I had a special day! My human voted and I got to go along! She could have mailed in her ballot, but she wanted me to have an adventure so she dropped it off in person.
There were a bunch of places to choose from, but my human picked our local college campus. I’ve actually been there before when friends visited from out of town. It’s actually a famous college because a president went here for a couple of years.
I just want to say, I was the hit of the voting center. People were so excited to see me there! They loved seeing me and chatted lots with my human. Normally she would have been in and out, dropping off her ballot, but she got to be social, which she really appreciated.
I was in my sling while we were in the voting center. But when she finished dropping off the ballot, my human let me walk on my leash most of the way to the parking lot. It was awesome, getting some time out and about.
Best of all, there was an ice cream truck handing out free treats to the voters! My human offered me a bit of whipped cream but it tasted funny. (Apparently the whipped cream I’ve gotten at home is unsweetened, and in my opinion, much better.) Oh, I was a hit with the ice cream truck people too!
I really like this voting thing. I wish I could do it every week!

See all of Summer’s merch at her her Zazzle Designercat Shop
Great to see you both being so civic minded Summer
Well, that was an exciting outing! Our mom voted today and didn’t get to see any cats. Well, except for a community cat on someone’s porch.
Our mom would never eat whipped cream until she discovered she could make it at home without sugar. That ice cream sure looks good. Pretty nice treat for voters. Our humans voted a few weeks back. Mom sure wishes it was over. XOCK, angel Lily Olivia, angel Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy and Sawyer
What a fun day you had. So nice that you are such a sociable kitty. I would love to be able to play with you. Anyway, good for your human for voting.
What an excellent adventure! There was no icecream where I dropped off my ballot, but it was a good feeling nevertheless. And Allegra got a treat when I got home 🙂
Yay!!! Fun at the polls! I know people enjoyed your mom doing her civic duty!
Purrz!

That was like you were doing a therapy session, Summer…for all those peeps!! Hooray for a wee bit of normalcy in this topsy turvey world we are in right now:)
Yes you did your gorgeous Summer….
What a lovely life affirming adventure. You make everything so special sweetie
Yay for voting!!!!!
Sounds like you had a pawsome time and I am not surprised.
Most people like cats and I bet they were surprised to see you happily walking with a leash.
Cats are cooler than most people think 😉
Purrs, Julie
What an exciting adventure!!! I didn’t get free ice cream when I voted MOL!
Pawsome! We didn’t have anyone famous in front of town hall when Pop dropped the envelopes in the secure drop box and I couldn’t go. In Brooklyn, Paul Rudd was outside the Barclay’s Center handing out cookies to the voters. Pop said he would have preferred the ice cream.
Very good that your mum has voted.
I’m sure everyone at your voting site really enjoyed seeing you. My daughter-in-law bought me a treat for voting too; chocolate, but whipped cream sounds delicious too. Kudos to your person for taking you out and for voting.
What a great outing, and we’re sure that the people lining up were thrilled to see you!
We’re not even American but we know that #1 is watching tis election very, very closely
Purrs,
Tama and Genji
We have no idea whyt or how #1’s name came up rather than the blog’s! Sorry!
Yay for an outing and outing treats,xx Speedy
That is so cool that they gave out ice cream. We voted by mail, but hubby dropped off the ballots at the town hall- we didn’t even get the I voted sticker.
People must have been really excited and happy to see you at the voting center! I bet you made their day very special 🙂
I knew it. Everywhere you go…people want to
see you up close and be with you. Most people
want to touch you too I’m sure. Good for you,
another outing.
Good for you Summer, helping your human vote! I know your assistance was much appreciated!
Summer…if you’d been able to go by yourself…the lines would have parted to let you through to the first in line!
I’m sure you brought lots of smile at the voting lines, such a nice distraction.
Purrs,
Bodacious
How fun! Glad you helped out!
How adorable you are, Summer!
That super cool sweet Summer and we know you’d be a hit where ever you get to go!
So glad you got out and helped get that ballot turned in. It looks like you had a good time.
Good for you helping your human do her civic duty, Summer! And the ice cream was a great treat.
No sense to vote “every” week, but we might have wished you could’ve voted manymanymany times yesterday! Every vote counts ya know … glad you cast yours, Good Job! And of course the other voters apurrciated seeing you there!
Summer, you are such a beautiful girl…how could all those people not admire you??? So nice that you had a chance to go out and about and help your human with her patriotic duties.
I am glad you helped your human vote, Summer. It was nice that you got lots of attention.
You and your Mom are such good citizens <3
Hahaha. Perhaps you can come and help my Momma vote?! She probably can use all the help she can get! ~Bear Cat
