It is raining so I must have a garland of dirty paw prints on my white top

We have 5 cats ranging in age from 13 to 2.  The next to eldest, Yeowller, a neutered male, is a spotted tabbie and is as loving and attentive as they come.  The youngest is Ptera Dactyl, a polydactyl neutered female who is also the local house terrorist.  In between these 2 cats is Pipsqueak, a blue eyed cross eyed cross breed.  He is part Siamese and part spotted tabbie, who most times has a tolerable personality but who also has a nasty side. 

When it has rained and snowed this winter, this intredpid trio insists on going outside for romps or at least scouting missions in the yard, their front paws become wet and soiled.  And being cats, they don't like that state of affairs! 

My faux suede chair is covered with paw marks where they have danced back and forth over the years. For some reason, this winter (2012/2013) these 3 cats have decided that my upper chest is a wonderful spot upon which to dry their delicate paws and warm their tootsies!  Every top I wear during the winter has been so treated by the cats.  A simple washing removes the evidence of their traipsing over me, but sometimes it is a bit annoying when it is mid morning, I'm freshly dressed,  and they annoint me so!  But got to love them, they are my babies!
