    I understand you love your cats, I love the 2 we have.

    But as Ridgeline said, that's unfair to keep them cooped up up in a truck cab all day and night. 1 cat? Perhaps. 2 cats? Maybe. 6 of them? No way. And what happens IF one or two escape at a truck stop? You can't find them, or they get hit?

    I'm not the best one to give information on lease-purchase, because I've never done that and have never had a desire to own or lease a truck.

    only temporary until i found a new place to live. i have plans to keep them safe. my other choice is an rv, but that would add an expense without adding income. whereas:
    1. i can live in a truck
    2. i can make money with the truck
    3. i would have to leave them alone longer in an rv
    4. i would have to keep ac/heat running for them somehow in an rv(whereas with a truck i would have an APU)

    "Temporary" could turn into 6 month's or longer.

    Do what you're going to do.
