A Pet Store Toy Story

May 2, 2019 By: Summer Samba50 Comments

somali cat in car, about to go to pet store

I got to go with my human to our local pet store yesterday! I love when I can run errands with her.

Can you guess the first thing I did when we went inside?

I made a beeline for the cat toy section, of course! I always love to whiff the new catnip toys. And guess what? My human found a fun toy for me to check out.

It doesn’t really look like much, but it was full of surprises!

It bounces around totally randomly, for a really long time. It’s almost like it’s alive! You can tell by my ears how fascinated I was by it.

My human was going to pick out one or two from the jar in the toy section, but then she saw they came in packages of three. So that’s what she bought me, along with the cat food we came for.

My human is cheap, and she hardly ever gets me toys when we visit the pet store. So this was really awesome! When we got home and she gave me one, I kept grabbing it in my mouth by the feathers and tossing it around. I love this toy!

    I have a similar toy that’s a jingle ball with feathers that Auntie gave me for xmas one year. When I started eating the feathers Mom took the toy away from me. She shut them up in a dresser drawer. I hope you get more time with your toy than I did with mine! Luvs.

    I can tell you are excited with your new
    purchase. With three of them, they
    should last a while. Good for you.

    They ARE goofy looking!

    What a fun looking toy! I may have to see if I can find some for my girls. They have little or no interest in catnip toys. No idea why. I bought some of the spray to see if they would prefer that and nope, nothing. But they do love Da Bird toy.

    Looks like a fun time at the pet store. Where you high from all the nip when you got home. Maybe Django needs to take a trip to the pet store, I think we might need some of those toys they look like fun.

    Hoo-Boy, you WERE excited. Looks like a neat toy. I am attempted to get them for my cats but they probably won’t play with them – my cats are SO not toy oriented – slugs!
