FOUNTAIN AND TALLMAN SODA FACTORY MUSEU

PLACERVILLE, CA

Assam, 4 June 2016 Naomi and I sold our house in Shingle Springs and I had to leave before the end of May of 2016 (Naomi was already in Japan at the time). We had already brought six cats to Japan (and they were at our house in Yubari) but Assam remained in California we me. I had to board her (at one of our vets' clinic) for a few weeks. I visited her most days and sat down with her on the floor so she could wander around and get some exercise. I also brought her snacks (and snacks for the other boarded cats) and some toys.
