- My 2 older cats usually only go to the vet, which may explain part of
- it. I just call them high-strung because they don't like anything
- new very much, and most of the mixed cats I've seen seem to be more
- adaptable. We do keep our 2 in cages (since they almost made us
- wreck once) when we travel, but they never seem happy when we let them
- out. I suppose they might improve with more car time, but I don't
- think we'll need to take them anywhere soon.
