Legitimate question: Where do I put my cat on moving day?
Open doors & people coming and going all day makes me super nervous about keeping her inside, but I don't want her to get spooked and hide somewhere in the yard (or the neighbor's yard).
She HATES her cat carrier and will not hang out in it for even 15 minutes without losing her shit.
it is possible to bring her to the new place prior to moving everything?
I brought my cat over to my new apartment and left her in the bathroom while the movers moved all my shit between my apartments.

Just put her in the cat carrier. She's a cat. She'll deal with it.
And then bide her time and kill you in your sleep. She is a cat, after all.

Bathroom it is! I was thinking of using the bathroom, but I was worried someone might have to use it (at either place). But I'll keep her in the bathroom at our current place. If someone needs to go they can drive 2 miles down the street to our new place.

Last time I took her to the vet I wrapped her up like a burrito and plopped her into her carrier...and then realized I couldn't find my keys. While I was tearing up the apartment and she was unattended in the carrier, she pushed her face against the door so hard it cut her nose & forehead.
She just might die if left in it for any length of time!

Oh man, she is going to be so upset with us.
my cat hid under my tub for 3 days after I moved into my new place. she was not a fan of moving.

your cat sounds scary.
She has issues for sure (rescue with meannnnn previous owners), but she is a sweetheart once she trusts you.

Moving is very tough on cats. For the first few nights give her a blanket filled box on its side in a less used area for a temporary cave/hiding spot; she'll come out in time.
As for the injuring herself on the wire mesh door: cut out a piece of cardboard to match the inside of the door and attach it to the inside of the door. Cover this with a towel or something, then close the door worth the fabric sticking out, being held by the now closed door.
The side vents will still allow airflow and some light / sounds to come through; you will still be able to check on her, but much less rough stuff will be accessible for her to hurt herself.

Maybe old news, but thought it could help.
Thank you, that does help! I've got tons of extra cardboard handy at the moment!
I also ordered her some of this stuff, hoping it helps mellow her out on moving day.

I love the "smart alarm" feature on my Galaxy S4. A minute before your set alarm time, it slowly lights up and plays an alarm tone very softly, slowly increasing in volume. If by that minute, you haven't woken up, the normal alarm will sound. I love it, I always wake up before the real alarm goes off, and there's not some loud alarm.
My alarm is "Here Comes the Sun." Until I changed it to that I never realized how important the sound you're waking up to is on the rest of your day. It is so much more peaceful.
Sorry, catching up. Carry on with your cat discussion. Keep in mind though, doesn't matter what you do- they'll all kill you anyways.

You know, I think that might be the perfect song for an alarm. Thanks for the suggestion, need to see if I can change it to that!

I used to use songs that I like as my alarm, but eventually whenever I heard the song I associated it with waking up and I've gone on to hate the song. So I just use the standard alarm even though I hate it

That's false; they only don't mind eating you after you die. Why kill the stupid hands that feed them (and willingly police cat shit)? Cats are way too lazy and self serving for that.
The only ones they kill are small children, by sitting on their chests while the tykes sleep - with their murderous, furry faces sucking up all the oxygen.
That's not even the cat's fault. They are not trying to steal the oxygen; no, it's the soul they are after.
Beware a person who is confident sleeping with a cat nearby. We ain't ascairt.

It is perfect. But be warned: If you do, you'll never be able to listen to the song normally again..

My alarm is now "The Bees Made Honey in the Lion's Skull" by Earth. For a long time it was a loud nuclear sounding alarm, kind of a GET UP FUCKER way to start the day.

My alarm is Mr. Blue Sky and despite waking up to it every day for the last like 8 years, I love it as much as I did 8 years ago. Still a top 100 song for me, maybe the quintessential happy song.
Booked on an impromptu trip to Knoxville next week. Here's hoping the weather is a little less dramatic by then.
All the weather reports now are putting it as highs in the low 60s which would be pretty damn sweet.
I'm so insanely jealous of you. The highest I see in my future is 40° next Tuesday... I'm off for the next two weeks though. Maybe I'll head south for a bit to warm up... I need to get out of this cold before I lose my damn mind. I'm not like the rest of these people. I'm not going to pretend this weather is tolerable.
