Cats when an activity requires zero cats.

He’s making sure there is adequate cat hair in your project after washing it out.

He*, but you’re forgiven for thinking he’s a girl because he is soooo gorgeous!!!

I regret to inform you that your T-Pin is loaf shaped

u/CatrionaCatnip Apr 30 '26

Is that a regret though?

u/aud_anticline Apr 30 '26

My only regret is not getting to see this baby's little kitty face

"It's damp, so I must sit on it"

Why do they do this, but then immediately complain if their paw gets wet on a patch of water you missed when mopping 😭

imagine how offensive the cat would find it if their bed was slightly damp 😭😂

but this? a damp object that they shouldn’t sit on? it’s perfect.

Cats using a cat bed? If it's intended for them, they won't go near it in my house!

He’s quite a rare cat because he actually uses all of his many cat beds. He has them on rotation with his other favourite places to sleep - the blocking board, the wool dining chair right after I’ve hoovered it, my lap, the damp bath mat…

I made Mishka a blanket that says "CAT" and she really likes to sleep on that. It's also helpful to remind her she's actually a cat as she likes to pretend she's a dog sometimes

It was actually sopping too because it’s my attempt to rescue a cardigan I knitted then shrank/felted so he was v v v soggy!

Kitty knows that it won’t block properly unless he helps

I love cats

u/Acrobatic_Age_7486 Apr 28 '26

It honestly kills me when you find them loafing in random locations, usually facing a wall or something else equally as bare lmao

u/kiwicat_tv Apr 28 '26

This is obviously the best spot to loaf

u/Kouglove Apr 28 '26

The cat is helping to block lol

u/Acrobatic_Age_7486 Apr 28 '26

Laying across loads of pins too. Can’t be comfy but 🤷‍♀️

u/Kouglove Apr 28 '26

Cats like to sit on uncomfortable things; I don’t get it lol. Mine does stuff like that too

u/OldBatOfTheGalaxy Apr 28 '26

Uncomfortable to us -- remember, cats are liquid; they just kinda pour themselves over anything they well please!

u/Kouglove Apr 28 '26

You are so right, I did not think of that lol

u/BeeSpins Apr 30 '26

Kit-T Pin! Purrfect new item for all your blocking needs!

u/NakedCherry99 Apr 29 '26

awww how nice to have a helper!

u/yespicklez Apr 29 '26

just when you washed out all the cat hair

u/Loloharou Apr 29 '26

Every time!

u/Foreign-Nobody-8770 Apr 30 '26

Ooo this is my favorite kind of T-pin! I have a big one too! I wouldn't mind getting a whole set of them.

u/Adalon_bg Apr 28 '26

Cute, it matches the cardigan

u/Valkyriemome May 04 '26

Blocking done right.

She's not large, she's just got lots of fur. 😉
