In Which We Slowly Move Toward Hawaii

shannon_aBack to the vet today. This was stage two of getting-the-cats-ready-for-Hawaii. With their first rabies shots now 30 days past, they were ready to have blood submitted for a Rabies titer test, which is meant to prove that they have enough antibodies in their blood to fight off Rabies. Hopefully in the next few weeks we get results back with sufficiently high antibody results, and then we're through one of the more time-consuming bureaucratic hurtles.
Next, we just need to get a second rabies shot that will still be active when we move, at least 30 days before the move, then do a ridiculous amount of paperwork coordinated with Hawaii, the humane society in Kauai, and our airlines. But I'm pretty sure that's all next year some time. Probably the spring or summer. Instead, we'll be moving away from cat prep and back to house prep, as we take on a gardener and a handyman.
(But in non-Hawaii-moving TODOs, we probably need to get Callisto and Kimberly through surgery first, or at least before we have those folks showing up here.)
And the early week drama regarding the move has dissipated. Not only did my folks easily find people to rent our Kauai house until we get there, but they in fact had two people begging them to rent it on the same day.
So, the Kauai house should be rented from now until the end of 2019, and then it should be ready for our move in a few weeks later.
Two steps forward and none back, today at least.
