A blue-gray Russian Blue cat and a tan lop-eared bunny nestle among warm towels in a wicker laundry basket. 17 / 39

Someone Had to Fold the Towels. Two Friends Had Already Moved In.

Fresh from the dryer, the towels have not even been folded yet. A blue-gray Russian Blue has claimed the top of the pile with her chin resting on the wicker rim and her vivid green eyes fixed on the room. Snuggled against her side is a sandy lop-eared bunny whose ears hang over a cream towel. Around the basket, a hallway full of slippers, a plant, and a stray sweater shows that the day's chores have been postponed. The heat of the towels seems to have won them both over.

Warm laundry is a famous cat magnet because it holds heat and smells like home. Russian Blues are often described as quiet, gentle and a bit shy with strangers, though they bond closely with their families. When you let pets nap in a laundry basket, check the pile first. Dryer sheets, detergent residue and loose threads can irritate paws and tummies, and small socks or buttons are choking hazards. A bunny might also chew fabric, so use plain towels that are washed without strong scents, and keep an eye out for any nibbling. Your vet can suggest safe bedding options.

Nobody seems bothered that the folding is on hold. A pile of toasty towels and a friend to share it with is a pretty great trade for a tidy hallway, and these two know it.
