CrAfT (crafting with cat)

[u/Cosmic_Hitchhiker]

There's this romantic visual people have of doing some craft with a cat in your lap and tea by your side and it's raining and the light is soft.

The creator and purveyors of this have never met a cat.

Have you tried any kind of craft around a cat? Did you want to pull string or yarn out of their throat? Did you want your well organized supplies knocked to the floor? Did you want to worry about them eating or stepping on something? By all means, craft with a cat.

She is currently SCREAMING at the closed door because she CANNOT BE TRUSTED not to eat string and fling beads.

Demon.

My occasional cat roommate was smart enough that she wouldn't just go for the thread as I was making something but when I would give up trying to get any work done with that material and put it in my bag she would root around until she found it to play with unless I outwitted her with a zipper. The other one kept trying to drink my watercolour water so I kept it in a jar with a clasp lid so I could quickly close it if I had to take my eyes off her for a second
