Thanks Cleo and Becky!



Cleo and Becky finished making up cat mats from the material left over from our working weekend. We now have about 14.

I also picked up a braided dog toy at a local pet food store and went "huh, I could makes these." So I did. And so can you! Click the photo for a larger image.



Just buy some neat fleece the next time you see it on sale, cut it in 1.5 inch strips, knot three strips at one end, braid it a bit, then knot the other end. Instant cat toy, and two yards (two different colors, one yard each) will make you a load of cat toys for the holidays!

Go for it! We are. With no sewing required!

I bought two more gallons of paint. One is a lighter shade of the Creamsicle, for the long wall in the cat cage room.

The other is....Petfinder Lavender! For the cat room. Actually, it's way lighter than that, but because the carpet is purple, it seemed like a good choice.

And BTW volunteers, that new nasty smell in the cat room isn't the cats. It's that huge plastic towel bin off-gassing. That's what I get for purchasing things on the cheap. So that may get moved downstairs.
