Yesterday I went on a Freecycle adventure (with the help of John, my lifter-of-things) and we came home with a lovely new area rug for our bedroom.
Since we acquired our living room rug I’ve been wanting something similar for the bedroom–to add some color and texture to such a simple space. The rug has beiges and greens and blacks, with just a smidge of purple. It looks great with the bed and the overstuffed purple chair in the corner.
EllyCat and TobyJoy aren’t so sure about the new rug, though. Last night they both perched near it, but not on it. As if it was invader in their space. Even placing Elly’s favorite mousy on the rug was no help in enticing her onto it. I might just sprinkle a bit of catnip on it and see if that helps.

A liberal (accidental) sprinkling of catnip on one of our rugs certainly made it Sam’s favorite for some time. Then he carried the catnip sock around enough that the catnip got all over the other rugs, too, so now he has no favorite.
