Funny kitty. About the roof work: this summer we had our entire roof replaced, from the bottom (?) up, and it took about 10 long days, with lots of noise and even people in and out of the house plugging in tools, etc. I have two cats, one of whom is extremely skittish, and I was worried that she might go into hiding the entire time - but she got used to the ruckus after a couple of days and did fine. I hope Fister will, too.
