    CAT ATTACK!

    Love my pets BUT I could have killed the cat when it wanted to attack the guy line on my new tarp. ..

    Poked five holes and puckered the material. ..sigh...
    He new something was wrong when i bolted from the hammock and threw my hat at him.
    Gggrrrrrrrr!

    Tenacious tape is your friend.
    I sew things on youtube.
    I don’t sew on commission, so please don’t ask. Thanks.

    Holes are small and at the bottom of the tarp. Think I'll just try some thinned sylicon.

    Not to be "that guy", but declawing cats removes the first knuckles on the paws. Not just removing the cuticles. It's a pretty vicious surgery.

    I trim our cat's claws. He gets a treat after and loves it!

    You've got bad luck like I do... This past fall I had either a opossum or raccoon ,I couldn't tell which because it was dark and I only saw its evil, pointy, demon teeth as it lunged up from under my hammock and tried to bite my face off. Lucky ( or unlucky) for me I was zipped inside my XLC and the net stopped the evil hell creature from de-noseing me. It left holes in my net and hammock body, nasty mouth slime, hair and bits of its last hammockers errr meal, oozing from it, then slipped back into the eather to terrorize another innocent victim with it's needle like demon fangs and piercing shrieks in the night.... Thank god for no-seeum, had those holes been any bigger.... Lol
