Kitty Condos

Ok, so it is clear that I cannot escape my family for too long. I have officially become addicted to most things CAT. I am trying to keep it in check, but with the anticipation of Stella's arrival, things in the penthouse are changing.

I have spoken with Savory Man about the construction of a kitty condo because the ones out there are nice, but expensive. I'm not sure that it will really get constructed but it could. Otherwise, I'm on the hunt. In the meantime, I wanted to have something 'exciting' for both Milo and Stella to play in together. Mind you, Milo has taken great interest in what I call his 'subsidized housing'. He was sleeping in a shoe box but when I introduced him to this smaller box that my bathing suit had arrived in, he took a bigger liking to it. So here he is in his subsidized housing:

All stuffed right in there. Someone should tell him he's not the svelte kitten he used to be!

So anyhow, I go out and lay down $25 for a kitty condo for them. Savory Man puts it all together:

And like a child at Christmas, he wants nothing to do with it. Had we not put treats in the bottom he would have ignored it altogether. In his defense, when I did put him on it, it slipped a little and that scared him. He might be a little big for it. But of course, when Savory man took a steak knife to the cardboard box that's been sitting in the hallway for 2 weeks, Milo exalted in its amazingness:


So it goes. He remains ultra lovable in his subsidized housing during sleep time. I suppose he has moved up from subsidized housing to his own penthouse, but imagine he will still prefer his tiny quarters.
