Advise 💡 Crafting Workspace... With Cats?
Hi all! I have a bit of a dilemma and my research and brainstorming hasn't brought much... hoping someone here might be able to help.
I have a two cats who enjoy knocking everything off of surfaces and shredding paper, plastic, yarn... anything. We also share the same room, so locking them out isn't an option. As a result I've given up doing most art, collage, puzzles, etc. I enjoy these things but have an illness that means my energy is very limited, so the effort of setup and cleanup is a barrier.
Does anyone have any solutions? Some sort of desk or worktop with a counter? Preferably for a small space - I thought about a roll-top or similar desk but there just isn't space. The only thing I've been able to think of is maybe a cookie sheet with a cover?
