I am tired of cats...

Saturday started very early with the boys' Flag Football game. Then the kids and I worked on the following: getting groceries, mowing at our rental house and at the church, cleaning the church and making potluck, then we get a call from Russell. He said he drilled a hole for the pipe in the picture and he believed there was a lot of cat manure under the floor. Well, knowing Bob's schedule is crazy, I took Cody and we started tearing apart the floor. It wasn't an easy job. That area was hard wood, covered with linoleum from the ancient past. It didn't remove very easily.
Russell was correct. We discovered that the cats could get under the floor from the basement and this was the spot they used.

Nasty. It didn't smell too bad. Since the skunk sprayed in the basement, you couldn't smell much more than that.
The next door neighbor, David came over and jumped right in with the demo work. Between Cody and him, the floor came up pretty fast.

The hammer didn't make it however. It has been quite abused in the last few months.
