Gracie here: New chairs! First to hurl a hairball is the winner.
The dining chairs the peep ordered seven months ago finally came. They are virgin chairs. No one has barfed on them yet.
They are stored in an upstairs bedroom until the kitchen is done. All of us spent considerable time smelling them. There were interesting smells. The delivery man may have a dog.Β Or maybe he stepped in dog poop. Hard to say. It wasn’t long before the chairs looked like this.And this!
The peep covered them with towels. We have a contest to see who barfs first. It’s usually me but Morgan and Gus were giving it a try. Sasha has been smelling but so far no nap. They will remain shrouded until they make their public debut around the new table. The peep wants them clean at least for the first day. No worry though. One of us will toss a hairball. It’s just a matter of time! Place your bets!
PS: It would have been awesome if they came in boxes! Just sayin’
I think those towels look plenty comfy! And nice chairs!!

Yes and they love stretching across two of them. I saw Sasha stretched out sleeping yesterday but it was dark and I couldn’t get a good picture. I had to buy the chairs from a catalog. None on the sales floor. I hate buying like that but I really like them.

Gracie: I may be the hurler. I’m a champion at it. It’s Sasha or me most likely but you never know when those dark horses pass us and win the race.

They’re beautiful and most lovely! Wow, can’t believe it took seven months for them to arrive!! Nice to see they’ve received the cat resident seal of approval. Aren’t towels wonderful implements in a house of pets?

Towels are a necessity! Protects, covers up and cleans up. What else can multi-task like that. Also good in place of cat bed in carrier for the old ones that pee when they get nervous. Our table took 4 months and a desk chair is coming next week. That only took 2 months. It was worth it though and we can’t use it now until the kitchen is done.

Our three-cat house has endless towels dedicated to their entertainment and cleanup afterwards. Very few towels in our house are decent enough for people use anymore, actually–

I have a pile of old worn ones. They are “Jake’s pee” towels. He’s been gone since 2015. When he was old he would often prefer to pee on a towel next to the litter box so I kept a crumpled up one there. We still use them for dirty jobs but even the cats have better towels.

I hope y’all wait until the kitchen is done and the chairs have been around the table for at least a day.

Beautiful chairs. Worth the wait, but with no boxes… a bit of a disappointment to some of your family members. I can understand that.

When they called to schedule, he said he’d take them out of the boxes. I thought they may do that in the driveway but they must have done it at the warehouse.

A short subliminal message for the furry felines:
Cats! Yes, I am speaking to the FOUR of you. Do NOT, I repeat, do NOT barf on the new chairs until AFTER they are initiated at the table.
We now return to our regularly scheduled program . . .
