I had to smile when you mentioned your elderly kitties, because we have four, three of which are getting older but still full of love, snuggles and occasional bursts of energy throughout the house! I have found Woolite Insta Clean Oxy Pet Stain Destroyers the absolute best! Smells nice and does a great job cleaning. Merry Christmas, and I hope you get settled into your new home soon.Susan B.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448019025261796302.post-57804563901590645242018-12-20T21:15:06.190-06:002018-12-20T21:15:06.190-06:00thanks Kris, I know that you guys know all about r...thanks Kris, I know that you guys know all about renovations and diys.

I also had the same carpet bound into a room sized area rug for the living room. It was expensive but I'm so glad I went with that product, it seriously cleans up great! There's a great spray by Oxy Clean that I swear removes every trace of pet stains....you may want to check it out!

I know you are getting closer to moving into your new home. I bet it has been nice to be able to live in the old place and work on the new place. That is always the best scenario to have when having to do a renovation. Merry Christmas sweet friend.<br />Hugs,<br />KrisJunkchiccottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13312068546640480844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448019025261796302.post-79487263982413009212018-12-18T00:00:19.995-06:002018-12-18T00:00:19.995-06:00Love all your choices!!

Great choice on the carpet, when building my current home I also was tired of traffic patterns and directions of the vacuum cleaner on carpet, so I went with an oatmeal Berber and still love it after 20 years. My felines are not declawed so there are some pulls, but I just clip them!! The pulls, not the felines!!<br /><br /><br />You have created a wonderful and warm neutral background that will showcase all your treasures...you are so creative, can't wait to see some finished rooms!!
