I have a small kitten rescue. I tend to have at least 6 and up to 14 kittens at a time zooming all over my house. I have one right now who is the BEST helper with sewing.. oh that fabric coming through the machine he sits in the back and helps pull it through.. he pounces on the fabric I am cutting (grrr) and oh if there happens to be a piece I can toss on the floor to him he is in kitty heaven. And heaven forbid I leave a piece I am working on on the ironing board overnight. The whole house and where does EVERYONE have to sleep? Good thing I wash my gifts before I gift them! Not everyone is as excited as I am with cat hair.
