    Now, I don't have one myself, but I noticed alot of quilters here and others I know have at least one cat. Would you say 75% does? Is that too high?

    ....or 3?
    cupcake, rocky road and muffin,
    yes there was a theme going on, all our animals were named after food, imagine that, then we had a dog named peaches, she was a black chow, but we have broken away from that, and our new dog is hairy...lol

    I like cats in pictures, but I'm a dog lover, so it's no for me. 2 dogs here. I would say no more than 40% of quilters are cat guardians.

    Well, we have 2 dogs and 2 cats. The kitty boys are not that interested in my actual quilting when I work(which is good, because I don't want the risk of them swallowing thread or needles) BUT when I audition quilt layouts they are in the middle of things. From experience I can tell that when they show no interest, it's not a good plan. When they are all over it - I go with it! Funny, huh?

    We had two great cats, but our white cat (Cuddles) always found my sewing project to 'snuggle' into. I bet she would love my current quilt! I miss her as well as her pal Lucky. We got Lucky on a Friday the 13th!
