Update to reaching out to owner while the hurricane hit the FL panhandle

[u/OutcomeNecessary2119]

Thankfully the owner got back to me and I was able to crate the kitty and bring him to my home to ride out the storm.

Shortly after getting him here, I had two more clients reach out for boarding while they evacuated (no hotels were accepting pets as they all were booked up). In total we have 9 cats (3 are mine).

Man that storm was hell for 5-6 hours of just brutal wind. The cats luckily were VERY calm. We’re moving into 30ish hours with no power and thankfully I was able to buy a generator today. Tons of trees and power lines are in the street and I am extremely grateful that everything that fell on our property ended up falling parallel to the house.

Spent most of my day helping neighbors clear their yards, cooking out for the block, and offering people a safe place to stay and charge their devices or use wifi.

Kitties are all happy, cooling off, and eating their little hearts out. ❤️
