laundry cat
One of my cats is for some reason attracted to freshly washed clothes. I
live in a block of flats and use communal washing lines but she checks out all the neighbours clothes and is always happy when the lines are full of washing. Is there a reason for this? |

She's a cat, that's reason enough.

Oh, and I happen to like the smell of fresh laundry, too. But don't expect to find me sniffing your neighbors clothes and sheets. Jill |

Cali loves sweet smells, laundry, perfume, shampoo (went whacky for Herbal Essences), but then she loves stinky shoes and smelly armpits too. |

It is the way she gathers the news - by smell. MLB |

Nina finds a pile of clean clothes warm from the dryer irresistable.
Folding and putting away the clean stuff is something of a battle with her around, as she has to burrow her way into the pile and bliss out kitten style, first, and she doesn't appreciate my making her nice toys disappear. However, being an indoor cat, she doesn't check out the neighbor's laundry, too. Melissa |

My clean but not-yet-folded laundry can sit in the basket for days, because every time I think to myself, "gee, I should fold and put away the laundry", someone's sleeping in it and looking too adorable to move. Yep, that's the ticket. Of course that's the reason I don't get around to putting it away. Joyce |

Jill My main impetus for putting clothes away is that the boyz always sit on the laundry in the baskets.

When I'm doing laundry I tend to be somewhat less than motivated When I take clothes out of the dryer I often fold them and leave them on the kitchen table. Harri Roadcat has therefor chosen the kitchen table as the official center of her domain. As soon as I open the dryer to take a load of clothes out, Harri appears immediately to start reclining on the freshly dried clothes as soon as they are available. |
