Pets travelling options--Which would be best?
Comments (11)Definitely leave kitty at home. if at all possible. If not, start visiting kennels where you can leave her for the time you are gone. You said your kitty doesn't like car rides... I have known cats that do travel well, but they have always been ones that are fond of being in the car. If yours is not, she will be miserable on the car ride down, and probably downright terrified of a plane trip. (That's assuming you would be allowed to have her as a carry-on-- she would probably need to travel in an approved container in the cargo hold. Think about other passengers with allergies, a potentially terrified and yowling cat smelling up the plane with litter odors... I can almost promise that your kitty would not be allowed as a carry-on.) Staying at home would be the best option, but if you can't find a pet sitter or reliable neighbor to check on her regularly, then at least at a kennel, she will have a stable environment for the time that you're gone. The down side of a kennel, though, is risk of infection... We kenneled our two cats a few years ago, at a place that came with multiple references, was very clean, required all vaccination certificates, etc. When we brought our cats home, one was fine, but the other came down with a raging respiratory infection a few days later. (She's fine now, but it required a vet trip and some antibiotics to clear up.) If she goes down with you, there's WAY too much of a risk that she will freak out and escape, as a previous poster mentioned. Please please PLEASE leave kitty at home!!!...See MoreWhich island countertop would you choose? (lots of pictures)
Comments (32)I am so grateful to all of you for trying to help me with this decision. Kmcg - your have it right -- I like the butcherblock but I am not sure how it will look. Those are beautiful kitchens you posted - in my next life I will have all white cabinets and butcherblock - no cherry island! Likkiirish - I have spent so many hours looking at the finished kitchen blog that that I think I could be certified crazy! In all my searching there and elsewhere on the internet I have found only one photo close what I am thinking about - which is below. It is not my favorite photo and, even in this photo, the island is black, not cherry, which would visually connect with the black countertops. I am thinking that I probably need to let go of the butcherblock idea and go with the black tops everywhere. I feel pretty certain now that that the black top on the island will look good. Here is a link that might be useful:...See MoreBuilder or buyer owning lot during construction, which is best?
Comments (6)I guess they want to close out lots in the subdivision by October 1st; we're not close to final plans with the builder but he is willing to purchase lot and roll cost into his quote (which we don't have yet due to our pending upgrades.) We want to keep cost reasonable as it's a second home. Also plans must go through developer ACC review before we know if the plan will work. Hopefully it will as it's a mirror of the model home....See Morewhich induction range is best for someone who cooks a lot
Comments (6)Appliances Forum - I went a 36" Gagg induction - I cook a lot and I love the hob layout and the knob control. The knob is easy to keep clean and I feel easier to manipulate when I have several pots on the stove. Look to see if there is timer/ shut off feature for which ever induction you choose - that is an awesome feature - you can set it and walk away and not worry about spillovers....See Morechisue
