Aaawww Sophia- here is a happy kitty And I am sure your mom prefers this look to having only clean laundry.

As to Phred's Fred: it must be something with black kitties. I remember well when Sasvermont's Lucy went into the washing machine as a baby- Sas noticed early enough and nothing happened- but what a shock for her (Sas in this case, Lucy was all ok )
