I had to laugh when I saw this. My interest in quilting is very new, and nearly obsessive and my perplexed husband asked me the other day if we were going to be getting a cat. I had no idea what he was talking about and he explained that *everyone* knows that quilters love cats. I'd never heard that before -- see how much I have still to learn about quilting? ;) In fact, I am a total dog person and extremely allergic to cats. I hope I can still make it as a quilter!

Actually, we have 2 dogs, 2 cats, and a horse. Not sure how the horse feels about quilting.

Nope, don't scoop the litterbox either, that's what kids are for. I will, however scoop if no one else is home.
I had one of those new fangled litterboxes that scooped and then the stuff went down the toilet. Thing costs about $300, but it was given to me. I hooked it up and my cats wouldn't go near it, the sound scared them, so I gave it away to a friend who absolutely loves it.

You still will be a great quilter even without a cat.

I think the cats love our fabric more then we do.! All my cats over the years and these 2 here sure do. I was up last night late ironing my sons jeans and watching a movie and Smile -my granddaughter named him that bez he smiled at her the first time she looked at him. isn't that cute - he would go to the office desk and get a marker and carry it under the diningroom table - I'd take it from him and he would go get another. I know this has nothing to do with quilts - when I do get my patches out they are right in the middle and will steal them. Every time I am sitting and talking on the phone Sparky (he was found under a burning brush pile) will push the phone from my face --I think cats and quilts go together like needle and thread.....
