it’s only been two days!

Filed under: Pets — Shauna @ 7:40 am

Jason and I just cleaned the house a few days ago. And yet the pets are finding ways to either get dirty or point out my sloppy housekeeping.

Shorty crawled under our bed for no reason other than to collect all the dust bunnies in his paws to distribute evenly throughout the house where they could be spotlighted by the sunlight.

Sunny went bug hunting in our unvacuumed sliding door track, developed half of a cartoon villian mustache, and then got visibly upset when we kept laughing at her.

And Abby made sure to keep changing positions on the couch so that she could cover every cushion with fur.

It’s a losing battle, people.

  1. Yes, getting a pet means never having a truly clean house again. That’s OK with me, though. We keep up with it as much as possible and don’t worry about the rest.

  2. Oh my, they’re so helpful, aren’t they?

    Yep, it’s a losing battle. Kids are the same way.

  3. OH I KNOW. my bathroom especially is.. um.. not appetizing. oliver has a particular affinity for that room and does a lot of adorable rubbing up on people when they’re at the sink, so he gets a lot of petting, which = extra hair shedding in that room. so it floats attractively across the tile floor and collects in the corners.

  4. Oh, Sunny. I want to scoop you up and carry you around and hug you to pieces.

  5. Sing it, sister. I swept two or three days ago and the house already looks like it was crop dusted with short black Indy hairs. I have no idea how I’m going to keep it suitably clean once the baby is mobile, unless I dress him in onesies made of Swiffer cloths.

  6. Abby’s so cute! And UGH, I know! Every time I scrub down the kitchen counters Luna goes straight to the litter box, accumulates an ungodly amount of litter in her paws, and then the SECOND I am not looking prances all over the counter leaving gross litter trails. Of course by the time I notice and start yelling, she is comfortably sunning herself on the sofa. Bitch.

  7. Oh, I know, cat hair has its own laws, and it does get everywhere!
