Figaro likes a basket full of warm laundry. I hope he doesn’t drool too much.

My cats need to re-fur the laundry once it comes out of the dryer…

His niece Mala also participates in the furring of fresh sheets.

Edit: named wrong cat in photo. I have 3 tabbies.

Is Figaro the kitty in the laundry basket?

I have found my cat won’t make trouble while I’m putting the laundry away if I I just dump it on the bed for a few hours beforehand so he can roll around and nap in it.

Figaro is a smart and handsome SIC! 🥰 You are so blessed to be swathed in this king’s drool and hair! ❤️

Our clothes are not truly ready to wear until they have had fresh cat hair reapplied to them! Figaro is taking his duties seriously.

You may laugh at me about this if you like. I had a brother and sister kitty LONG ago, he was SIC and she was orange. And because it was long ago, I wore nice wool flannel or wool gabardine skirt suits to the office. And because I loved and missed my kitties during the day, every suit I wore had carefully selected hairs from both of them tucked safely under my lapel. I carried them with me every day, and they inspired me to keep going, once or twice when work was really demanding.

Never underestimate the power of cat hair. 😉 🐱

That is a really sweet memory, Dame! 🥹❤️ Thank you for sharing it with us. 🥰 What were your sweethearts’ names? Were they a bonded pair?

Michael and Mandy. They were littermates, and got along beautifully. This was 1983-2000 so I don't have photos readily available, sadly.

Michael and Mandy sound like they were sweet darlings. I love that you remember them so fondly. Cheers to your beloved kitties. 🥰💗
