A Quick Shopping Trip

August 22, 2020 By: Summer Samba28 Comments

Summer and her human have a quick shopping trip to the local pet store.

I’ve been stuck inside at home with all this hot weather. But finally it cooled down enough for my human to take me on a short trip to our local pet shop, the one that’s only a few blocks from the house. They usually only let one customer in the store at a time because of the pandemic, but with the heat, the store owner let me and my human come in while the other person was at the cash register.

I couldn’t wait to check everything out!

Of course one of my first stops was the cat toy section.

I also stopped by the cat litter to see if there was anything new. (We didn’t need any this trip.)

I even got petted by the customer who was in the store before us! She said that her cat wouldn’t walk on a leash, and he just laid down. My human said, “Stand a few feet away and wave some chicken in his direction! He’ll get up and walk over fast.” I have to say, that did work well with me!

Even though the check out counter had a barrier up, I still had room to check out some of the goods while my human was paying for the cat food we got.

Sometimes my human buys something new when we are shopping. This time she got some dental treats. They were new to the store too.

She even let me try one in the car… and I spit it out. Don’t worry, it turned out Boodie liked them. She even asked for seconds.

    I know I am the dog person, but Pooh does not like any of the dog tooth cleaning treats. What she does like is raw carrots. They are good for many reasons. Do cats eat carrots?

      Not that I know of. I do eat broccoli if it is given to me!

    Summer,
    At least you tried the dental treats. I’m SO happy that Boodie likes them.

    Summer, it looks like it was a fun trip. Tell your human to put turkey tendons on her shopping list.

    We’re glad you got to go out! We use Boxiecat litter, and you reminded our mom she needs to get some.

    You deserve lots of shopping trips. The pet stores
    probably wish you could come in every day. At least
    you got out again.

    I know the “turns up nose” thing. My dog looked at a Greenie I attempted to give her, looked at me, and if she talked at all, would have said. “That is not jerky. That is green. Pooh does not eat green unless it has salad dressing on it.” I think she thinks she is a cat.

    Omg…it looks like she had an amazing shopping spree. I love the one where her eyes look like they r lit up looking at the toys. What is her very favorite toy at home?

    It has cooled down some here as well. Glad you got to go shopping, Summer. Looks like you had a fun time! And I’m glad that the dental treat didn’t end up being a waste 🙂

    When I was a small child my parents sometimes took me and my sister to a toy store called Bargaintown. It later became Toys-R-Us. I bet you feel the same way I did in that toy store.
