Kitty Condo Improvement

Skeeter: LC can go outside in the cold fluffy stuff (and then complain about it) if she wants, but I am more concerned with the in-the-cave stuff. I really like the lower platform, but I told The Big Thing that the taller 2 ones shake when I get up on them and I didn't like that. He wasn't sure what I went, so when I wasn't paying attention, he picked me up an put me on the top one. He could have just believed me! To be fair, he did try to coax me up to it on my own, but I wouldn't go up there even for kitty-crack. As I tried to move, it did the little shakey thing. He was surprised! At least he picked me up after and sat inna chair and scratched me for a long time. Then he gave me a couple kitty treats that I like but LC doesnt.

He says he unnerstands he made some mistakes. I have to type this carefully cause I don't unnerstand all the words: "The metal braces are too springy, the 2x4s are too narrow an should be 4x4, there should be a board attaching the posts, the posts shouldnt be carpetted, an old carpet is too stiff to wrap tightly, an he made it too big".

So, he went inna the basement after an started making a couple of wood things to make them not shake. An he says that is only a "for now" thing cause he is goin to build a new one now that he has seen the problems. Hurray!

More Cold Fluffy Stuff!

LC: Oooh, it makes me all hissy! The Big Thing said it was gonna rain a little today, so I went out. I dont mind rain like Skeeter does. An I can always sit unner the Kitty Shelter when it does.

But the cold fluffy stuff started falling instead. Big clumps of it as big as my pom-pom toys! It doesn't hurt when it lands on we, but it sticks to my fur and melts wetter than rain an my pawsies get all cold steppin in it! I glared at him when I came back in an shook it all over the floor. He just laffed.

He did say he was only tellin me what he heard on the sparkly box. Spossed to be fluffy stuff further away and rain here. He should know better than to trust the sparkly box. It lies sometimes!

After we watched the fluffy stuff not become rain for a while, it covered effrything up. Then the sparkly box said it wouldnt get deep. It was wrong about that too! Stupid thing, if it is gonna say something, it oughtta know what it is saying or just not say!



Here is a piciature of the Kitty Shelter. The Big Thing put it up a long time ago. It is a big piece of wood like the bottom of our Kitty Condo an it just sits onna little table. It works pretty well. You can see that none of the cold fluffy stuff got unner it. I sit there in the rain too.

It seems to have stopped, but you never know. Anyway, I finally went back out and sat unner the Kitty Shelter to watch the birdies and smell the nice wet air.



It got kinda deep, too. Thats tummy-deep in the piciatures and it stuck to the trees a lot, too. I've seen it deeper tho. When I was a kitten, it used to pile up taller than my tail held up! But that doesnt seem to happen much anymore. The Big Thing says we shouldn't even complain about that cause when he was our age it got almost as tall as he was. We didnt unnerstand that until he splained that at our age he was a lot bigger.

I suppose that makes some sense. Even Little Big Things are bigger than we are. An he says it used to fall and fall and then stay there for 3 big moons! Maybe he is making a funny. I hope so, that would be horrible! And what if that happened again now?
