I HATE flippin throws! Well, I like the look of them but they are impossible to hoover and we have 3 cats that sleep all over them! They attract dust,grit,hair,bits of cat litter.....I don't like sitting down as even when I've hoovered it it still looks awful!! I can't piut them on properly either! I can put a rug on a horse in a force-10 gail so why am I finding a bit of soft furnishing so bloomin awkward?! Is there a knack? Not my idea to put them on...The OH did but then he never hoovers!!

Mine always end up on the floor Mittens. Or full of bits of chewed up stick (Beagle), crumbs (kids) and hair.

Same thing happens to my scatter cushions - dog likes to chew the corner off and pull the stuffing out

Glad it's not just me then!! Seriously thinking about making them suddenly disappear and then reappear on the horses in the guise of summer sheets!!

I can't ever get them to sit right though! I pull one end right then the other goes all askew! One of the sofas is nice without but I'll persevere! Or get "sateen" ones so it looks like Peter stringfellows boudoir

Ours is tucked into the back of the sofa, the cats sit on it, but I can hoover it when it's tucked in it keeps it in place mostly, just smooth it out a bit once I've finished hoovering!!
