Current mood: amused
For anyone who knows Mia, knows how attached she is her to special blankets. She has four of them altogether. She sleep only if she has one of these blankets and she goes nuts in the car without them. So we need to take them EVERYWHERE with us. Thank goodness she is attached the type of material rather than the specific blanket itself (we would be in big trouble if that was the case). She carries them everywhere with her and I truly feel shes is Linus incarnet! haha
Anyways, I am pretty up to speed with her laundry since she goes through so much. I always make sure, above everything else, her blankets are always cleaned and washed. I am constantly rotating between the 4 so she always has a clean one with her. However, lately I have been noticing that not long after I wash them they start getting this funky odor to them. Like pure STINK! I have no idea what is going on. Adrian has found the cat on them a couple of times and yes our cat stinks like dust all the time, but that wasn't the reason.. though it probably contributed to it. So I no longer have her blankets where the cat can reach them. Still after washing the blankets, less than a day later they REAK! again! It has been driving me nuts because I can't stand the idea of her cuddling with a stinky blanket!
Finally I think I figured out what is causing the smell. I recently washed her pink blanket and gave it to her. She started carrying it all over the place like always. I then gave her, her milk sipee for the morning and she took off with that too. Thats when I noticed that she was getting milk all over the place including her blanket! When I picked up her blanket it was not only covered in all sorts of crud from being drug along the floor but it had milk on it too!!!
The milk and floors are the culprit!!!! It makes sense now, before when I would clean her blankets she would only cuddle with it but since she started walking she drags them all over the place. Plus spilling milk on it doesn't help! Well now that I solved that mystery I realize there is no way of stopping her so I guess there is just one thing to do...
Load up on laundry soap because I am going to be doing a TON of laundry!!
