No matter how rich you are, it's possible somebof your cats will die or suffer during air transport. Unless you have your own private jet. I know they are street moggies, but they will also be exposed to novel pathogens in Thailand. If you won't remove the cats and are concerned fir their welfare, moving to a developing country might not be a good move for them. Put their needs first, not yours.

I think you can go to the Republic of Ireland on a UK visitor visa, but not the other way round. Probably best not to apply for 6 months visit. The tips are, first time, say you are coming for 6 weeks or less, and stick to that, even though you will get a 6 month multi-entry.

my wife shocked me when she revealed she had squirreled away 5 baht worth.

Your wife will want it to buy gold, and stick it into a drawer. Thai ladies don't trust the banks.

Most of the snakes are poisonous, such as cobras, green pit vipers. But then you also have also have big barsteward reticulated pythons getting into homes or gardens, and they will happily eat a chicken or a cat. There are about 40,000 snake invasions a year just in Bangkok, and its getting worse. Gruesomely fascinating. Don't click if you don't have a strong stomach.

Besides some apartments are ground floor, snakes can climb, and Thai housing is not built the same as western. Eg big airbricks in the bathroom.

Bye, z supporter.

Probably made a fortune from bitcoin and don't actually work. Hence this idea of taking 6 cats to the othet side of the world. What's that cost, about $12,000 or so?

Thai people are quick to go to the cops about farang they are unhappy with. And any farangs visa status is pretty precarious. I hope they realise they don't actually get to stay in Thailand on a contiguous basis for 4 years, unless they become thai tax payers. Changes are afoot in Thai taxation. Plus everytime you leave Thailand, there's always a theoretical possibility you won't be able to get back in, irrespective of 6 cats being left in a condo to eat each other.

Russians fighting for Putin is a bit like praising Germans for carrying out duties at a concentration camp.
