Shabby Chic- Decorating Tips

We were planning on showing you some of our very own paw work today, but we got sidetracked by big happenings at our place over the weekend.  I think dad and mom heard about Shabby Chic Day, sponsored by our dear friend Alfie Marshall and didn't want us kitties to upstage them.  Silly humans.

We got suspicious when dad brought out the tools. 

Being the mom, that means it's my job to snoopervise the indoor activities.  Jonesie's got dad covered in the yard, but indoors it's up to me.

This can't be good.

Cory stood back and offered her guidance.

What the?  The floor tile is gone and so is the toilet!!  I sure hope that mom and dad don't  plan on using our litter box.  That would be too weird!  I'm a bit uneasy because I did see mom bring in some extra bags of litter after shopping...

Whoa...the walls are gone too.  This is taking shabby a bit too far!

The bathroom isn't the only redecorating happening around here.  Mom and our good pals from Zoolatry worked to redecorate our blog.  We think it's beautiful.

Too bad that Ann, Maggy and Zoey can't help us with our bathroom.

I know, my belly is adorable.  That's why I'm always exposing it.  I never sleep belly side down. 

  It's been another drama filled week at Casa de Cory.  Grete has been in a funk because her shoulder was not healing like expected.  Mom and dad let her go back to full tilt running at the dog park too soon. Now Grete is on restricted leash walking only for limited minutes of time.  Grete is bummed.   She wants to play through the pain.   She has been regularly throwing herself to the floor and harumphing loudly.  I thought I was the drama queen?

And Nigel has been singing and dancing all week about his Gotcha Day tomorrow. Doesn't he know we ALL have one?  He's acting like he's special or something...I suppose I'd be special if I didn't have to share my day with Bennette.

We are all nosy about what is going on in our bathroom.   Inquring cats DO want to know.  Nigel wants to know.

Cory wants to know.

And I want to know.

There's just been too much going on around here for my liking.  Mom and dad have been way to busy with work and other humans they call family.  I thought I was all the family they needed?  So if all that wasn't enough, they are looking to take even more time away from me.   They are looking at re-doing the bathroom.  It looked fine to me.  But now the toilet is out of there and I've lost my easy way up to the sink.  Jumping from the floor to the counter is just way too much of a bother.  I want my porcelain step ladder back.

So to add insult to injury...my mom asked me to check out her samples.  Does she think I'm the next big thing in interior design? The "Jonesie" of the interior?  Do you think she could have been considerate and brought me tiles and paint chips in nice rust/brown/caramel...dare I say it ginger tones?

No!  These colors do not go with my fur...do not match my eyes.  I'm calling the ASPCA.  Who in their right mind would like these colors?

Aren't these samples purrfect?
