Oh don't get me wrong.. I employ the "shove all these things into the closet.... style" but in order to do it properly, like a pro, you have to have the big plastic tubs which is perfect because in the event that we ever need to burn things for heat for survival I will get quite a few sturdy, large litter boxes out of it.
We recently emptied our under stairs storage so we could put a litter box there. There's still quite a lot crammed into that tiny space and we often hear things fall over because someone becomes too adventurous during their expeditions to China (they must think they are climbing the Great Wall)... but at least we can close that door now when we have company so it looks like we're less of crazy cat people that we actually are (my apartment is like 1000sq ft, I have 5 boxes so any of them that I can hide is just amazing).
Since we lost that storage completely, we practice the "shove all this stuff including a box spring, 4 snowboards, an old school TV that's older than me, 4 years worth of text books, and my DH's retro video game collection into the spare bedroom which no one is allowed to use out of fear that the closet may explode at any moment causing a dangerous landslide of ancient technology and childhood nicknacks (seriously, ancient technology weighs like 30lbs regardless of what it is)... style"
We have a 6'x 6' media shelf (so it's really thin) that is PACKED FULL of JUST video games. The cats always scare me so badly because they try to play king of the mountain on top of it. I don't even know how they get up there but it never ceases to give me a heart attack and I can't reach them to get them down without assistance!
I am glad I could cheer you up! I feel bad for posting so much OT in your condo (I will be better tomorrow), but if it gives you some laughs that help you better deal with anything that arises with Punkin, I am glad I could be of assistance. I would like to see his Pre-Shots a little bit lower but it seems like he is feeling pretty good lately!
