Morgana's Toybox...  

My dogs know just one thing about their toy basket--root through it and scatter the toys everywhere! They don't stash things in there, I'm the only one that uses it for storage. I wish I could teach them to pick up their toys! They really need new ones, all their toys are old and tattered. I need to make them some new ones--Gus is so strong that most toys from the store don't even last a day.

I wash all the dog's bedding twice a week, I tell her it's time to get rid of the other dog that sleeps with her. I get another dog worth of hair each time I wash.
This way I keep the smell and the hair under control.

I wash my dog's blanket about once a week and she doesn't seem to mind. I keep it on the sofa she likes to sleep on because she made a hole in the sofa one time. I patched up the hole but it ruins the looks of the sofa so I keep it covered with the blanket. I just like to keep the blanket clean in case I have company. I don't have company too often but you never can tell when I might. Kathy.

I never wash their toys, but I do wash their bedding. My cats love the milk rings, the plastic that up pull of before you pop the top off of a milk jug. I let them play with them and they will put them in their toy box. Some times I will go behind they and throw a few away. How many do they really new?

Everytime i go through the Kat family toys. Bubba likes the toys better than the girls do. He keep taking the little catnip filled mice and doing i do not know what with them. Once i found where he had a bunch of them stashed ina pile. I didnt know cats did that. I put them back into the toy box but they soon disappeared again. I believe he may be eating them coz sometimes i never see them again. Or he may be stashing them everywhere. He meows loudly when he cant find them. He had a great big rat that i cant find anywhere either. Kitty will sleep on newly washed beds but if one of the others lay on it she will not go back to it till its washed again. She is mom to the other two an wont eat canned food from the same dish. She has to have her own dish and served last. Sissy and Bubba eat from the same double dish at the same time but any other time Sissy growls when ever Bubba comes near her. Who can figure them out.

The other roommate, J, picks up the cat toys when she cleans and we will find them, sometimes weeks later where she "puts" them (hides them more like it!)

was there her sh t that she may have done in it.. i dont like animals inside the house... isnt your house smelly for that.

I used to have to wash the dog toys once in a while but, since we got Dyna, none of them last long enough to need washing. Dyna has an old bedspread that she's *supposed* to sleep on and I wash that every couple of weeks. I don't think Dyna minds, but she does spend a lot of time sniffing it after I put it back down. She's either searching for her old smells or enjoying the new ones.

For the most part we are the cats' toys. They play with us and anything that they can make roll, or steal from us. They are also like the 900 pound gorilla, and sleep wherever they want to. Usually on something freshly washed, of course. I have to wash things that Tiger has slept on because he sometimes drools awfully. I have to use a lint roller or something where Creamery has slept, because he is a lovely fur coat with feet. Princess is neat and tidy and wants to sleep on human bedspreads. The colored ones make her look beautiful in her glossy black coat.

Its a good thing to wash your pet's bedding and things. I do it! My dogs like to wear clothes. Every morning when the alarm goes off they run to their basket and get what they want me to put on them. Yes its true. So I am always washing their tshirts and blankets. I think I must do a load every other week. That's alot for two small dogs. They dont seem to mind me washing their things. They do however get PO'd when I try to put their toys away. When we go to bed my yorkie Dunkin grabs a toy to sleep with everynight. I find that really know what is theirs and they protect it. Your cat seems to a very lucky kitty! Happy MyLotting my friend. dl
