Cats and New Furniture
Hi All
Last night we bought 2 large bookcases.....both 7 ft tall....anyway.....to fit them in the house it took quite a bit of furniture rearrangement. ANYWAY.....Gizmo was less than impressed as her "in the sun" hiding spot no longer exists and the front window is a bit harder for her to access (requires her to jump over a chair and around a box). So last night once the deed had been done and we'd gone to bed we could hear her "investigating" (we were given looks all night as if to say "and did you consult me on this?" and "does my opinion not count anymore?")......periodically she'd meow....I think she's daunted by the 7 ft bookcase as she can't jump to the top of it!!! (heaven forbid). And this morning when I got up she'd positioned herself on the only piece of furniture that hadn't been affected by the rearrangement!!! Fussy cats!!!! Angela and Gizmo P.S. The bookcases are wonderful.....more crap on them now and less on the carpet!!! |

The bookcases are wonderful.....more crap on them now and less on the carpet!!! Reminds me of an incident with Bunter years back. We were remodeling our kitchen, and had moved the table and chairs to a different part of the room temporarily. Bunter kept walking around the table, giving us a look, and then parking himself in the spot where the table used to be. Obviously, he was telling us, "this is where this belongs - now move it back!"

The top of my kitchen cabinets is around 9 foot off the floor and Apache can get to the top in one bound. -- Jette "Work for Peace and remain Fiercely Loving" - Jim Byrnes http://www.jette.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ |

How remiss of you to purchase new furniture without consulting the head of the household.;-) -- Adrian A House Is Not A Home, Without A Cat. |
