Perfect Timing

[Silk]

For two weeks the rug in our living room has been 'stored' so I could lay the new floor.

For two weeks, I have had the helping paws of my furry friends, 'Helping me' to lay the underlay and the flooring, paint the walls the ceiling the windows and move furniture.

For two weeks things could've been a lot worse. The new vacum is helping me win the 'fluff war' (if you havent already got a Dyson buy one!) and things in the flat are staring to look halfway reasonable again.
and due to the new grooming routine, even the summer hairballs seemed to be on the wane.

Last night I put the rug back down in the living room and cleaned it properly, and I was quite pleased with myself.

This morning I get up to find two hairballs and a vomit patch on the rug. Its almost as if they have been saving them up especialy.

Oh joy!

What is it that's SO attractive about a rug or carpet that cats can't resist being sick on them? Dracs will go outside, chew the grass and then come home to be sick on the carpet. Alexander used to do exactly the same thing although in his case he favoured the perfectly plain carpet in one of the bedrooms where it showed up to best advantage. No one has ever been sick in the one room in the house with a polished wood floor.

In the four months we've had Bailey and Ribbons (5 months for Bailey), we've yet to be blessed with a single litter accident or vomiting incident.....but we're not so naive to believe it'll never happen....
I just hope I see it before I step on it...barefooted....!!
