The Table is gone

 "Lynn, sunshine and my window seat!"





This set up is one of many sets of stairs that
were built in the early 90's for Peepers. That sweet
girl lost her hind leg to a second round of cancer
in 1992. But she never stopped climbing with her
stairs all in place.


In 1993, Seney came to live with us as a tiny kitten.
For the next 15 months, she followed Peepers every
where, including up and down all the stairs. So Seney
was accustomed to them the rest of her 20 year life.
Seney grew to be a very tall but skinny Maine Coon and
she did very little jumping because she had learned to
climb instead up and down.



When she died, we left a few in place for plant shelves,
and then Precious came in for a permanent stay a month
later. And to her, the stairs are just furniture to be used
as an ends to a means.

"I really don't miss the long table now that I'm back in
the sun here."

I'm glad, Precious, as the table spent too many months
in the living room, with the bags, and the box, and the
toys, and the...........................

Thank you for stopping in for a visit and a comment.
It is appreciated.

Well it sure sounds like your place is better suited for outdoor viewing than mine. Oh sure, dad made me a step to get up onto his chair, but I think it's high time he got his butt moving and built me some other things. Looks like you've got an awesome view there, dear Precious. Have a great weekend!

Geez, those stairs look perfect there, not just in terms of size and placement, but aesthetically. Stairs are an excellent piece of furniture for a cat household - even for kittens like Seney was.
