Cats can be especially distracting when they try to help with the unwrapped tape dangling from the bars as it is wound on (yes, they think they are trying to help, I know). There are steps in the process where one can take a break if necessary, but it is nice to be able to maintain focus to do a good job, and to NOT rush things. | |
