Sometimes I can’t help but share funny cat things.
.

.
And while that made me smile, this next one might actually help Mark whose cats have taken a sudden dislike of each other.

Odd, but I figure it’s worth a try.
The next photo belongs to a friend who has horses. She got a few goats as stablemates and then a few mini trampolines because goats like to jump.

Seems they also like to lay in the sun on individual bouncy beds.

I do remember that. And curse myself for getting rid of the almond Montgomery Ward refrigerator that dominated our kitchen when we moved in. There was nothing wrong with that vintage fridge, I just wanted something newer and prettier.
It’s been over twenty years now and we’ve had to buy an expensive new replacement every 5 years.
Somewhere in Maine… that ugly Montgomery Ward is laughing. And probably still running like a fine Swiss watch.

Another one for Mark because summer is right around the corner.

Totally with you on appliances. They ain’t what they used to be.

And it’s so expensive to repair them now, you might as well buy new.

Yes. But pretty disappointed with our new Samsung dishwasher. And our Samsung washer prematurely rusted.

I almost bought a Samsung refrigerator last time but after reading the reviews, didn’t.
For tv’s they’re great. Anything else? No.

omg I gotta share the vanilla extract one with my coworker who is considering rehoming his cat who is not getting along with his older cats, I wonder if he has tried that hack.

We turned our old Whirlpool fridge into a garage fridge when we moved houses. But it did guzzle electricity. I wish we’d kept it until we got solar, though.

We bought a smaller beer fridge when we built our bar/man cave and of course that one runs great.

I love the black cats on our walks that think Razz, the black pug, is related to them.

I had a black cat for 17 years who mastered all those poses.

The goat picture is priceless but that kitchen? My mom had one that looked just like that right down to the floor covering!

Kitchens of the 70’s were so horrible. We had olive green cabinets.

Very interesting about the vanilla-scented cats. 🤪
Lazy ass goats! HAHA!
Five years seems really short for a refrigerator; what exactly are you doing way up there? 😉

I don’t know, but three of those times it was the freezer side that died. Maybe we like ice too much?

Bake them some cookies, and try the vanilla.

I honestly would, but Skittle now freaks out simply seeing Darth (or really any black cat) in another room – I need visual vanilla!!

Rehoming is certainly a good option

Don’t get me started on appliances. It’s all junk designed to fail now. And the fanciest stuff has ads!
We’re going to get the cheapest, no frills replacements for all of ours as they’re needed. Less to break, cheaper to fix, and if we’re going to have to replace it in five years anyway, well, let’s save some money.

If two previously happy house cats start fighting, best to speak to a certified animal behaviourist. Introducing a third scent could have disastrous consequences

We had two cats that hated each other years ago. No small amount of vanilla could be worse than the fights and trips to the vets to fix the damage.

I would totally try the vanilla extract trick, but it’s no longer about scent; they both hang out in each others’ spaces separately. It’s more a sight thing. Maybe the answer is a pair of super dark shades?
I would also totally try the watermelon punch, because: rum. A few sips and I probably wouldn’t even care!

I might try the vanilla anyway. I mean really, it couldn’t hurt.
Unless you don’t have cookies available when the craving hits. …
