Today was the day of the workmen, and I’m a prisoner in my own home. Mommy had people working underneath the house to put in new insulation.
She kept us inside, because she thought it wouldn’t be safe with them here. They took out the old insulation to put in new. There are also so many fires in Oregon that it was very, very smoky and hard to breathe. Also, not safe for kitties. So we were stuck, and very bummed. I slept on the bed or under the bed most of the time. My bruver, Raja, hid.

See how yucky the sun was. And there was lots of smoke, too.

Mommy put us in the big bedroom with our food and a litter box and a big bed to sleep on.

Raja hid in the closet most of the time except when Mommy came in to play with us, which she did frequently.
Mommy says we need to stay in the bedroom again tomorrow. I don’t like that. At least she let us out into the rest of the house tonight. I is sitting on the couch wif Mommy.
I is very thankful that we have a Mommy who takes good care of us, even though we don’t like staying inside. And I iz thankful it is not supposed to be so smoky tomorrow.
Thinking of all the people who are in harms way from hurricanes and fires and those recovering from Harvey.
Day of Workmen should be celebrated that no one is working and snuggling with you cats instead!

We hate it when workmen come round. It’s also horrible when strangers come to view the house with the estate agent because we’re trying to sell our property right now.
Stressful for the human, but even more stressful for the kitty!

Raja & Zoe, your momma is good to keep you indoors, ’cause you don’t want to breathe in all that nasty smoke or get stepped on by the work crew. It has been super smokey here, too, I’m afraid. Mom has kept us in the bedroom & den the last couple of days where the air is clean. I sure hope that humans are being cautious & keeping an eye on the weather & the air quality for not just themselves, but also for their furry companions.

It is hard with this yukky smoke. Today is better, but still here. Workmen may be gone tomorrow, and also clearer. Mommy promises that when this happens we can go out again.

Sorry about your confinement. But it’s just temporary, and I have a pretty good suspicion that your mom will more than make it up to you. 😉 Happy (if somewhat confined and smokey) Wordless Wednesday!

The news is so hard to watch these days with the fires and the hurricanes. We live in So. Cal so are used to the horrible fires. We’ve had many times as well where we had to hid inside because of all the smoke. Take care and hope you get some rain soon!

We do too, but rain doesn’t look likely. Smoke is better, though. I remember the So Cal fires. I used to live in the Valley.
