Thanks Sult:) Yes, it helped pay off some debt and will be helping with our costs of getting the cats over to Mauritius with us. We're moving in 6 weeks! Eeep! Due to their paperwork delays the cats might only be able to fly in September and will be staying in a cattery from June.
I've been powering down to also help with those costs. Hoping the cryptos have climbed nicely by the time I need it.

I am going to have to look up where you are headed, that name is not ringing any bells in my head. But it is a shame that the cats won't be traveling with you when you leave.
It is crazy how people can move in and out of countries all the time without any questions of healthiness and a pet can tied up for months in paper work and examinations.
At least I know what is up when you are missing for periods of time in the next couple months. I automatically think it is health related if not.

It is very silly. 2 blood tests 90 days apart, then another 30 days before they can fly, then another 30 days in Quarantine on that side.
Mauritius is an island to the right of Madagascar. They're the home of the extinct Dodo bird and also known for the underwater 'waterfall' of sand off the coast.
It is going to be interesting to see what the move does with my health. We're trying to stagger the stressful parts a bit with some holiday time with family before we go.

Well thanks for the geography lesson and the lay of land so to speak sounds like an interesting choice of locals to choose as home. The blood tests and quarantine requirements are a little excessive in my opinion. I ;ll keep you both in my prayers as you tackle this move.
