1446.0. "House/catsitter wanted Aug. 23 - Sep. 7" by DOODAH::NEILSEN (Hot licks and rhetoric) Wed Jun 08 1988 14:45

    I'm looking for someone to look after my two old Siamese cats and
    my contemporary passive solar house in Brookline, New Hampshire.
    I'd like someone resident while Wally and I are cavorting in Edinburgh,
    Scotland, from August 23, 1988, to September 7, 1988.
    
    The cats are delightful: Hengist and Horsa are a sealpoint and a
    chocolate point, respectively, although they are littermates. Both
    of them have lived long and eventful lives, and at the drop of a
    FAVOR vitamin tab, will tell you *all* about them. Neither has any
    health problems at the moment, although Hengist has just returned
    from a three-week unaccounted for absence that we are calling his
    Outward Bound adventure. They are both indoor cats, although Hengist
    will try his damnedest to get out windows and doors. He never learns.
    
    The house is lovely too. Located in lovely rural Brookline, moments
    away from the big city excitements of Hollis and Mason, it has two
    bedrooms, a great room comprising kitchen, dining room, and living
    room, two baths, woodstoves here and there, thousands of books,
    topflight stereo equipment accompanied by records and discs, and
    cable TV. It is close to Potanipo Pond, which has a small but pleasant
    beach. It is ten miles west of Nashua on Rte. 130. 
    
    If you think you would enjoy two weeks in Brookline with two delightful
    cats, please contact me at BOOKIE::NEILSEN. Please don't respond
    to this note, but contact me directly. If you aren't interested
    but know someone who might be, let me hear from you.
    
    Thank you very much!
