Day three was noisy but relative smooth sailing.
.
.
Excess wood… that served no purpose other than to act as useless shims… was removed, and everything was repositioned, leveled and put back where it should be.
.
.
Extra heavy duty hangers were installed on both sides…
.
.
And all the rafters were secured to the beam as they should have been 30 years ago.
When the contractor left for the day?
.
.
His Lordship was on the move.
.

He thinks we put up the plastic room just for him.

River's world..... 
The husband insisted that we not adopt any cats until after our porch to mudroom conversion/sunroom addition was completed. I’m so glad he did – we hard a hard enough time keeping the bun out of the construction zone. Lord Dudley, though, doesn’t seem like he’s getting into too much trouble there. What a good kitty.

He likes to play with the plastic walls, pulling at corners and scratching the sides. I’m afraid it’s all going to come crashing down some night while we’re asleep…

Is that safe for him to be near fiberglass ?

Thankfully he doesn’t play with it. Just likes to hide behind it…

Well I’m glad that things seem to be moving along as planned. I’m glad that the guy doing all the work is doing a great job. And it does look a lot better than the picture you posted of when he took off that section and all those nails just there with plywood pieces. His Lordship is only wondering when his precious abode will be back to normal, lol.

Cats think everything revolves around them. ‘Tis the way of the cat.

Cats “know,” not just think… Our Smoky knew he was royalty — he told us so from the minute Gail first picked him up. Me, I was his whipping boy. Lord Dudley knows he is special. And he wouldn’t have it any other way.

To be honest, neither would I.

I suspect Lord Dudley, like most cats, is too “cool” to show arrogance, he just “is.” Smoky had to broadcast it. Yet, it took him 3 years to learn to answer only to his name. Any time we called a cat, no matter which one, Smoky was slways the first one there, just in case it was something good to eat.

I went back to catch up on the project. I think he’s doing a good job. The hangers alone are a huge improvement.

He’s very precise and careful when he works. He’s slow… but perfection takes time.

Of course, His Lordship thinks you put up the plastic room just for him.
He’s a cat — he’s en-titled!
