Refrigerator Wall Cabinet or Kitty?
For those of you on the fence about whether to get deep refrigerator wall cabinets or regular 12″ cabinet over the fridge, I’ve a bit of advice. Get the deeper cabinets.
Do you see this picture? This is my own kitchen, with 12″ cabinets over the fridge. That leftover space is generally taken up by one of my cats, who the children affectionately call “Kitten Little.”
She is generally a nice cat, but she like to wait up here on top of the refrigerator in wait. Since I’m the only one whose head goes anywhere near her perch, I can only assume that she’s lying in ambush for me.
So here’s what happens… I get rushing around the house, preparing meals or getting the kids ready for bed, and I forget she’s up there. I come walking through the alley created by our fridge and pantry, and WHAP! WHAPWHAPWHAP! I’ve been ATTACKED!
This innocent looking little kitty is evil. When next I remodel my kitchen, I’m getting deeper refrigerator wall cabinets to avoid this whole scenario, and I advise you all to do the same.
