Cat Treats & Laundry Don't Always Mix

WAFFLES:  Hey Boss? In case you were wondering, the Greenies aren't machine washable.

KATIE:  Waffles, what did you do?



WAFFLES:  Nothing?

KATIE:  Please tell me you didn't put the Greenies in the washing machine again.



WAFFLES:  I didn't put the Greenies in the washing machine again?

KATIE:  That crumpled and clearly EMPTY bag is looking awfully clean, Waffles. 

WAFFLES:  Maybe we should have used the gentle cycle. 



KATIE:  I've got your gentle cycle.

In another episode of "You Can't Make This Stuff Up" - Waffles puts a bag of catnip-flavored Greenies in the washing machine. How is this even possible? Following is the sequence of events that let to the unfortunate demise of a perfectly good bag of Greenies:

  1. While construction workers were ripping up our damaged walls and ceilings last week, Katie & Waffles needed to be contained in what used to be the Kitten Quarantine Room so there would be no chance of getting hurt or escaping. 
  2. Glogirly lured Katie & Waffles into the room by offering them what looked like handfuls of Greenies. She even shook the bag. 
  3. Once Katie & Waffles were distracted with the tasty free-for-all, Glogirly made a run for it. She had the bag of Greenies in one hand and shut the door with the other.
  4. The only safe and convenient place to store the bag of Greenies was inside the laundry closet, just outside the quarantine room. Probably so she could trick Katie & Waffles again the next time another worker showed up. 
  5. Later in the day, Katie & Waffles got a glimpse of the bag sitting on the edge of the washer in the closet while Glogirly was washing towels.
  6. A couple of loads later, Glogirly neglected to close the laundry closet doors completely. 
  7. And that's how a perfectly good bag of Greenies lands in the wash. The spin cycle probably did them in.

  7. Oh, the tragedy!!!

    Our cat treats have to stay behind a barred door for similar reasons, but none have actually gone through the laundry before.
