Oh, No!

William and I went for a lovely walk yesterday evening. It was a cool, clean evening--perfect for walking! We went by the housing complex where our new favorite couple live. So naturally, we stopped by and visited for awhile. We walked back later that evening, thinking how well spent it was. When we got inside we noticed that our sliding glass door wasn't locked and of course we both claim that we ALWAYS lock it. It's happened before, but William, like a good protecting husband, is cautious & checks the house.

As he roamed, "Oh, No!!" comes from up stairs. "What, honey?!" I answered, slightly panicked. "Kitty Witty was up in our room!" Now, William is severely allergic to Kitty's hair. Since we've been married, William put in a spring-hinge so our master bedroom always stays shut... with a forgetful wife, an allergic husband must go to great measures. He gets very upset (and itchy) whenever the cat is on our bed. Kitty has not liked this x-communication plan from the beginning and will, on occasion, whine & cry during the night to express her displeasure. Well, apparently, last night she got FULL vengeance. While we were gone, Kitty Witty peed on our bed. A big, wide, wet puddle was gifted to us while we were on our lovely walk. It soaked all the way through to the mattress. So, all our bedding went straight to our washing machine & we poured a special mixture of Simple Green, Lysol & Febreeze on our mattress. We camped out last night in our guest room. We're still waiting for everything to get clean and return to our bedroom. Lesson learned, forgetful wife. No more propping the door open when I clean house.

OH NO!!!!!! thats a ticked off cat for you!

last semester, when i was in school, lena wasnt getting much attention, and my irritation always seemed to come when she would bug me while studying. i would kindly knock her off me and continue reading...

low and behold one day when coming home from work i see that she has peed ALL over each and every one of the books i left on the floor.

cats are so moody!!

i hope you're able to get the smell out of everything!!

and ditto on the favorite couple thing. you guys are our new fav couple. ;)

I can't believe that! I had no idea cats did this kind of thing. That would make study so much more difficult & less motivating...that's for sure :) Wonder if that excuse should be used, instead of the classic blame the dog story. Hee hee

Ugh! Having two indoor cats, we've had this happen too. I hope the smell comes out!
