. Our sitter sends us e-mail about how the pets are doing each day (invaluable peace of mind) and has also saved the day by sending the occasional item or papers via overnight to us. She is there 24/7. You can find these people in the Yellow Pages, but we find the best source is either other pet sitters (who might be booked solid), through veterinarians' offices, or at local pet supply shops. (I do not recommend Petco...too young.) The pet sitter is the first call we make when planning a trip.

Good advice Donna...sounds ideal. I did just make a reservation for her at the Barking Hound Village. Got her a suite (I can afford it...I shop at TARGET!) and the gal was darling! We were invited to go over and visit, which we will do. This has worn me out and I need a nap.

Glad to know you have a place reserved. My dog is extremely sensitive, so we cannot board. She either goes with us or has a dog sitter. I have 2 people I use and the cost is the same as boarding. My friend spends the night and lets my dog sleep with her, just like the dog, Maggie, does with me. It is really fun because she enjoys the extra money and I have tons of books. The sitter thinks she is having a paid vacation. Responsible college kids are good options. You will definitely miss Molly while you are away.

For the ultimate in kennels view the following - there is an advertisement that you have to watch first - I don't know how to get around it. Too bad the kennel is not in Dallas so that Molly could get a massage while you all are cruising.
