The next day, everyone in town knew about the ‘mysterious’ package—and Mayfair Cleaners became famous for their cat-friendly policies.

Another had, 'Don’t worry, I won’t stain myself.' As he drove home, he chuckled, realizing that maybe these shirts were right—maybe they did know him better than he knew himself.
