Oh yeah! Forgot to mention we finally got a hold of our neighbor down the block and he confirmed that, yes, he is definitely interested in adopting Snowshoe and Olive!

We are gonna text him in the next couple days and try to arrange a meeting, maybe see if Mama's in the mood to tag along and introduce herself.

He seems like an ideal candidate. He's got a really cozy-looking home, he's retired, he seems to be doing well for himself, he's got experience with cats, and I just got a really "sweet, good-humored guy" read off of him. And I think he's a NOLA native, which means he'll know what to do for them in a storm.

This is basically our equivalent of getting our kids into Harvard -- this is our #1 choice and could make this whole transition SO MUCH EASIER AND LESS PAINFUL.
