The cats are not displeased. They pee because they know the clothes DO NOT BELONG THERE. My Barbara cat pees on all clothes, towels and shoes left on the bathroom floor. He is my ally. He has managed to accomplish in one year what I was unable to do in 5 years of asking, reminding, cueing, nagging, picking up, cleaning, pleading, and asking pretty please please please. I can see my bathroom floor instead of mildewed towels.  
If I had known that was all it took, I would have peed on them myself.

> When I was a kid, my mom said not to touch feathers you find outside, BIRDS CARRY DISEASE! I’m still paranoid about that. Then what do I see in a photo from mom’s camping trip? Her with a big-ass feather stuck in her hair. Her excuse? “I was protecting you as a kid–I’m an adult and can choose to take a risk.” I don’t even want to know if it was an eagle feather she was legally banned from having.

I’m kind of paranoid, too. I don’t remember my mom saying anything explicitly about birds but I tend to give pigeons a wide berth. Birds are always getting a bad rap, eh?

If you’re having problems with dirty laundry, I suggest turning to violence. Kick them. Kick them when they’re up. Kick them when they’re down. Kick 'em all around…
