All the exciting things I've ordered lately and the first thing to arrive has to be the mop bucket. Still, it is a very nice mop bucket. And it has wheels, so it can roll with me as I move around the room. Plus it's in a nice bright hazard warning yellow with "wet floor" warnings on the side, so Miss Meow and Mr Woof will know to be careful. Although it would probably be more useful if I actually had the mop.

it's traditional aussie custom as per Lennie Lower to tie fluffy cats and dogs to poles to make mops

Technically mr woof and miss meow could be used as interim mop heads.

Technically. Mr Woof had a bath yesterday, so I guess it should be Miss Meow's turn. I suspect if I tried it I would end up with many claw marks.
