Today started out slowly. I spent the morning lying in the sun puddles in my room. Mum and dad spent the morning cleaning. I tried to play with Denali through the door, but really I just want to get a chance to get through the door. I keep lying in wait for when mum or dad opens the door to go into her room, but thats another story.
At lunch time mum and dad went to bunnings to get a new drill. They brought back a really good one. It drills through the hard wood really quickly. This means that dad could get back to work on my cat tower... finally some decent progress. First dad drilled holes in the wood and then screwed bits of wood together. Next they found some carpet off cuts to put on the base. Then dad used a grass mat to wrap around one pole. The grass tastes yummy and feels really good to claw. The next step was wrapping rope around one of the other poles, but dad ran out of rope half way through.
Next they decided, to create a comfy pillow top for the first platform. Mum found an old pillow, and a pet blanket in storage. They nailed it to the platform.
Then they did the best bit yet. They made a kitty nest! Mum used a hanging basket and they attached it to the tall post at a few points to make it stable. It is the most comfy place to sit in the house yet... it's even better than the hammock.
The tower apparently isn't finished yet. I can't wait to see what they do next. I think it's time for me to get back in the nest and have a nap. I hope you have a great Sunday.

OH my C - you have super staff sweetie. Dat is going to be just the purrfect cat tower.
ReplyDeleteGizmo, that is a FABULOUS cat tree! We love the nest...we have instructed our Mommy to look for nesting baskets for us, pronto!
ReplyDeleteYoW! What a cool cat tree, Gizmo! You are so lucky to have crafty and creative pawrents - the nesting basket is such a great idea; we'll see if our mom can't figure something like that out for us. We can't wait to see what's next for your tree either!

Your pawrents are great! That's gonna be a PAWSOME cat tower! Mom got my old thing from the pet store. B-O-R-I-N-G.
ReplyDeleteGizmo, that looks like a great cat tree just as it is. Lots of places to sleep, stratch, and stretch. What more could you want?
ReplyDeleteJust tell your beans to drag it into the house and let you at it.
That is a neat looking tree, Gizmo. You have a very nice (and handy) dad. That looks so comfy.
ReplyDeleteGizmo, we just dropped by to see how you and Denali are doing. We hope you are both ok and having lots of good fun together now

Your new cat tree looks awesome. The cat nest looks oh-so-comfy.
ReplyDeleteJust checking in. Purrrrrrring that Gizmo, Ddenali, and the beans are all still doing well.
ReplyDeleteOh Dog! That is so cool! What did they do to treat that log? Anything? I wish Jen was so talented.
