    I have laminate, vinyl and tiles downstairs, so much easier to hoover thru and then mop with bleach (can't to that with carpet!) so much cleaner and always smells fresh which I am extremely paranoid about having 4 cats.

    I hate hoovering the stairs, and they always choose about half an hour after I've done it to have a mad fit and send fur flying all over again...

    Ive moved from a 2 storey house to a bungalow .. Best thing Ive ever done :j
    Some days I wake up Grumpy ... Other days I let him lie in.

    With now 3 cats and a semi log haired GS, despite vacuuming every day and moping every day..... I live in a kennel/cattery of the worst sort.

    Cat/dog hair everywhere, bedding covered in hairballs, hair in food, hair in bath.....

    Pls tell me it is not just me?

    Some places people wipe their shoes when they enter - at mine they have to wipe their shoes when they leave....

    sigh....


    Liar.

    I've been to your house - unless Zara has knocked something over in the last five minutes, it's bloody immaculate!
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Jojo is being either nice or sarcastic.....

    Seriously........ total diseaster - did not tidy up since Tuesday (Jo was here Wednesday morning-ish)...

    Baby cat jumps into massive litter trays but big cats (ncluding monster Teddy) decide they like the baby litter tray - result: litter absolutely EVERYWHERE

    Zara decides it is a good time to moult.. Caroline - you can imagine THAT, huh? At least a carrier bag of dog hais every single day.. and piling up

    Kid from upstairs decides it is fun to mix cat food into the litter trays... and then step into it and then walk all over....

    I am trying to keep Zara steady away from the baby kitten and have mu hands full with just that right now till he is at least 1kg (650 gram today :) as she loves him so much she wants to carry him around... yeah THAT way.. she is VERY gentle BUT she is 35kg and he is 650gram so got to have eyes at the back of my head...

    Sod the mess ;)

    Sorry - forgot to mention... got a complete fur blanket-not-really-blanket all over my bed and I mean all over inside out all over th bedding - did I mention all over?

    I do not have a tumble dryer, cant use those catcher thingys in the wash as they work in tumble dryer but not w/m

    Sigh....

    BUT - tonight I get to sleep with 3 guys (as the 4th one is in a cage) - who can beat THAT?

    ;)
