They have been playing on and off for the last hour. He seems mostly ok. He sneezes semi regularily like he needs to clear his breathing. That or he landed on his nose and his sinuses are bothering him.

Jim, tell J-L thank you. We will definitely be putting something up I just have the feeling it will need to be somewhat appealing.

DING! DING! DING! We have a winner! Seems like the best course of action to me.

Fabric is far too tempting for a kitty. It would encourage too much time in that dangerous area. They'd climb the fabric and scratch at it. Good idea, but in practice not so great.

Besides the solution is only temporary. In a few short months they'll have outgrown that "clumsy" stage and you won't need to worry about them anymore.

:begin rant:

I'm sorry if I am being rude here, but I cannot see how something as shallow as "appearances" are even a part of the discussion here when we consider the alternative: a crippled kitten at the bottom of the stairs.

:end rant:

Sorry Jay.

Well I'm glad business is picking up. I knew you were fairly sick for a while, what was that all about?

I'm in the middle of week 4 at my new job. I like my job, I like my boss. I miss Denver a lot though. Too much sometimes.

Jay I want to clarify - you weren't the focus of my rant. I'm on your side and just wish I could help Lynn see the light. A few months of some type of barrier isn't going to hurt anyone.

I got a bit of the flu, or food poisoning, not really sure. It was bad though. Then Claire got an ear infection, so more sleepless nights for me. I'm about better now, no rest for the wicked

I'm sure you miss CO pretty bad. It will always be there! Glad work is going well for you!
