Salamanders and PODS

Ok, 2 post in the same evening.... gosh I could become a twitterer...

Well, I was chatting with Lance, pretty sure he was an Australian chap, sweet as pie. Trying to get schooled on PODing & to get a quote when darling Jaz bounds through the cat door to my right, and proceeds to the red Pakistani rug to my left, and starts going in circles... must be a critter.

Yup, salamander.

I share the news with Lance, who is amused. I manage to dispacth little sallie back to the wilds while keeping up with Lance. He has a cat, and has wished me well in my, um, task.

Well, FYI - the POD thing is convenient, yet not as wallet friendly as Broadway Express. $4200 for the POD for a month, which included the cross country move that would take a minimum of 9 days. BE, for the record, is only $2400... yup, BE still wins, and they did such a nice job with James' move to NC a few years back...

So, here I sit, checking out the auto transport quotes, and wouldn't you know it...

Jaz busts through the door again with sallie. Sallie got away, and damned if I can find her... nothing about this is good. They are very quick and fragile and soft... and probably smell when the die and are in a corner somewhere for a few days. Good job I am moving very soon!

Ever slept when 3 cats are tearing the place up trying to find the critter they smell? Me neither.

Any advice on finding a yound sallie in a place with beige carpet? I've got time for this, really.
