Just to be perfectly neutral, the old owners really do have a huge barn, and they run a great service for disabled kids and adults with their stable.

I just don't want the cat that's supposed to be mine living over there.

I think he really is the reincarnation of my last cat I had to put to sleep (brain tumor, old age combination). He has the exact same miaow. And I think that's why he's determined to be here--I always knew Tommie would come back somehow.
