Stained Cabinets & Friend

Johnny McDonald the painter started staining the cabinetry this morning. He said he always stains and seals all wood before he paints because if any paint happens to fall on the wood work it will wipe right off. Our builder Steve, went on to tell us the story about the one time Johnny broke his rule and painted first. His paint hose broke! The paint went everywhere. It landed all over his customers unstained-wood cabinets and he had to replace them. He said it was a very costly mistake.
The cabinets actually look darker than my camera pictures show. Johnny applied a honey oak stain on the cherry wood which is just a little darker than the wood flooring.

Elizabeth found our latest critter at the house hanging on the screened in porch this evening. Should we keep him?
