The neighbor's trial was today. Mom's brother consulted with the State Attorney and the results were almost everything we hoped for. He was fined for the assault, ordered to attend six months (twice weekly) of anger management training (at his own expense) and is subject to periodic unscheduled reviews for up to one year to ensure that he is taking his medications and seeing his therapist. The No Contact order was also extended as an added protection against him bothering us again. Mom is relieved and hopes that we can begin to get back to normal. The stress of this situation has added a few more gray hairs to mom's head. We are going to take this weekend to unwind, maybe watch a little football, and let our hair down. We want to thank everyone for checking on us and for your prayers. We are very greatful for all the support and caring and hope to get back to regular blogging and commenting.

Yipes! We haven't visited in a while, and when we get a chance to drop in, we find ourselves in the middle of a bad TV movie.
We hope you kitties stay way away from this psycho.
Good luck, Astor's Mom, and keep a baseball bat (or shotgun) behind the door, at least for a while, OK? We have a bad feeling things are not over yet.
Thank goodness that the judge put him in his place. Let's just hope he follows through on what he is supposed to do.
Purrs to all of you. Chill and have a good weekend.
That is good news!
Yes, relaxing always sounds like the best thing to do! Have a great weekend ...
We are SO GLAD to hear of the results of the Bein Trial! Glad that that VERY ODD BEIN is prevented from botherin ya any more.
We so hope that this will be an end to the situation wif da neighbour. It has been such a stressful time for all of you. We think it a great idea to kick back and watch some superbowl.
Moe & Mindy
WooHoo!!!!! Finally! We are so happy that things might actually get back to normal now! Hope you do have fun this weekend :)
We have missed you!

I hope this is the end of all the trouble from that neighbor. It must be nice to have it behind you so you can relax and have fun again.
I'm glad the trial is over. Sometimes Florida seems like the Wld Wild East.I swear this state is a nut magnet. I hope that neighbor does follow through with his classes and supervision, but I'd keep the surveillence system active and that baseball bat close at hand.

Hope all goes well for you and your family now and that the disturbed man will get the help he needs (and meds) to help him function in reality and not in some paranoid state.
Take care and be safe.
Good news! I hope you were able to enjoy your weekend!
Hi guys .I hopr things are still going well for you .I miss you too :)

I am so glad the judge did what he should do . . . too bad they can't lock him away permanently to keep him away from you kitties and your mom! I hope things get back to normal for all of you now. Purrs, and I hope you had a happy and restful weekend!
I am so glad that everything went well with the trial. I hope your neighbour continues with everything he needs to do. Be well!
Waa hoo! We're so glad to hear that it might al be over for you all. Let's hope that he stays on track!
Purrs,

We're glad the trial is over. Hopefully things can get back to normal around there. Lots of purrayers for you guys.
Glad to hear that some justice was done in your case. That guy had better stay far away from all of you.
I'm glad you prevailed. I hope this takes care of that nutball once and for all. Otherwise I can stop by and remove some of his flesh for you.
I hope things are OK.I worry because your neighbour is so unstable.

Happy Valentine's Day!
We are sorry we have not visited anyone much lately because Mom has been sick. It is good news about your neighbor!

Good news! We hope that maybe the anger management courses will help to make him better!
Enjoy the week - without stress! The maid says she knows how to cover that grey hair - she gathered a lot (stress related ) over the course of her life too!
Join CAT IDOL!!! Think of it like American Idol but with cats. Everyday a cat WILL get eliminated based on the fans votes. Since it is American Idol season I say we try it. Since with the new style it will not matter the number of cat pictures I will need. So feel free to join! Just remember to take a picture of your cat with your thumb showing in the picture (this is done to prove that it is really your cat). Send the picture to admin@wozog.com. The winner gets 32 bucks, but most importantly will go on the WOZOG hall of fame with their picture! I have gotten many pictures after this tournament started so there will be more competition. But it will be FUN!!! www.wozog.com
Gosh what a sad situation with the neighbor. I would be so restless all the time with worry about that kook! Please take very good care of your mommy Astor cats!
