It had been used for slaughtering chickens, so the top was full of ax marks and dried blood! I had to turn all the boards on top over and sand them like crazy. So, although it is not a family heirloom, I've had it for 30+ years.<br /><br />BG - the cats (and dog) are okay with the floor now - they didn't know what to make of it at first!<br />:)<br /><br />Dawn - thanks!
