PRESENTING MISS FUZZY EARS!

I was petting Miss Marsha Mellow on her bathroom window sill this afternoon, and I couldn't help but notice how amazingly FUZZY her little earlets are getting! She's now about 4 weeks post-surgery and healing verrrrry nicely!  It looks like OPERATION PATIO TRANSFORMATION should be getting underway shortly. I contacted a local craftsman who makes custom-designed bird aviaries, and he's going to turn our small covered patio into our very own cattery for Miss Marsha, Emily-the-Escape-Artist, and anyone else brave enough to venture into the backyard!  He is supposed to call me back later today with a final bid, with work to start NEXT WEEK! (It's basically floor-to-ceiling redwood with special wire in three interlocking four-foot panels, plus a door to the backyard. There will also be an 8 foot long kitty resting shelf!)  I've already started sprucing up the grey stucco walls on the patio in preparation for putting the tall blue cat condo out there, and just bought cushions for a kitty bench that will replace the fountain that is moving to our larger patio! Once it's installed, I will get a 4' x 12' piece of outdoor carpet/fake grass from Lowe's to cover the grey concrete floor to protect cold little pussycat footsies. I also want to update the overhead light fixture with a more modern flush-mount one, and then we'll need to install a cat/dog door in the glass sliding glass door.
