I got a notice from my apt compex that for the next 4 days they will be working on my bedroom closet, linen closet and a small closet and that everything must be removed since they'll be replacing the posts, shelves, etc.
Normally when maintence comes to work in my apt, I put all my cats in the bedroom but that's out of the question for this so the plan was for me to put them in carriers then put in the bathroom for half a day while I'm at work (have some imp mtgs in the mornings or afternoons that I can't miss) then I come home immediately, let cats out of the carriers but keep in the bathroom until the men are done for the day then let cats out of the bathroom.
Today was the first day so I rushed home from the meeting and immediately let all cats out of the carriers IN the bathroom. To my shock, Spikey was growling and hissing and kept attacking other cats so I KNEW I couldn't leave him like that in the bathroom with others so as of now, I put him in a carrier and brought him out to the living room to be with me as I do work from desk while other cats roam the bathroom until the men are done for the day. I am thinking of letting him out of the carrier then if the men comes back to work, I can just grab him and put him back in the carrier.... But what if he immediately goes to the bathroom door and other cats finds out he's out and that drives them more crazy??
Do u have any better suggestions of what I can do about this??? I have asked the men if they could try to finish my apt in 1 day and they said no cuz they have a process that takes 4 days to do...
I feel so bad for my cats!!!!!!!!! What to do??
