I was snipping threads on a quilt top one day and snipped the top, and even though I was using small scissors the hole was pretty bad, I appliqued a matching flower over the top and then added a couple here and there like others have suggested.
Applique-the great fixer of so many problems.

Instead of kitty toys get a bag of dried catnip. Keep it in a glass jar - with a screwtop that kitty can't open!
Feed it at night...Kitty likely willplay hard for a while and stay zonked out all night.
Make some little orange mice and put a few specks
of catnip in them and kitty will play happily with them.
The reason I say orange mice is because you can see them!
and not step on them!- although they look like carrots, kitty doesn't really care!
And rub some specks of catnip around kittys bed - or where you want it to curl up and nap, and it wiil nap there.

That happened with my daughter's quilt (only it was a dog). I just appliqued a few stars on the front and since he had chewed through to the back, I added a few to the back. She doesn't remember where the holes were.
