Is a window catio a possibility? I once had a neighbor who’s husband built a couple (not those) for their apartment dwelling cats and the mini-catios were usually occupied when I drove by. (I guess the husband was also our neighbor, I just never talked to him…)
Snert!
Here’s hoping that things will get quieter once they get furniture and rugs delivered. And that she takes her stilts off when she is at home. Of course, back when I stilts daily, I was so used to them that it bothered my calves when I walked in flat shoes or barefoot.
We put the full length set up today. Well, hubs hung the curtain rod for me. I am fully capable of hanging a standard curtain rod myself, but I won’t do it to his standards. But it is hung and if I had a mind to start doing pull-ups, I could just open the french doors and start pretending.
The full length ones came with four panels and the shorter ones came with two panels. I tossed them all in the dryer to unwrinkle a bit and thought that I should sew the four long panels into two wider ones.
I don’t work with aquas. They are complementary to my primary colors so I didn’t have an abundance of matching thread, but after some digging I found a bit. First I hand sewed (yes, I do have a sewing machine, but it is just a basic one that can’t do the invisible stitching I wanted) a long panel and a short one together.
I called myself some unkind names and painstakingly unstitched everything, then spent another twenty minutes sewing two long panels front to back. More rude words were said and then Hubs finally got ready to put the rod up so the long curtains are hung and will get taken down later when I have the right color to do it right.
I am very happy with them, though. They changed the look of the room so much and the more fabric I hang on the walls, the quieter it will get.
The french doors have blinds between two panes of glass. The blinds stopped going up all the way which was really irritating me. I could open and close the blades, but I wanted to look at the forest without lines. Now that the drapes are up, I got inspired to go to you-tube and found the answer in about five minutes. More very rude words were said about not being smart enough to look there a month ago.
Brandishes spray bottle at you!
You warned us. I listened. I’m glad I listened, it sounds worse than I thought.
It is indeed magical! Work sure did get in the way of the important stuff!
There will always be thieves. There will always be people who abuse the system. Nothing you can do to change that. Buying yarn and spending your time to make a comfort item for a dying stranger is a kind and good thing, you help make the world a nicer place one lap blanket at a time.
That is not good. I would suggest she goes to the vet to get checked for a UTI. Her life has been somewhat stressful as well and stressed cats get UTI’s. Cats with UTI’s pee in inappropriate places because they are trying to find a place to pee that doesn’t hurt.
I’m glad you are getting your phone back, but know how much it sucks to use old tech when you are used to the new stuff. At least you will be able to make and receive calls again, that’s pretty important for a working stiff like you.
