cimoreneToday we were gonna do the fast version of taking hay and bunny poops out of the living room, which is picking up and shaking all the little area rugs (maybe about six?), removing the furniture from the bunny cages and sweeping them out (without replacing and sweeping under their rugs).
But when I was doing the sweeping thing, I discovered pee on the edge of the rag rug next to the outside of Rowan's cage where they like to chew on the rug and eat hay off the floor. 😐 It hasn't been a previously peed-on spot, because usually Rowan only pees where he can eat hay out of the hayrack. Soooo there was a layer of cork padding and a thick layer of waterproof plastic under the rug there because it's right by the cage, but it was the very edge of the rug so the pee went under the edge of the plastic and soaked the cork under it and the plastic held it down and it soaked in... to the oak parquet (even though it's maximum three weeks since we've changed that rug and not even that much pee - we would've smelled a bigger spot).
That's now two for two livingroom oak parquet floors in this house that Rowan has ruined with bunny pee, which for some reason produces a permanent purple stain. (He did the one on the tenant side back in 2019, before the renovation was done over here.)
This parquet is scratched and it needed sanding and refinishing, but before the purple that was still fully possible. And I mean, it still is, but it will still be purple afterwards now. In a spot right in the doorway to the diningroom.
Luckily we don't care much about that kind of thing.
