My cat doesn't go in sewing room but I have had to be careful to keep paper towels and kleenex and toilet paper put away. She is mostly interested in the toilet paper. I have had to put it in a snap lid canester to keep her out of it. She never stops trying to get the lid off the canister tho. She can't reach the towels now but still have to remember to always pick up kleenex. She doesn't bother any other paper.
