Problem: Article: Lawyers often have to work late into the evening, sometimes with no notice. Instead of getting angry when they have to cancel a dinner date, let them know you understand the difficult position they’re in. Say something like “I know it’s not up to you. Let’s reschedule for this weekend!” You'll be less likely to resent your lawyer after a canceled date if you have a backup plan for how to spend your evening. Call up a friend and see if they're available for a last-minute cocktail or offer to come over with pizza. If no one's available, go shopping for something for yourself, like new shoes or a book you've been wanting to read. If they cancel dinner plans because they have to work late, pick up food from their favorite restaurant and bring it to their office. Check to make sure their boss won’t mind if you stay and eat too. This will give you extra time together while still allowing them to stay on top of things at work. Lawyers spend so much of their time at work during the week that they like to go out and have a good time on the weekend. Rather than just staying in and watching TV, plan to visit street festivals, go to museums, have picnics in the park, see movies, and try new restaurants. Understand that if they have a heavy workload, weekend dates may get canceled as well. Avoid putting non-refundable deposits down on any activities. Lawyers have to go to lots of work events and parties that require formal dress. To show you’re supportive of their career, try to attend as many of these as possible. And don’t bug them to leave early, since they’re likely trying to make a good impression with their boss. Build out your wardrobe to feature lots of formal wear so that you don’t have to wear the same dress or suit to every event. Consider a clothing rental service like Rent the Runway if you can’t afford to pay for new dresses.
Summary: Show support when they cancel dates. Make a backup plan for when dates fall through. Surprise them at work. Plan fun weekend outings. Attend their formal parties.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You will want as many sturdy boxes of different sizes as you can find. Cardboard boxes can be obtained for free from membership warehouse stores, liquor stores, furniture stores, discount stores, copy shops, toy stores, or grocery stores. Cardboard tubes can be salvaged from paper towels, wrapping paper, mailing tubes, and bolts of fabric. It is important  to pick appropriate materials for your cat.  For example, if your cat likes to chew cardboard, don't use tape or glue. Pick the materials according to whether you want to be able to disassemble some or all of the boxes after you are finished or whether you want some or all of the boxes to be permanently connected. Think about a shape that would fit well in your house and would provide comfort and entertainment to your cat. Decide whether you want different "rooms" to have different purposes: you might build an observation deck, for instance, and designate one room for sleeping and hiding, and one room for snacking.  Take the future location of your structure into account. If it is by a window, you will want the cat structure to have plenty of windows, and you will want to build it so that it does not block your light. You might choose to build next to a wall that will provide support, or it may be freestanding, in which case you will need to reinforce your structure. Experiment with different ways of arranging the boxes:  Put some boxes inside of others.  Connect two or more groups of boxes using single, long boxes as tunnels or bridges.  Make steps using a series of smaller boxes. Experiment with different size windows, doors, and trap doors.  Draw windows, doors, or trap doors first before cutting. Do not build your jungle gym more than four levels high. The higher you build your jungle gym, the wider the base should be in each direction. Make an exit plan. While designing your jungle gym, make an "emergency hatch" so that you can access your cat without completely tearing apart and destroying the jungle gym.  This is important when you need to give your cat medicine or take them to the vet. If you have multiple cats, you will want to be able to remove them in case they are fighting inside their new space. If your cats are new or if they are needy, they may decide they are trapped and need to be rescued. Design multiple exits in each box so your cats cannot corner one another. Use cardboard tubes as support posts in vertical structures. Cardboard tubes can also be used to create see-saws; fold one or two in half and place inside another for stability, then tape the tube to the bottom of a long, narrow box with holes cut into it. Kittens especially will be entertained by the unexpected rocking as they move from one end to another. It is easiest to do this in the room where the play equipment will stay.  After it is assembled, it can be difficult to maneuver play equipment around corners, up or down stairs, or through doorways. Connect the boxes by building tunnels out of smaller boxes, and by gluing and taping everything in place.  Make it sturdy. If you build the play equipment more than a couple of boxes high, you will need to reinforce the first couple of levels with something like cut pieces of cardboard. Cut cardboard to fit along the sides of each box and wedge it into the corners. Reinforce the floors and roof of the boxes with flat pieces of cardboard. Check for safety before you let your cats play on the structure. Try kicking and shaking your structure to test its sturdiness. Place objects the weight of your cat or cats together in each section of the structure to make sure it will hold them easily. Add soft surfaces to make the play equipment comfortable for your cat.  Use materials that can be removed for cleaning. Cat size pillows can be made from old socks, potholder mitts, pillowcases, hand towels, shirts, or curtains. Sew up all but one side of your cloth, then stuff with cotton or other washable material and sew closed. Stuff socks with catnip, or tie knotted rope so it dangles. Be sure to avoid toxic materials and choking hazards.  Add a flutter "curtain" over a window or doorway for your cat to bat. If your cat likes mirrors, try gluing one to a box's inside wall. Your cat might not instantly be attracted to its new toy. Catnip placed inside could break the ice. Put familiar toys or blankets inside the entrance room to encourage your cat to explore. Try temporarily placing your cat's food dish inside the cat house. If the structure isn't appealing where it is, try moving it nearer a window or under a sunbeam. Cats may ignore a structure for days or even weeks before they try it out. Give them time. Watch your cats as they enjoy their jungle gym to learn what they like and what elements of your design work best. Eventually each cardboard jungle gym will start to sag and wear out. Use your observations to design your next cat jungle gym.
Summary:
Gather boxes and tubes. Gather materials to hold the boxes together. Design the structure. Get creative with cardboard tubes. Connect the boxes. Make it cozy. Decorate with toys. Introduce your cat to the play equipment. Observe your cats at play.
