I’ve got a cute example.
Not cats, and not a dryer - but read on....
I spent a few years working in a plant that makes incontinence products. They tend to be soft. These machines do produce scrap, and you need to do something with that scrap. In some cases, the products that are out of spec get collected and baled up and sent to a 3rd world country, where they are manually picked through and marketed (think much lower income....)

In any case - the process to get these products ready usually involves big boxes of products. A “Gaylord” is a great means for conveying these scrap product throughout the plant. Those Gaylord boxes usually also have lids to keep dust and contaminants out of the product - even if it’s a ‘seconds’ product.
A Gaylord is appx. The size of a shipping pallet, and is roughly 3’ tall.
We used temp workers to prep the product - which basically meant putting the Gaylord on a tipper that fed a baling machine.
If a guy doesn’t want to work real hard, and maybe wants to take a nap instead of doing his/her normal job activities - a Gaylord full of product is a great place to curl up and take a nap. Especially when they can pull the lid over the box to keep that nasty light out.

Wouldn’t it have been horrible if, instead of finding this guy sleeping - he would’ve ended up in the compactor? Again - these are absorbent products. Nobody would’ve been the wiser until that bale of product got opened for sorting in Timbuktu - and the locals found a mess!

Fortunately, we found the guy sleeping and exited him from the premises. I’m sure glad he didn’t find himself ‘compacted’.

Just thought it was another version of the story - but replace cat with a human.
