My girlfriend and I do all the work, the cat sucks up all the heat. It's a wonder he doesn't self-combust!

Fbelec:

He's 1/2 Bull Mastiff and 1/2 Bull Terrier (trying to be PC here and not say "pit Bull")

Yes - the hearth is made of soapstone tiles. I'm not very good at matching things up, and wanted something that would look good with the stove, so i figured, why not soapstone. Thanks I think it came out pretty good for a first attempt. The hearth is a little dirty in the pic, and really looks sharp when it has a coat of mineral oil on it. Unfortunately, whenever I give it a coat of oil, SOMEBODY (see picture) keeps licking the hearth!!!
 
here's my cat stove. no fire in the stove yet of course.

I have a "cat" stove too. She keeps burning her tail when I reload it. She gets to close to the open door.
 
And my non-cat cat stove. We refer to her as the fire whore. She literally goes nuts when I go to fire the thing up. She does get nice and toasty, though.

I hope the cat doesn't think that the stove is a good "landing" to go part way down on the trip down from the mantel

Nope. He hasn't been up there since we fired it up a few weeks ago. Seems to be more interested in the cooler rooms in the house now. Maybe its a long-haired vs. short-haired thing.

This cat loves the fire...
