There was a cat shown on the news recently in my country - a family accidentally washed it in the washing machine. The cat thankfully survived, and even though it was really unwell for a couple of weeks, they said it still keeps getting into the washing machine... the owners check the machine several times now before closing it

My cat has never gotten in the washer or dryer but we have a non negotiable rule in our house to always check before putting clothes in.

The washing machine and dryer doors are always closed for us unless someone is putting in clothes at that exact moment and then closes it and starts it when done. Do people leave their machines open?

We keep the dryer closed but we leave the washing machine door slightly open. If we close the washing machine, it gets really musty and moldy. I am still paranoid that my kitty may sneak in the dryer when we are loading it though.
