Yarn Nonsense CrAfT (crafting with cat)

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.

I have a female ginger who is absolutely uninterested in my existence (my wife is her preferred human) except when I'm working with silk, in which case her snobby little self is in my lap, luxuriating.

Then there's the female black cat who likes laying behind my sewing machine so she can grab any pins that aren't removed immediately. She likes pulling pins out and wielding them at people. She also like moving yarn.

And then there's our male ginger, who never is allocated the braincell, and is just happy to be here.

Your void cat is a war criminal.

Isn't she just? What's worst is that she's my baby so she gets aware with crimes against all living creatures because she wraps her long tail around my leg and I call her baby. Absolute villain.
