The useful part

Wash day is not wash day if your cat is not sitting on the laundry basket, turning it into their new bed. Our laundry assistants don't understand how to separate colors, but neither do most humans. Scroll down to spend wash day with 23 feline supervisors taking a nap on your warm pile of clean clothes.

How it works

  • Cats peer through the round door, watch clothes tumble behind the glass, and occasionally climb into the empty drum to investigate where all the socks disappear.
  • Their hoomans know to check the machine carefully before starting a cycle, but these curious inspectors remain convinced that wash day could not proceed safely without them.
  • Whether they contain dirty clothes, clean towels, or absolutely nothing, cats will find a way to occupy them.
  • If there are several baskets available, your cat will inevitably choose the exact one you need.
  • You may have spent twenty minutes arranging everything into neat piles, but your cat sees a collection of warm, comfortable beds prepared especially for them.

Details worth keeping

Of course, cats believe they are helping throughout the entire process. The washing machine naturally requires a thorough inspection. At least their nap will be exceptionally cozy.
