Regularly scheduled maintenance


It would be nice if you could fix things up, and have them stay looking nice for a year or so. That just isn't true with a cat facility with cat rooms. Things constantly need to be repaired or replaced, from cat toys to flooring. I've been noticing that the cat posts have needed a refurbishment for the past few weeks. Today I realized they had clawed one post right down to the warp and woof on the carpet backing, so at 9:30 pm last night I headed out with the screwgun, carpet knife, and extra carpet to fix things up. Tiger Tom thought the extra attention was quite cool, and of course needed to be in the middle of things.

We can always use remnents of brand-new carpeting to re-cover scratching posts. We prefer thick, non-loop non-Berber carpet. It does need to be new (or nearly new, as when you move into a new house and remove the new carpeting the previous owners had just put down) and pieces must be at least 4' long and 18" wide. We will gladly pick these up within a 40 mile radius of Spencer NY.
