I’ll be out of touch for the next week or so, as I’m taking the doggies on a road trip.  I am taking some time off of work so that we can go to Florida — whoo hoo!  I found a great Orlando pet hotel to stay at, and since we’re driving down, we’re stopping on [...]

Traveling with our pets is partly for the pets, so that they don’t spend the time locked in a kennel, but it’s mostly for us.  I don’t know about you, but anytime I travel without my pets, I end up missing them quite a bit — I miss the warmth of my cats sleeping on [...]

We’ve had a rash of good weather lately, and I’ve been gearing up for my next trip.  I’m long overdue for a visit to a friend in the PNC, so I’ve been looking for a pet hotel in Seattle.
