They've never touched my furniture, and my cats LOVE to cuddle in any blanket or quilt, or pile of laundry. Sure, they shed a bit, but it's all washable.

We have 3 cats. Two were declawed when we got them. The
third one got declawed after he shredded my drapes and
sheer curtains, but he never went after my quilts. All of
them just love to curl up on or under them though , and
just like sewjoyce quilts we give away have free fur
attached.

My cats only want to help make the quilt. My dogs on the other hand have chewed holes in three of my quilts. Including my very first one.
They are still living and I still love them. I just make more quilts.

We have three cats currently. None are big time scratchers, except on the designated objects. Hair is another story. They are all long haired.
Gandolf is new here and is wanting to be the quilt tester since the old quilt tester, Hamish passed away.
This is him the other night. I was hollering at him to get off this quilt, and he turned his back to me so I could no longer see him, and went back to sleep.
gotta love them...

Gandolf, working hard.

Isn't that how it works?? I had a friend, she owned a LARGE black and white cat named Panda. He would HIDE from you outside, BEHIND a blade of grass....at the rigtht distance, from the right angle, the grass would block us from his view

A friend got my cat a toy with a string attached so you could tie it to a door knob for cat entertainment. Murphy chewed the string off and got it tangled around the back of his tongue. I couldn't figure out why he wasn't eating and was just laying around took him to the vet and was very fortunate he had not swallowed it and the vet was able to clip it and remove it. None of my cats are allowed toys with strings now.
