Before we went and also when we came back our luggage had to be thoroughly inspected.
The following are photos taken of The Boys doing just that.
Flynn: I have to make it smell right so any strange cats know the humans are spoken for.
Please don't go!
Eric: Uh oh, this can only mean one thing!
I'm not moving so don't try taking it now.
Flynn: I wonder if that will work for me.
Maybe I can pack myself in here.
It didn't work but at least they came home again.
Eric: Hi Dad! Glad to see you again.
I may make this my new bed.
Flynn: Well this is what I think of them deserting us!
Eric: I'm going to make sure the case is all furred up then they won't be able to go again.
We bet the boys wanted to get as much of their smell on the cases to prove you were owned by two very pawsome ,orange cats!

They were very good at trying to keep you home.
ReplyDeleteThat was such a fun series of photos and they sure were determined!
ReplyDeleteHow funny! And so typical... Binga is our main suitcase inspector here.
ReplyDeleteHaHa! If customs had pussy~cats, perhaps
ReplyDeletel'd travel a bit more...! Goodness! Are'nt
they thorough! :).
love it... and I wish we really could include them to all travels... ;o)
ReplyDeleteHehe. We start wondering whether you going travelling was the only thing those cats didn't get their will through.
ReplyDelete:D They sure knew how to rule over you!
What great photos of the Avery Baggage Control Team! Sammy knew the drill here - if the suitcases came out it was kennel time. Teddy will have his first experience with that next month! These photos are absolutely ADORABLE though - the boys did their best to dissuade you and Ivor from leaving AND made sure on your return that things "smelled like home" again!
ReplyDeleteLove, Pam
Well they sure tried!! MOL
ReplyDeleteThese two really were very thorough weren't they :-)
ReplyDeleteIt is always so much fun to see you two Angel boys.We so miss you. Jackie, Smoke the donkey is much better so I am leaning towards that he didn't founder but bruised his sole. You all have a great day and a good week end.
ReplyDeleteHow adorable!! My kitties hate it when I travel, too.
ReplyDeleteThey tried their best to keep you home ! Purrs
ReplyDelete... bet they would have enjoyed cruzin' ...!
ReplyDeleteIt's important to make sure they take a bit of you along! So they know what they are missing while they aren't around!
ReplyDeleteTrying to make yourselves stowaways, Eric and Flynn? What fun memories!
ReplyDeleteWe bet those had the best smells ever! Good to see you again, sweet angels!
ReplyDeleteEric and Flynn were the ultimate inspectors indoors and perimeter patrollers outside
ReplyDeleteWhat adorable photos.
Hugs madi and mom
those are so cute! Just adorable! xoxo

ReplyDeleteGreat flashback, I bet it was hard to leave them at home. I am surprised Eric never peed on your bags when you came home with strange smells :) XO
ReplyDeleteThat's so sweet. "How can you leave us???"
ReplyDeleteThose boys sure knew how to try and keep you home, and welcome you home. Love the boys and these photos to bits!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for coming to Einsteins Birthday! He was thrilled that Angel Eric and Angel Flynn flew down to visit. Purrs dear friends
Einstein and Timmy
Oh My! Daddy is back, as Mommy needs some help this week and I, Marvelous was exploring Daddy's suitcase. Kozmo did not like that at all and was most vociferous in his objections to my rolling about on his clothing!

I have had all six of our kitties inspect and claim ours and any visitor's luggage! Like it was their job! Just like Eric and Flynn...must be a kitty job we didn't bargain for:)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness boys! You had the entire thing worked out except keeping them home BUT I know your furs on and in the luggage were themes welcome addition to them. They got to take you with them in absentia!
ReplyDeleteGood plan to spread your scent all over Angel Eric and Flynn, you had to make sure the peeps are yours :D Pawkisses for a Happy Weekend :) <3
ReplyDeleteThe boys were probably thinking that there was plenty of room for two cats to fit in those bags...
ReplyDeleteI'm late, how did I miss this?
ReplyDeleteOh, how I remember how much the boys loved the cases! First the novelty of something new to play on when the cases were first taken out and secondly, all of those delicious new smells on the return. What a treat!
The boys look so handsome and excited, too bad they couldn't come along. The would have charmed and captivated everyone onboard.
Missing Eric and Flynn as always.
Eric and Flynn had a great idea! That way strange kitties won't get the idea to follow you home.
ReplyDeleteHa ha. Eric and Flynn were some smart and resourceful mancats!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your thoughtful comment about Zoe. We miss her so much, but your love and kindness are great comforts as we mourn her passing.
We just do not know how your mum and dad could have gone off and left without you! But we do know everyone was very happy when they came back!
ReplyDeleteA luggage cat-scan is always the best security!
ReplyDeleteAww, these are great photos! I bet the boys were greatly missed during your cruises.
ReplyDeleteLove the photos! Mine do the same thing--and my sister had one cat who used to pee in the suitcase!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice that they donated some orange and white furs in your luggage to make sure you didn't forget them... as if you ever could.
ReplyDeletexxoo
Lovely photos and memories!
