    Looking at Pichi now and remembering that scared wild thing warms my heart. Especially in that cat sandwich on the couch. I wish mine were like that, they're the same age and the closest we can get them to sleep together is about ten centimeters away from each other. And I would definitely find a way to screw the cat tree to the wall because that top box feels wobbly and at high-speed bird hunting it might fall over. My bedroom window is by a huge tree where the birds' nest and from spring to fall it's my cats favourite spot and if the windows are open and a bird lands on the windowsill... yeah, there have been some missed jumps and thrown down stuff on the way to a bird.

    We bought a cat tower specifically for a maine coon for this exact reason XD We don't have maine coons, but our biggest cat Dave is a big tabby (note - Not fat, big. I use this word on purpose) and with our old cat tree he would look so left out, because anytime he tried to climb it it would either lean or fall down.

Your cats are big, big boys and it would be terrible if, in the event of an episode of zoomies, the tree fell over. Hitting the glass window, hitting the floor, heck hitting one of the cats. It seems very dangerous as is.

    As a cat-mom who sews and is friends with other cat-moms who sew... we have come up with a 'cat-logic' explanation for why cats simply Must take up residence on any fabric, paper, (or anything else really) that you are working on. Cats in their omniscient wisdom, can tell when and where there are random spots of antigravity. Cats being immune to this phenomena help their humans, by holding things down to keep them from floating away... also, as it's cat-logic humans will never truly understand it, but just accepting it makes life with fuzzy little people easier. (more fun too).

    I usually don't comment on your videos, just bask in your cats but I love the cat tree! (that is an insane amount of staples though!) As someone who is more familiar with different kinds of fabrics: what you described is exactly the problem! Little hairs in different directions move your low and upper half of the fabric. We have a lot of tricks for this: Pfaff has upper and lower transport on their sewing machines so this won't happen. This might be a bit much for you though because it is expensive! What you want is seam tape: it anchors the lower and upper hairs of the fabric. To glue the fabric down on the base use contact glue spray for furniture. That is my technical talk....but lets be honest I am here for the cats ( and I cannot wait for a tour of your new home!)

    awe, it's so nice to see Pichi being so relaxed with you, and she used to such a tiny terrified bby ...
    and it does seem to be just universal for cats to try to mess up the fabric you just laid out flat. I only have one cat, but he sure does try to make up for his nonexistent siblings not being there to help him. I have many pictures of him being an adorable nuisance, and have had many mini-panics from him trying to pull out pins, because he's certain they'd make great toys. As would the fabric scissors, obviously

    I love watching Pichi getting more comfortable and happy with each video she's in. it's great seeing her be able to sleep so soundly and deeply while cuddling with the boys. and she feels so safe that she doesn't wake up when Jun pets. what great progess she's making from a scared little street cat to a happy pet.

    I'm glad you refinished it! It was nice of your friends to give it to you instead of throwing it away. They should have cleaned their cat's hair off of it though. Yours' looked apprehensive about approaching it. It turned out great!!

    Love the editing on this video 😂 my favourite is Rachel's "I like to do detailed things" speech interjected by clips of her complaining about the staples the night before. And Pichi's curious paw batting the box being synced up with the music

    Not sure if anyone else shared, but there are different sewing machine needles for different types of fabric. With a stretchy 'knit' fabric, you often are best off using a Jersey / ball-point machine needle. :)

    Any house building project I get into:
    "That looks so awesome! I can do that!"
    Starts enthusiastically.
    Halfway through: "Whyyyyyyy did I think this was a good idea???!?!"
    2 months later: Just finished the project. "Ok ready to die now soooo tired."
    One month after finishing: "It looks so awesome! 🥰"
    Lol, good job guys. Keep up the hard work. Can't wait to see the house all done!
