I'll try to make this as clear and concise as possible.
I live in a concrete highrise - 18 floors total and I'm on the 14th floor. Starting in November there is going to be some major renos happening. All the pipes have to be replaced. This means that for 15 days, workmen will be in my apartment ripping down walls, replacing pipes and putting everything back together again.
In a nutshell, Max and Speckles are going to FREAK OUT BIG TIME!!

A few weeks ago there was a meeting with the Piping company and I asked one of them if I could put my kitties in one room while they worked on the rest of the apt then switch then the time was right. I was told NO, that they need access to the whole suite for the whole 15 days. I have NO spare room to put them in at all.

I can't let Max and Speckles run free so was thinking about getting a huge dog crate to put them in....but wait....they don't get along and there would be bloodshed at the end of the day. Two crates? Maybe. Stress and upsets reek havoc on M & S; when I moved Max got sick with a UTI.

Please, I'm really stressed about this. Any other suggestions from those who have done major renos? Thanks.
