I am just 6 days from picking up my new baby from the airport.
It happened like this, my husband and I have 2 cats, Guppy is an 8 yr. old male tuxedo that we've had since he was about a week old(bottle fed and all that good stuff) and Moxie a 1.5 yr old black female that we've had a little over a year. Our friend found eating some trash surrounded by barking dogs. She is a sweetie and fits in with our little family perfectly. Fast forward a year, my husband(Ed) was working on a very intense project that required almost all of his time and I don't remember exactly how "the deal" came about but it was pretty much that at the end of the project I get a shpynx.
I've loved Sphynx since I was young and used to call breeders(to their dismay) in the back of Cat Fancy magazines and ask questions in my most adult voice :x It was in the middle of the project that I realized I could ask for something fairly pricey, so I asked for my dream cat! I think I may have just threw the idea out there and it stuck.
The project that ed was working on was a video game being released on xbox live arcade and the pc. The day after it came out while everything was crazy(it still is) i happened to look at the website of the breeder I had already decided on and saw that she had just the day before updated the kitten page! it seemed meant to be. I sent an email, picked my girl out, and made a deposit.
It's getting so close that it'a almost painful. I am SO excited and when I'm going to sleep at night I imagine picking her up at the airport and then cant sleep for an hour. Something I'm feeling nervous about that I'm hoping you can help me with is how the whole airport thing will go down, if you've had your kitten shipped. I'm very concerned about how early we should get there...
Thank you for reading all of this and I look forward to being a part of this forum!
