a lot of interest

“For those of you who were curious about Pet Taxi, I am planning to take pictures to document the move. There has been a lot of interest amongst my friends, including one who just moved herself plus 19 cats from Philadelphia to Denver in a rented RV. If you would like to be added to the list of people who get emailed copies of the pictures, please let me know.”
