I have my "sewing cave" in the walled off unfinished portion of the house basement....half is for longarm other half my sewing/fab/stuff...great setup---no complaints here. Have 2 dogs/2 cats neither are allowed in my space...dogs could care less, cats will meow and tap on door to get in, then settle down in family room portion and patiently wait. Once, one got in, jumped up onto shelving unit and somehow up into rafter area....fell through the drop ceiling of office next to me.....so no more...next time she might have crawled into the family room/bar area/bathroom which are dry walled ceilings....they are truly tree cats-always looking and jumping up, not bush cats who are content on the floor.......
