I keep my grilles on 100% of the time. Not to protect the speaker, but to protect the grilles. The safest place for the grilles is actually on the speaker.
In 1989 I was showing a buddy of mine my AX2's and he accidently sat on one of my grilles which I had placed on my bed (still living with my parents at the time). It broke, and I had to get a new one.
Ever since then I keep the grilles on the speakers, even when showing other people. Only take them off if they ask to see the driver compliment. And the I put them right back on.

I have a cat. Self explanatory.
She's been real good about scratching her claws in places where it was meant to be scratched. (There are 2 exceptions, though)

Yeah, my cat leaves the grilles alone but she gets curious with those drivers showing...

I stop using my grilles on my m60's after I noticed how much more crisper the sound was with the grills off.
