Cross-Country Adventures with a Cat
The drive from New Hampshire to central coast Oregon is a long one, so the Bux and I picked up a human friend for company and to share in the driving. While it was hard to decide who to hang out with more, Bux generally opted for the driver's lap - I think because he could hang out, but not get petted more than absolutely necessary.
The Bux seemed particularly well-suited to some of the more beautiful regions of the United States.
Eventually, though, we said goodbye to our friend, and arrived on the Oregon coast.We had a little time camping and walking...
(walking with a cat is not the most linear exercise)
....and a little time in a rental house. It was in a great location, and had a lovely view, but something was wrong with the door - somehow, it would open for me, but not for the cat.
Eventually though, while I tried my hardest to get him to sail with us, I had to go to work and Buxton and I had to part. A short-term home option had fallen through at the last minute, and we were fortunate to find a home with the wife of a co-worker of a friend's husband (community is amazing). I left the Bux in good hands and sadly departed for the next few months at sea.
