The topic: Cats: gotta love ‘em

----------------------------------------------

So yesterday, after running the Catchall, I decide to change the bedding. And wash everything.  The mattress pad, all four pillows, everything.  I knew this would be an all day project.  Not changing the bedding, but washing it.  Two of the pillows are bulky, so I could only do one at a time and I did the pre-wash and extra rinse on just about everything.  So, each wash load was an easy hour and a half.  I wanted the stuff washed and put away so the baskets in the laundry room weren’t stuffed to overfilled.

I finally got the last load done about eight last night.  The bed was already made and the last load consisted of a couple of pillows we use between the mattress and the headboard, since the bed frame is about three inches longer than the mattress itself.  The cats like to spray the headboard, which is flat and it runs down and gets these pillows wet.  Which is why I’m glad they’re washable and why I use the pre-wash and extra rinse on everything.

So, I’m stuffing the pillows down and I notice a dark spot on the bedspread between the pillows.  I touch it.  It’s wet.  I smell it.  It’s cat pee.  I scream.  “Bloody cats!”  I pull the spread off, stomp down the hall, spread in arms and put it in the washer and do an express wash, no extras.  About an hour and a half later, it was dry and I put it back on the bed. 

Then I grabbed the Feliway bottle, that says you only need a spritz.  To hell with that, and I sprayed copius amounts along the headboard. 

I took a shower, Brian went to bed.  After my shower, I let my hair dry a little so it wouldn’t be soaking wet in bed (I rarely use heat on my hair, dryer or curlers because over time, they cause much damage).  When I went to bed, I was assaulted by the strong smell of Feliway.

Better than cat pee, I guess.
