A little update on Mr Hissy’s house. I picked up some carpet remnant, trimmed it down to size and it fits a treat. Now I just need to work how to get the sofa and bookcase in there!
Since Mr H isn’t a fan of cat flaps, I have used string to hold it open. With a bit of luck his curiosity should lead him inside. If not, then treats are on standby!
Actually that remnant proved quite a bargain. For £10 I got a fitted carpet for Mr H, an eight foot rug for the front room and finally a smaller rug for the bedroom.
My carpet trimming skills are not that great, but a bargain trumps the aesthetic of a perfectly straight edge!

@Ronrybs I wish our cat liked to come inside and sit in my lap, but she won't even let us pet her outside. The times I have let her come in, she just runs to our grandson's bedroom and hides under the bed. And I'm afraid she'll pee under there! We've had her since she was a kitten, so we know she's never been mistreated.

@1creekgirl Cats are funny beasties. Gaia used to like sitting in my lap and getting some attention, but nowdays she likes to curl up next to me.

The carpet I understand... Why does Mr. Hissy need a couch and bookcase?

I also had to buil a special house for my dog. The ones they sold were expensive and very ugly. Luna has her own palace now.

@Ronrybs I just gathered some old rests of wood and other things and gave them to my best friend´s son. He was working to go to Australia and accepted any job. He was intelligent and handy so he made a lot of things with little materials.

My cat went inside after I changed the blanket that I had put inside. There was a white one before, I placed one gray and added a curtain on the door, that only close the door partially. I suppose cats do not like the feeling of a door closing behind them.

@Ronrybs I always take price into consideration too when making a purchase.
