I would. Amount varies on how much of a pain it is to move the stuff. Like sofa/bed up stairs vs boxes on level ground.
You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
There are three of them. $40 that they can split?

I let Squeaky out of the bathroom. She's freaking about the empty apartment.

Poor Squeaky, animals don't care for the whole moving thing much.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Many calming pets to Squeaky. Her house disappeared while she was on the litterbox!

The last time I moved I tipped $100, but they had to move furniture and about a half ton of collected comics and books down from one 3rd floor walkup and up to another one, with a side trip to store the couch that wouldn't fit in the door of the new place.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I think I have PTSD from moving.
I believe it. I never want to move again.
So, leave early and drive eight hours straight with the kitty? Or find a motel that takes cats and do it over two days?
Depends on your tolerance, and the cat's. Leo and I drove 8 hours straight moving from NJ to VA, and he did fine, slept in the crate most of the way.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Got my flu shot today, since I wanted to have it in plenty of time before I leave for the UK in three weeks.
Now my arm hurts. And I learned something new, which is that my heartbeat is soft (?), and that explains why machines sometimes have difficulty taking my blood pressure.

Ann, that's a ferret.

If kitty isn't fond of riding in a car, you may want to talk to the vet about a sedative. The first time we took Arthur to GA, we drove straight through (about 10 hours). Arthur didn't stop meowing pitifully until we passed Charlotte. The vet gave us some buprenex (which is actually a painkiller) for the drive back. He and we took that trip much better.

I've been talking to so many southern people the past couple of weeks that my accent has slipped way back into Appalachian Pennsylvania. I've been dropping syllables all over the place.
