Well, of course. That’s a cat’s natural bedding, clean laundry.

I’m led to understand that many (some?) fabric softeners have animal fat in them, which is offered as at least one reason that dogs and cats are attracted to them, and by extension clean laundry.
I don’t use fabric softener, and one of my dogs still loves to climb on top of a fresh pile of towels, completely disinterested in my intent to fold them.

Cats and dogs also have a sense of smell several times more sensitive than humans, so maybe that’s it.
And for cats at least, I always thought it was for the same reason they like sitting on paper. It’s something about how the smoothness feels.
And maybe the basket of laundry resembles a sleeping den/nest for them?

If those are fish in there, she may just be sampling the gazpacho.

I’m not sure if Dora is a cat or a raccoon.

You shouldn’t say stuff like that on the Internet - the cats can hear you! Dora’s a distinguished and experienced brown tabby. Here’s a better photo of her (and a worse one of Gus):

funnily enough, NO – we did buy them a little squeaky dog as a toy, hoping they would play with it and carry it around, but they were too wise. they took one sniff, and looked at us as if to say, “that is a DOG toy. we will NEVER play with it.”

Manny’s a weird little dude. He knocked the laundry basket over, so he could sleep in it. When I saw him, I had to check that he was still breathing because this position is ridiculous.
