The litter tray

Cat hindering fence painting!

So, this morning I'm painting the fence and unbeknown to me our cat was outside. She decides it would be really good to walk along just painted fence and sit on top of the highest post. I got her down and have had to run water in the bottom of the bath to clean her paws. I have been spectacularly growled at by our usually quite old girl. Luckily she's gentle so no war wounds.
The bath now looks like a hairy bloke has been scrubbing his fake tan off.

That'll learn you. Grin

Never do anything DIYish until you've worked out where the cats are. Wink

We need to paint the front outside window sill but haven't got around to it yet as it's one of Harry's favourite places! We learnt our lesson about painting when we had to cut white gloss paint out of his tail...

Shut him inside with a tray and say 'Business' or something. (I use 'Workmen' to Seniorboy to indicate disruption - although all he really wants to know is that the closed door doesn't mean The Lodger is around! Grin)

We're friends again. Cheeky cat must have sneaked out the window while I was talking to our upstairs neighbour. She was fast asleep on the bed when I last saw her.
Oh well no harm done which is the main thing!
