privacy curtains

let's face it, nobody likes to be viewed when doing their business.  our cats have their litterbox under the stairs, with the vacuums, and lil' fuzz likes his tucked in the corner of his cage.  however, to provide further privacy (like behind lil' fuzz so no one can sneak up on him), i sewed all the animals privacy curtains.  mind you, we have some modest, fastidious boys in the house.  before:

the wire is a curtain hanging wire from ikea.  eric had a hard time getting the left part in because of the narrowness of the corner.  and after:

a little crooked, but whatevs.  the fabric is canvas from ikea.  fuzz's former privacy curtain was rather bootleg:

yes, a hand towel hahahahah.  i used the same green canvas from my vacuum bag and the curtains in the apartment to make a custom cage curtain:

sharp, right?  look how perfectly it wraps the corner!

they're attached to the top rung of the sides with 4 velcro flaps.  i wanted to be able to remove it in case i needed to wash it.  i don't trust lil' fuzz's aim, hehe.  i've since switched fuzz's teeny corner litter pan to a kitten litter pan.  he kept peeing over that shorter edge too frequently.

now if only we can neaten up his eating habits.  he tears through his salad (picked fresh from our garden out back!!).  fuzzfeeding:

since my last post, back in april, we've been munching on these new cookies i baked.  a bit sweeter than i prefer, but the crunch is lovely.  clove cookies:

and finally, i end with a cheerful, beautiful pic.  my former coworker from philly, for whom i made a jar of stars and who helped move me to brooklyn with his 2 kids, sent me this pic yesterday:

see, my jars of stars can be useful!!  happy may!
