The latest on the improvements:
The floor guys are done, as of mid morning! They put their last layer of the topcoat epoxy and it is now drying! Should be ready for us tomorrow morning to open the doors and let all the cats cruise about.
The construction guys will be back in the morning. They have a bit to do yet: replace Alma's cabinet, put in the shelves in the Stuff Room, still hang up a few more sheets of vinyl boards, put on the floor mop boards and a few little odd and ends! Hoping to get things moved back into the Main Area tomorrow. Our rooms are rather squished!
And we have surgery on Saturday, so we need to get the back Thumper's Room into a surgery suite again! Won't take us long!

We've heard from Cherokee. He likes the laser light and the dogs and cat! He also enjoys watching TV. His favorite program is Blue Planet!
Here's some of the things the cats will be looking forward to--
Ramsay--his own bed in his own room for bedtime
Pania--climbing up on her tree to beg for more Pania Flakes
Marilyn & Kiara--the warm laundry on the yellow table
Jessie--being on top of the refrigerator to get her special meals
Gracie O'Mally--her special bed on top of the washer
Camvi--she's waiting to be back to sitting on the serving plates
Alma--her special home under the far countertop (she's done really good though!)
Cutie--her special spot for her baby food treat
Hensley--his beloved condo for his meals
Janie dog/cat--her pool back to where it's suppose to be--she can keep track of the cats better from the blue pool
Barin--his blue bench so he can hang over the back of it!
Isn't it great how so many have their habits that are a part of what they are!
Saturday, our sweet Kabu gets to go to his new home! I'm so happy for him--he picked his own mama himself! They will be here sometime in the afternoon.
It's mighty cold out there again today. Weatherpeople say warmer temps on Sunday thru Weds--in the 50's and 40's. Crazy weather. All the farm animals and the Porchies, Firecats, Barnies and Covies are doing super!
