    I workout pretty much every day & I throw mine in the washer every few days & rinse off after every workout...Otherwise I think it stinks & occasionally it won't read my heart rate. In fact, it's in the washer right now. I put it in a netted bag & throw it in w/ colors.

    Edit to add, I've been doing this for a good year now.

    Is your cat a British blue? I have a British Blue who likes to sit the exact same way!
    I couldn't tell ya. He's my "big boned" 23lb baby that my mom found walking around town when he was 6mo old & had a sore foot (like it had gotten stuck in a trap or something). So I "adopted" him.

    Eep! I've been hand-washing mine. Then again, I'm in an apartment with dodgy washing machines so I don't think I'm going to start putting it in the machine. I might hand-wash it a bit more vigorously, though.
