lagilman: coffee or die (Castiel Kitten of Thursday)

Things that should not be so funny but are, part the next (feline division)

Things I had forgotten:

for all their lives, the Kitten of Thursday and Boomer have been apartment cats. To them, the washer and dryer are things that live Elsewhere.

Not so, here.

Things I learned:

While the washer sounds a lot like the dishwasher, and so is mildly interesting but not terribly disturbing, the dryer is.... well.

Stage One: WHATTHEFUCKMOMWHATTHEFUCKISTHAT? starting nervously and hiding behind my legs.

Stage Two: ....cautious, crouched staring from a safe distance.

Stage Three: we have not been eaten, therefore we are ignoring it utterly.

Stage Four, when the buzzer goes off: HOLYSHITWHATTHEHELLASTHATMOMDIDYOUHEARTHATMOMPROTECTUS!

Poor babes! I am visualizing the "Rose is Rose" cartoon where the kitten is one giant ball of round fluff with claws, floating above the dryer. Rose is saying something like "There, there, the buzzer is loud, isn't it?"
