we both work. my husband would bring his father and/or brothers to work with him and my mil would stay home and cook, clean, watch lifetime or spanish soap operas and lately she knows how to walk to a few local stores and take the bus to the city. we are at the point now where they just make themselve at home. before we met and they would visit my husband woudl take them everywhere ie vegas, orlando etc. glad he got that out of his system before i met him. we took them on vacation with us once to the caribbean and we have sent them on two cruises to the caribbean. i love it because they have fun and we get a break for a week

But what about the cats? Do you think they will be put outdoors while you are at work?

I totally relate to not having someplace to keep them.
Don't you get a major discount at work?

Well, I thought you could ' treat ' them to a few night's stay, but maybe that's a bad idea.
