PIXIE : First of all, the most impawtant : our humans didn’t need to use our litter box, they could keep theirs till this morning. It will be replaced after an interruption of three hours, thus no concern !
BIM BIM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BOOM ZZZEEEEEEE RRRRRRRRRRR ZZZEEEEEEE -…-
… and that begins again : here is the sound atmosphere of Wednesday, Thursday, and today. At every BOOM, all the house trembled. Zorro bravely curled up in the garden, but me, I was so afraid that I stayed with Claire in the nail studio. Claire explained me that the workers removed first the old bathtub made of cast iron ; it was so heavy that they owed to grind to make several fragments to be able to transport it ! Then, they drilled holes in walls and ground for the passage of the new pipes. Today, they install the new bathtub and all the new pipes. Next week, Momo is going to take charge of walls and ground, the stone floor is going to be put, then the workers will come back to install the new washbasin, the faucets, and the new toilet.
Claire and Momo are very delighted of this new bathroom. Me, I don’t like being locked into a single room (even if I can reach the garden), I don’t like the noise, and I don’t like that foreigners walk in my house !
I can’t wait that it’s finished !
We don’t like it when people come interfering in our home either Pixie. Mum had decorators in last year and they kept getting their paint on our furs – the cheek of it! We hope you get a more peaceful weekend and can catch up on your sleep.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
I know kitties hate a change in routine. I think your parents should make it up to you with new toys and lots of treats.
Looks like you’ve got a LOT of supervisory work on your paws. MOUSES!
Good news ’bout the litterbox.
Purrs,

Oh Pixie this is a real upsetting time. The Dad had work done last year and we lived in his office for a week. We thought it was awful but it was quiet so maybe not that bad after all

It was very noisy when I first came here and the workers were setting up the new wall outside – but at least they weren’t IN my house! How unpleasant for you, Pixie! It will be done soon, though, and you’ll get some peace.
I don’t like noise or strangers either. I hope the work doesn’t take too long so you can have the freedom of the house again.
We *dread* this at our home. A new tub was delivered to our garage a few months ago, and we keep telling the humans it’s totally okay for them to keep putting off the remodel of the bathroom, because we HATE loud scary noises – and STRANGERS, too! *shudder*
We’re getting the garage door replaced here, so we’ve got noise too.
We remember when worker guys came into our house and started pounded and tearing stuff up. It was horrible! We hope your bathroom gets done very quickly!!
We had our carpets cleaned a few months ago and I’m pretty sure we’re scarred for life.
; ) heh. heh
That’s a VERY nice space your mom has there!
We totally agree with you!
We would not like noisy strangers in our place either.
Hope it will be done soon.

Oh you poor kitties. Noise and strangers are the worst! I hope it doesn’t take too long to get your new bathroom.
No distance is too great when there are workers in the house! We usually flee out to the Catio.
pee ess: we’re “relieved” to read that your litterboxes will remain YOURS, MOL!
Oh my, I know what you mean…I hate change….even if it is for the better. Hopefully, they will be finished soon

Wounds as though you will be glad its over, maybe the new place will be worth it?
