Oh dear! You know, in some old villages here in Italy, you can still see animal prints set in ancient plaster. They tell a story about the life that happened there. Your cat's little accident might just add a bit of heart to your repair job. Think of it like a hidden signature, a mark of your own home's history. It's frustrating now, but someday you might look back and smile at those stubborn paw shapes. That wall will have a tale all its own.
Hold up, did vera482 just compare a messed up floor to old Italian art? Honestly that's a wild take. I've seen pet damage on jobs and it's never cute, it's just a pain to fix. Tbh if I left paw prints in someone's new plaster they'd be calling me back to redo the whole section. Ngl that's some next level finding the bright side though.
