Yeah, having several new people in the house and all the noise from work being done is going to upset most cats. I'm glad you and he have some time to rest.

I feel your pain about the house stuff. We took delivery of our house in February and have had challenges as far as the things we want to do, both by ourselves and outside workmen. It gets frustrating when things don't come out the way you planned. At least you are in the home stretch, it sounds. Ahh, the "joys" of home ownership!!
