Best laid plans....

...it had to happen sometime but we're pretty annoyed....

Email this a.m. informing us that our sitters have to leave as, due to his previously undisclosed emphysema, the man cannot breath at our altitude.  I chose them, from amongst several potential sitters, for their experience on lots of sits.  I feel the headline of my posting on the house-sitters web page "Costa Blanca Mts" should have given them a clue that we are not at sea level!  I also think she should be prepared to stay on til we find replacements.  The summer sitters, who have just pulled out, offered to fulfil their obligation with the wife sitting whilst her husband returns to the States as his mum is injured.  We have said no as we've plenty of time to find replacements.

Have spent the day contacting the web page and anyone I can think of to step into the breach....not surprisingly, no luck so far.

Rant over....I'm sure I will fond someone although the logistics of car- use could be tricky.  We're very lucky that our neighbour Margaret has said she will feed the cat between sitters.......watch this space!
