How to Wash your Pusheen

When you eat too much dinner and barf on your Pusheen in the night, obviously you would not consider throwing your Pusheen away. You need to wash your Pusheen.

When you google "how to wash a stuffed animal" you will find out that you should put it in the laundry on the delicate cycle. However, you may not know which cycle on your washer IS the delicate cycle.

I don't even know which one of these is the regular cycle.
I just push buttons until it starts.

In this case, you can wash your Pusheen by hand! In a few simple steps!

Step 1: Soak your Pusheen. Use clean, cold water. Preferably from a well. In Sweden.



Step 2: Scrub your Pusheen. Use a mild detergent.

I think this is mild detergent, because the bottle is small?
And google translator says one of the words is "fragile"? 

Step 3: Squeeze your Pusheen.



Step 4: REALLY SQUEEZE YOUR PUSHEEN!



Step 5: Rinse your Pusheen. If the water is cold enough to numb your fingers, you're doing it right.



Step 6: Hang your Pusheen in the sun to drip dry. Set your Pusheen in your shower to drip dry.



If you are unable to sleep, because Pusheen is not available, you might like to try Hateen.

Meet Hateen! Like Pusheen, only made of a hat!

Hateen is made by stuffing your mom's softest hat with your mom's softest shirt. You can snuggle this at night while you wait for your Pusheen to dry.

  1. I'm guessing it's a lot funnier to retell this than it was to actually bring there. 😉😏

  2. It helps that when I did this wash I had already scrubbed her to death in the middle of the night on our ski trip. She just still smelled funky, so I did a more thorough bath, as detailed here. PS She still smells bad! Even after all that!
