Mine may be a pain in other ways, but they love my quilts. They have never torn one. My biggest problem is getting them off them so I can use them.

My cats LOVE my sewing table, especially when I am sewing. Newly ironed fabric is their favorite! I think they like the warmth, just like they sit on the laptop when it is closed!

Lynn, your cats are gorgeous, what I can see of them, and they all seem to like each other... how novel! LOL

Yes I think she is expressing her dislike when she treats it like litter. My daughter fed her cat at the top of the basement stairs and if he didn't like the food he'd push the dish down the stairs. It was definitely deliberate.

My cat loves my quilts. He evens helps me make them by choosing fabrics that feel good and by holding the fabric so it will not fall of the table while I'm sewing. And of course he has to approve the final project. I thought my stepson and his wife would have to fight the cat for their quilt. The cat really claimed this quilt as his.

Seriously, he has never harmed curtains or quilts.

Thank you. Some were feral and some were just abandoned. I have two crack kitties. The owner got them hooked on crack before she went to jail. I nearly lost them but now they have adjusted and fit into the family. All of my pets have a story.

What is wrong with some people?? Why would you get an animal hooked on drugs??

You, btw, are a wonderful person. Thank you for giving those animals a loving home.

I worked in the office of the narcotics dept. of my local police station for a number of years and I thought I had seen/heard it all!! But giving a kitten crack??? That's just down right WRONG!! So glad you took them in.... :D
