Unfortunately, the story of many animals of missionaries is one of change. Not often do they travel from place to place with their owners but some do. RFIS's most recent director just left and brought along her little dog. I know of at least two ladies that have returned to the US with their felines. One elementary teacher brought her beloved dog with her to Cameroon!
Most of the time pets need to be re-homed. We had to do that with our fur babies two years ago so we do have a little sympathy where the animals are concerned.
Kristi decided that Fuzzy needed to stay here in Cameroon since he is such a hunter and outdoor cat. She arranged a new home for him that is just above the apartment that she lived in with him, which is the apartment we now live in. Well, guess what. Fuzzy isn't interested in living in his new home. There are some reasons... 1) Orca - the other cat and 2) Rocky - the large, interested dog puppy. Orca should go to his next home in a couple more weeks so we all decided Fuzzy could sleep on our porch and we'd continue to feed him so he doesn't just sit outside and cry. So that is going ok. Here's some pictures to prove it.
So, that blue chair was one of his favorite places to nap. I decided he could keep that so I put a cover with it in case I wanted to use it.
But did he choose to sleep on that chair?
Of Course Not. He preferred the cushions which was all well and good until...
And you see that clothes rack in the background? This morning we woke to discover it collapsed. Did he really try to jump up on that unstable, sheet covered rack?
Well, at least he is not crying outside our window at night!
