Look, I love cats… but I worry about what the result would mean. We can’t just abandon the NCA dog in sub-saharan africa!

I somehow missed this thread and am just now catching up. What an amazing journey. Hope you’ll be able to make it to Australia and New Zealand. Lots of island nations in the pacific that would make for really interesting trips. For example, Tokelau doesn’t even have an airport.
