cats are surprisingly nonabsorbent for as soft as they are

[–] MrZee@lemm.ee 42 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You know how new towels don’t absorb water? It’s because there is some shitty fabric softener on them to make them feel really soft at the store. Wash them once or twice with vinegar (instead of laundry soap) to remove the softener and turn them into proper towels. The same technique should work for your cat.

Cats everywhere disapprove of this message.

Say that after giving a cat a bath and trying to dry them off.

Note to self, dry face first not balls.

Instructions unclear.
Cat is wet and I am bleeding from multiple swelling scratches.

This towel is warmer and bitier than usual.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

softer too. if not meant to be used, why so snarly?

Bullshit... I rub my wet hands all over my kitty.... Then wash and dry my hands.
