I have .... 7 .... quilt inspectors. But because several of my kitties are special needs, the door to the quilt/sew/craft room is always closed. Several of the kitties are seniors. the old girls and guys can't jump up/down to far and drool a little when sleeping. Others burrow, making nice 'kitty nests' whilst disrupting and pillaging. One has a chronic stomach condition (putting it nicely...lol), and one has weepy eyes from a past medical condition. I love em.... but not on my fabrics!

So what I do instead, is have 'kitty' quilts that I take downstairs, and use as covers over the furniture and chairs. They know which ones are the special layers of quilts/throws just for them to burrow and snuggle, curl up and snooze. When I want to read through some quilting magizines or books, I go downstairs and snuggle with my best buddies... who inspect my quilting books (occasionally showing their appreciation for certain books by biting the corners and perferating magazine pages... ). lol. Every 4 or 5 days, I wash the quilts and coverings...
