Several years ago my human got a horrible “festive” collar — and then promptly forgot about it. It wound up under a bunch of stuff on her desk and she didn’t find it until recently, when she began trying to clear up the mess that she calls “work.” By the time she found the collar, it was so old, the elastic was gone.
That was $5.99 wasted! Or so I thought. My human was undaunted.
Since it was clearly too big for me, she tried to put it on Binga. Not only was Binga unhappy about this, the collar was too big for her too.
She even tried putting it on the dog, but that was a waste of time because no one could even see it.
Seeing her dreams of a holiday photo op going to waste, she decided to try to get it on me once more. I pretended the thing didn’t exist. Unfortunately it did exist, and she managed to get it around my neck.
I dashed off and led my human all over the house, only pausing… you know where! Maybe she should put this on a card.
She could caption this one, “Clean up on aisle one.”
Bye-bye, stupid, misshapen Christmas collar. Don’t let the trash can lid hit you on the way out.

MOL! Oh dear… your Mom cornered you at the litterbox? Very sly of her!
Oh, Sparkle. Your ‘tude makes me laugh out loud. Also, your human has some serious persistence!
Holy Cod it’s a horror show!!
Oh poor Sparkle. First your human expects you to wear a dawg collar, then has the gall to take a pic of you wearing it while purrforming a most “private” function. How / why do you put up with her? If our human tried to do anything remotely like that to us we would ……….we’ll talk later, Sparkle. Guess who just came into our office.

Poor Sparkle, the indignity! Not only did she try to make you wear that collar, she even took a photo of you in the litterbox.
Sparkle, You have a definite flair for putting fashion EXACTLY where it belongs, MOL!
Sparkle, we needed a laugh today! That was funny! We’re glad the collar is where it should be now – and should’ve been all along!
heeheheheheheeeeheeeeeeeee
oh that was a good one Sparkle.
You had the last word on that one and it was a great one.

Oh theese one is a good one! We agree that would make one FUNNY holiday card!
I think your human should go ahead and get you a collar just like it that fits. But that’s the human in me talking. We just can’t resist dressing you guys up for the holidays.
Wow, running to the litter box when Mommie gets out the flashy box – what an excellent idea – thanks, Sparkle!
Oh Sparkle, you crack me up!
Oh Sparkle!
Did yous lacerate the pawparazzi for getting a picture of you doing your business? Me would!

Your whole ordeal with the Christmas thing for your neck was not funny at all but boy did I get a chuckle.
Oh my giddy aunt, that picture of you in the litter box – especially the look on your face – is classic! What a thoughtful gift you left for your human in appreciation of the collar 😉
Sparkle, I think you looked fabulous (although I have been known to dress up a kitty or 2 in my time so I might be biased)! I am sorry you didn’t like the collar but your human only wanted a fabulous holiday photo.
Hahameow! Purrfect place fur the hideous thing! Now, haf a pawsum day!
Good place for that collar. Your mom will have to think of something better for a photo op. Maybe you napping under the tree.
We are so glad mom doesn’t try this with us – though she did say she thought the collar looked very nice on Binga. 🙂
Umm… wearing it in the litter box for a photo op certainly makes a statement.
It is a flattering color for you…..
MOL !
Sparkle! Did you EVER do the right thing “posing” in the litterbox! YES! Your hooman *should* use that on a Xmas card! And the expression on your face – priceless. I’d have had a very similar look, I think, were my MomKatt stupid enough to try that on ME.
(No offense, but ya’ll’s dog looks like he/she would be happy to wear ANY silly holiday collar one chose! MOL No pride, I tell ya … )
PURRS!

Hey, I think you look stunning in it! Want my chicken hat?
Wow, how LUCKY that your mom forgot about that long enough for it to be unusable! Score!
😯 Oh the indignity of that collar ~ put the bitey on it for sure! xx
We think you should have put the bitey on the collar before putting it in the litter tray.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
The only thing that collar is good for is whapping! It coulda made a great toy!!
Two things:
1. I am inspired to clean off my desk. – Jobi
2. Atta boy, Sparkle! – Fisher
Thanks fur the laugh! The collar belongs in the litter box!
Oh my COD that was so funny. Too darn funny. I do think you in the litter box would make such a great Xmas card. Especially the comment. Clean up on Aisle one. Thanks Sparkle for that great laugh.
We are glad our human does not get ideas for us to wear colors. Glad you were able to junk that thing, Sparkle! We think it looked best on the big woofie because it was least noticeable.
That was a brilliant holiday photo foul up, Sparkle. Well done! 🙂
It seems perfect for Litterbox attire! hahahaha!
PS. Looks like someone gets up as early as I!
You would be wrong there – we were just getting ready for bed!
I have the solution ! your mom should wear it herself ! But I have to admit you look great with it.
We are SO truly sorry you hadda wear that. Is it possible ta bury it deep in the litterbox?
Oh, Sparkle….OMC, we’re almost laughing too hard to type. That photo of you in the litter box…It would make a GREAT holiday card for the humour section!
