A young boy, about eight years old, was at the corner grocery picking out a box of laundry detergent.
A grocer walked over, and, trying to be friendly, asked the boy if he had a lot of laundry to do.
"Oh, no laundry," the boy said, "I'm going to wash my sister's cat."
"But you shouldn't use this to wash your cat. It's very powerful and if you wash your cat in this, he'll get sick. In fact, it might even kill him."
But the boy was not to be stopped and carried the detergent to the counter and paid for it.
About a week later the boy was back in the store to buy some candy.
The grocer asked the boy how the cat was doing.
"Oh, he died," the boy said.
The grocer, trying not to be an I-told-you-so, said "I tried to tell you not to use that detergent on your cat."
"Well," the boy replied, "I don't think it was the detergent that killed him."
"Oh? What was it then?"
"I think it was the spin cycle!"
