Why is my cat doing this?Im really worried,help?
OK so my cat (2 or 3 years,a turkish van,female) will NOT stop meowing and she always needs a place soft to sit in,like my lap,or a rug.Her belly is going up and down with her meows.About 3 days ago she threw up and yesterday she was hyper.Help?Im really starting to get worried.Now shes very calm,and she was meowing at her full food bowl.She just crawled in my lap.Now,shes on my desk wandering around.Please help me?
It sounds like she may have a digestive issue. She may have ate a string, rubber band, or really anything that smelled like a good idea. She is asking for your comfort, because an intestinal block is very disturbing to them. Take her to the Vet asap and they can x-ray/examine to find the source of her discomfort. Sometimes they give a powerful laxative, other times it may require surgical removal. Good luck for you and kitty!

Carpet Turkish How do you install stair runners over steps finished with laminate flooring without ruining the…?
…laminate?
We bought Turkish carpet runners from overseas and plan to install them on our stairs ourselves. We’re not sure what the best way is to secure the carpeting to the stairs without marring the flooring. Any suggestions?
If the runner is not secure, there will definitely be an accident.
See the following Q & A:
Question
Is there a double sided tape I can use to secure the self padded stair runner to the part of the stair where you walk? The laminate is too hard for nails or staples. We screwed the carpet to the underneath edge of the stair where the bare wood was exposed. But, we did not install those brass bars where the rise and run meets, due to expense. Now the carpet sticks out beyond the edge of the stair. Any solutions cheaper than the brass bars, but still safe?
Answer
Hi Denise
Double face tape will not hold safely on your stairs. I’m assuming your not worried about the finish of the laminate since you tried to staple and nail through it. That being said, I would recommend a glue called Durabond D-815. It is a carpet seam sealer and multi-purpose adhesive and will hold very well on your steps. It costs about $12-$13 dollars a quart and one quart will be plenty for your steps.
I would take the carpet off the steps and re-do them using the glue. I would do 1 or 2 steps at a time. Run 2-3 1/8 inch beads of the glue at the top and bottom of each riser and 2-3 1/8 inch beads at the front and back of each step. Rub the carpet into the glue until it starts to tack up. D-815 sets up very quickly, usually within 3-5 minutes. Just keep rubbing it down until it grabs and holds securely. Repeat with the rest of the steps.
You will need an applicator bottle to apply the glue with. The store you buy it from should have them. As far as I know, only flooring supply companies carry the glue. But, a call or two to local flooring stores should help you find someone who carries it.
I hope this helps you out. If you need anything else, please don’t hesitate to ask. Good luck!
