We have some guests staying at our B & B, so there has been a little 'Cat Juggling' going on around here.
The Country Suite is Kely and Bebe's room when no one is staying with us, but they agreed to give up the nicest room in the house to Neelix and Tasha, cuz they are kinda fraidy cats and the Country Suite has a big bed to hide under. . .
You can see Tasha's laser eyes from inside the carrier on the left, Neelix is more relaxed and letting Teri pet him today...
BUT the Library Room is Carlos and Zeuss's room, so they had to move down stairs into Sammy's Room (which Teri still calls the Stud Room even though Sammy isn't 'studly' any more, hahameow). . .
So you might wonder where Sammy is! He is in the kitchen in our Condo Tent and seems content to twiddle his dewclaws and doesn't seem bored at all.
Teri is thinking that if she rents out the basement (she will have to get a house mate to meet expenses since she lost her job and when she gets a new job it will more than likely pay less) that she will set up the big cage that is in the stud room.
It's 6' tall and 4' wide and has resting perches (this photo is from the catalog, but Sammy would have heated beds and hammocks to lounge on, too). She will put it in the kitchen so Sammy can be more 'part of the goings on' and he'll like that.
And we have another guest, an elderly gentlemancat named Old Boy. He doesn't get around much and is very frail, so he is staying in our half bath off the kitchen.
His owner, who is an L.V.T. friend of Teris (she watched us when Teri went on vacation last April) says as long as he has his blankie and his heating pad, life is good. . .so that's what he has and he seems content.
He gets meds twice a day, but is an agreeable patient and Teri tempted him with some of our Rabbit canned food and he ate a whole 6 oz can yesterday! He wasn't too interested in his food, so it's good she tried something new and he liked it!
And Soc and Spike participated (without a fuss) in a fashion shoot today, too! Teri had some outfits out that she was deciding if she was going to sell or not and put them on the girls and set up the 'studio' (a cardboard display with pretty sparkly fabric draped over it) and took a couple of photos to send to their Cat Mom. They turned out pretty cute!
So that's what's going on here on the last Caturday of August! Pretty busy round here, and Teri says she is going to work on the basement on Sunday and Monday and try and make some headway down there.
Her mom helped her clean and purge the rest of the house, but the basement mess is mostly stuff that needs filing or putting away. Teri is a great one for saying 'I'll just set this here til I can put it away' and it just sits and sits and sits there. Just multiply that one thing by about how many toes we have and you'll get the picture!
She read a quote yesterday that hit home with her and her procrastination issues. . .
So, how's your Caturday going?? Hope you have time to Hop, too!
Wow! Sounds like your B&B is full up!
ReplyDeleteWow, you sure have a busy house right now, everykitty gettin moved around a bit, an so many visitors!
ReplyDeleteThat quote is so perfect. Our mom gasped when she saw our dad's workroom in the basement a few days ago, and she won't even go into the den/office anymore! Wishing you good luck Teri with your clean-up project. We are so confused as to which cat is where by the end of the post. Glad you have a handle on it Teri. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Msuricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
ReplyDeleteSounds like y'all have a full house! What a great idea to rent out the basement. That's using your noggin.
ReplyDeleteSock and Spike look adorable, of course that first pic of Disco won our Mommy's heart.
Have a great Labor Day! xoxoxo
