    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.

    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!)

    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!

    You might want to secure the top of the cat tower to the wall at the top. When there were two cats near the top box, the tower did wobble a lot.

      My cat tower has a wooden disk at the top that you can screw up/down until it's pressed firmly against the ceiling. Works like a dream!

Thanks for always sharing a little bit of your life with us, it’s always a pleasure to experience a small part of it . Much love to you both and the kitties . 🐱 💕

    The kitty I've had since I was eight recently passed away.. Watching these old videos that I used to watch with her has been really cathartic for me. Thank you for continuing with your content, it helps me more than you can ever know. One day, my kitty and I will see each other again in the stardust..

    6:08 I wonder if Pichi can see better out of the lower half of her vision and that's why she tilts back like that.

    Damn, you did such an awesome job! Rachel, you have a LOT more patience than I ever will. Those staples would drive me to distraction and I would be looking for the F9 button at every step.
    Pichi is so at home now. I'm very happy that y'all rescued her and make her life so much happier than it could have been. I was worried about Poki when y'all brought him into y'all's home but he has really become a member of your family, just like sweet Pichi. Y'all are such awesome folks!!!

    The sound that Jun makes when the cats start getting into the fabric on the floor? That sound is a universal sound- it transcends language. That is official Cat Language. Cats everywhere elicit those noises from their humans…love to see it!
    Also, as a redhead (who studied Japanese) who has a redhaired uncle who has lived in Tokyo for 50+ years with his Japanese wife, I love seeing more redheads in Japan!
