The new neighbors |
I digress—new neighbors moved in. The woman is from Brazil and the guy from Germany. Usually, when there's a move-in or move-out, I scramble UTB to my office. Quite frankly, the noise is deafening. We live right across from the elevator—yeah, what were the peeps thinking when they signed the lease—so all the furniture and boxes get taken out of the elevator and piled in front of our door.
Early on the morning of the move-ins, they put wood planks on the floor to protect the incredibly ugly hall carpeting. Actually, they THROW them down. **CRASH!!** Then the movers yell, scream and make as much of a racket as they can. I think they're gonna come right through our door so I head into my UTB office so I can catch some shut-eye.
You can't scare me! Pop will eat you for dinner and then spit you out. |
Last month, I stood my ground. Maybe it was cos Pop was home and I felt safe. Pop can handle those guys if they try to bust in here with their furniture and noise. He can take all of them together. That's how tough my Pop is. If that doesn't work,

We bet you and your Pop together could stop anything, CK. :)
ReplyDeleteI think we kitties should be in charge of moving - things would be VERY different!
ReplyDeleteGlad you survived the neighbors move in, Keisha. Have you met them yet, or do you even plan to?
ReplyDeleteSounds to us like your condo could have used a freight elevator for things like moving day.
Mowzers, where were the Noise Police when ya need them?
ReplyDeleteUTB is the best place to be when strange noises happen. I go there, too.

We hope they turn out to be nice neighbors! (they seem awfully skinny, though)
ReplyDeleteIt's good you didn't have to hide CK. Maybe you can learn to meow in German now.
ReplyDeleteSounds kinda scary. I did pop your name in the nomination hat for a few things ;) Good luck!
ReplyDeleteOh my we hope it is quiet now. We have builders next door. It is bang, crash, drill, drill from morning to night. Have a super Saturday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Good for you CK! Sometimes I don't like loud noises even if my Dad is here.
ReplyDeleteWe don't like it when new people move it either. We stare at them and give them the evil eye. Ateret freaks out.
ReplyDeleteThank COD for Pop! With him there, you have nothing to worry about!
ReplyDeleteWe nominated you for the Petties. :)
Geez... don't your new neighbors have any respect for you? The gall... anyhow, try to have a good weekend all best of luck with the Petties! Purrs from the Zee and Zoey gang!
ReplyDeletewe feel your pain. We live in a condo/apt building too but ours only has 2 floors. No elevator. Sometimes the noise here gets pretty bad too!
ReplyDeleteUnexpected noise is stressful. Good luck in the Petties. We'll give you a nom.
ReplyDeleteWe don't think we'd like all that noise outside our door either.
ReplyDeleteWe're hoping that your new neighbors are nice. The house across the street from us sold this week and we're hoping they are nice too.

So do the new neighbors have a kitty or woofie? If so, does it answer to Portuguese or German???
ReplyDeleteI did nominate you, yes I did! And I hope you win, too.
You aren't going to bite me, are you?
Hopefully the movers will only be there for a day. Our back neighbor has moved out and we purray whoever that buys the house doesn't see the need to spend MONTHS renovating the it.
ReplyDeleteStay strong and don't have a "hissy" fit. Soon, the noise will subside and you will have your peace and quiet back.
ReplyDeleteI hear you, CK. My spot is UTD (desk). Glad we have our peeps to keep the invaders in check.
ReplyDeleteI am wondering like Spitty if they have a kitty or .. horrors …. woofie? Good job for Pop is all I can say!!xx
ReplyDeleteHow rude and scary. I'm sure glad you have pop around for protection. He'll take good care of you. UTB is the best place when you are scared.
ReplyDeleteI totally remember about Cooperstown. I suppose there are more Yankees than Giants in there. Sigh. I guess I'll just have to get over it. Soon, my darling, soon!
ReplyDeleteIndeed, what were the peeps thinking, making you live right in front of noisy elevators. Moving day sounds like a nightmare but I'm glad to hear you feel safe if Dad's around.
ReplyDeleteWe got some new neighbors too. They had new carpeting put in and it was so scary that BOTH Waffles and I holed up in the Cat Sitter's room. Now THAT'S scary!
ReplyDelete; ) Katie
I didn't have movers and new neighbors...but they have been painting our town home...and I have had all these dudes like hanging by every single window...I can't sleep cuz I just know they are gonna crash through one of windows and poor foster Leo is scared too
ReplyDeleteWe'd hate that commotion right outside our front door. We are glad that we live a a really big old, old, old house with only our humans to try to keep in line. Purrs and hugs from the kitties at The Cat on My Head, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Josette.
ReplyDeleteWe are happy that your Pop protected you, CK.
ReplyDeleteWhen I get disturbed by noices I go under cover in mom´s and dad´s bed :)
