Installing Indoor Cat Tree

[helenp]

Hi Everyone,

Me & Hubby have just had an offer accpeted on a fantastic new house with a 1/2 acre garden and an acre paddock. Just wondering if it is normal to feel daunted by the prospect of moving into a new house when I have just got the one we have how I want it? I know it will mean more room for my girls as I can build them a perment run,and my cats will love it, but there are just a few nerves.

space space space!!! just think of all the extra room you will have...

how lovely!

[Lesley]

We had just extended our house and decorated it as we wanted it, when we founf the smallholding - I know just how you feel, but you will have so much fun with all that extra land

[Karen & co.]

How wonderful Yep it is perfectly normal, I cried when we left our first house that OH and I had done up and made ours, especially as the one we moved into was dirty and had so many bodge jobs we lost count

 

Now we are about to move back in after an extension, and I can't wait

 

You will love the extra space, and of course so will the chooks

absolutely normal. I had spent years (and umpty-thousand pounds) getting my last house exactly how I wanted it, new bathroom, solid wood floors, kitchen etc but it wasn't in the right place (too far from friends) and the garden was tiny. It was a lovely house, and the new buyers couldn't wait to move in, which somehow made it easier!

 

There are always going to be bits you miss, after all you wouldn't have chosen to live there otherwise, and that's natural - focus on the positive reasons for moving, like the extra space. Bet you're going to love it!

Oh, yes, I'm sure it must be entirely normal. We're currently planning on putting our current home on the market and just the thought of it is giving me separation anxiety

Your new home sounds great though, all that space, you'll settle in in no time. Good luck with the moving process though

Congratulations on your offer being accepted All that space to fill with chickens

 

We have been looking for the perfect place for 2 years now Trouble is I love this house, but it is not quite in the right place I want to take it apart stone by stone and put it in the middle of a field

 

Enjoy the adventure and your paddock

Wonderful news Helen you will enjoy the new place no end!

[pepe]

Well done Helen I know what you are going through. We are moving up to Bath in three weeks, I love this house and we have got it just how we want it, we have been in it for 10 years lived in Cornwall 17 but its time to move on. Our new house only needs decorating, well you never know until you get in there! But now its nearer the time we just want to go. Just looking for work now Best of luck keep us posted.

Hi

Thank you for all the great advice, I know I will love the new house so much, its just a shame that e have done so much our current home. The house in still in Derbyshire, just 15 mins from where we are now.. I'm already thinking of what new additiions I can add to the family!!! Hubby would love some ducks, as we can build a pond that would be cool.. I have always wanted a goat and a donkey!!!!

[chelsea]

Congratulations on your new move !!

 

im very very

 

keep us posted and would love to see some piccies of the girls in the paddock.

 

Are you going to keep any more animals?

 

please dont say PIGS, cos then I'd be really jealous

[helenp]

eventually I would love a pig!! Totally mad on piggies (cried at Charlottes web last weekend!!). Only issue is i'm a veggie & hubby a committed meat eater, so he wants to raise a piggie for food & i do not, as i could never ever let them go once I'd raised him/her from a baby!! Time will tell if I come round to the idea!!

If not a piggie, then a donkey would be cool.

[chelsea]

you sound very similar to us. Hubby will eat anything that moves/carnivore and im a veggie too.

 

Donkeys and pigs would be fab !!
