: Definitely a nice looking boat!

: My basement has been declared a cat-free zone... the door to the main floor
: of the house is closed....though occasionally the quick footed kitty
: (named "Kitty Kitty"-- the other cat-- "Kitty" is
: considerably slower)... has snuck through the door to the basement to
: inspect as I'm going in or out.... I'm hoping to avoid ever having to call
: my vet to ask how to remove epoxy from a cat.... or to remove an epoxied
: cat from a boat. (My vet is a member of my church, so I would NEVER hear
: the end of it.)

: The time I worried most was when I was gluing the panels of the Tern to full
: length...on the floor of the basement... and Kitty Kitty-- then a kitten,
: appeared.... he had gotten the laundry chute door open and slid down to
: the basement. I did think to take off my gloves that were sticky with
: epoxy *before* endeavoring to catch the cat.... and I did manage to keep
: the cat off the newly glassed joints.

Julie,
The cat will get into your shop, (that is just what they do). When they get epoxy on their kitty paws for the only time, (mine have never came back for seconds), use distilled vinegar to clean the cat, after that you have a wonderful companion in the shop.
