CHAO'S IN THE HOUSE - PART ONE

Chao's is defined as a state of extreme confusion and disorder - this has been our home since last Thursday. Somehow our kitchen floor got water damage from the inside out and the outside in.

My human says the water damage happened a long time before we moved in, but it finally reached it's peak of rottinness and it resulted in a very soft and slopped floor that had to be replaced.

We had to move the table, chairs, storage bins, rug and other stuff to the living room. Gunnie and I love the kitchen stuff in the living room because it gives us more to climb and jump on-but the human hates it! The next thing relocated was our food and water to the back office. This was ok for the first couple of hours, but really who wants to eat in the back office instead of the kitchen? 

Our "super nice to kitty's" Maintenance Man Tim came to fix our floor on Thursday afternoon and the result has been chaos ever since. First he had to cut through the floor to see what was going on with a very loud saw that made me hide in the back office. The saw covered everything in the kitchen with a thick red dust (my human is not happy) and opened a hole in the floor. His first words were "oh wow, this is bad"!


Then he proceeded to make the hole bigger which made more loud sounds, more red dust, more human unhappiness. When our human got home from her errands she found the much bigger hole and eight kitty feet covered in red dust. Maintenance Man Tim apologized for the red dusted kitty feet, but told her that we walked right up and did a visual inspection of the really big hole to make sure he was doing a good job.

He then told my human, "this is going to take a couple of days to fix" and we have to replace the whole floor. My human just sighed and shook her head with a worried look on her face.


Worried, because on top of the noise, the red dust and the really big hole in the floor, she was heading out of town for the weekend and was concerned about what would happen "to her girls" and the really big hole in the floor while she was gone.

Maintenance Man Tim assured her that he would put down a nice big piece of wood over the really big hole to make sure that we would not fall in and hurt ourselves while she was gone.

So our human put her trust and faith in MM Tim covering the floor and gave us a big speech about being good, staying out of the kitchen, not jumping on the kitchen stuff in the living room and leaving MM Tim alone while he was working. Yeah right, who does she think we are, angel kittys?????

The human gave each of us a hug and a kiss and headed out the door for the weekend - leaving us all alone in the chaos........

To be continued.....
