Waiting...

So now we get to wait and nervously bite our nails. The next step is the building inspection. The house we adore has been sitting vacant for the past three years. All things considered it looks great however there is a crack running down and interior wall and the wiring of the house is certainly unique, so we've no idea if it's up to code. The roof may also be an issue as god knows what condition the gutters are in after sitting for so long. However if all goes well with the inspection we'll sign the contracts and then start waiting again till settlement. We still have other issues as well as we need the money to line up, things look hopeful for the other houses sale and the contracts are about to be signed on it so we 'should' be good. If the building inspection fails we'll make an offer on the other house we liked which was rather nice as well.

So just to share here are some images of what would be the caviary

The view when you walk in the door

Same angle, the straight part of the wall is 305cm

The curvy part, the room next door is a turret (yes a turret)

The wall on the right which is 400cm

Mini wall on the left, it's bigger then it looks. The side next to the curve is 150cm and the side behind the door is 198cm

So thats what I have to work with, the curvy bit is totally screwing with my head. So the only planning I've got done is what will go on the walls. I have a gorgeous Indian Textile that was given to me for my 14th birthday when we India which will cover some of the curvy bit. Then I have an A2 portrait I did around the same time of all different cavies I've owned. An A4 pencil sketch of the first live baby I bred and her mother and a stylized portrait of two rescue pet babies in acrylic on canvas.

I'm hoping that I may be able to keep the green cart that's in the room (we're arranging to keep a fair amount of the original furniture) as a grooming cart, otherwise I'll buy a new one and paint it pink (I do pink LOl), then I'll either repaint the filing cabinet pink or put my baby blue and yellow vintage dresser in there for additional storage. I also have a bright pink food bin and 5 bright pink carriers that will also need to be stored.

At the start I'll be putting two purple pet store cages and a wire grid cage divided into two 60 x 70 cages in there and I have left over grids for an emergency cage if needed. However I'm not really sure about what else to put in there.

I also have a fantastic 2m x 1m lawn run that'll go outside as well.

Oh and I have a pink Samsara Cavies sign for the door. Can ya tell I like pink?
