Disturbed Cats

Crash and Burn are going through a very difficult period.

It has been almost two weeks since the furniture was picked up to be reupholstered. Two very long weeks without a couch to sit on. They are so used to sitting on either side of me when we watch TV. Now, there's no place for them. I sit in my desk chair. Crash is so desperate to be close to me that she lets me pick her up and hold her. Burnie just wanders aimlessly around the house meowing and trying to find his sofa.

They are so disturbed that they aren't getting along. Burnie just wants to play and Crash just wants to growl and hiss. As soon as I go into the kitchen, even if I've just fed them, they want more food. I guess they are a lot like me - eating while stressed.

I think it's going to get worse. I hope to put the tree and all my decorations up this week. I just hope they don't decide to climb the tree.

I really feel sorry for them, but there's nothing I can do. They just don't understand. I hope for their sake the furniture comes back soon.

Maybe it would help them if you threw a couple of big piles of blankets on the the floor for them. I know mine would take to it immediately.
