My Pet Expo Celeb-Kitty Weekend

April 29, 2019 By: Summer Samba37 Comments

I think this was my biggest weekend yet as a celeb-kitty! I am not benched with the cat show cats at all. I was in the other half of the hall with the sponsors and vendors.

My human brought one of my beds from home, and it was a very comfy place to hang out. Here I am at the Winn Feline Foundation Booth.

Across from the Winn booth was the Dr. Elsey’s and TICA booths.

TICA had some of their fancy show ribbons on display.

I also spent a lot of time at the TICA booth, greeting people.

They were giving away a Sleepypod, and they had one for all the entries. Of course, I had to try it out. My human kept having to tell people I wasn’t part of the prize.

My favorite spot to greet attendees was behind the TICA and Dr. Elsey’s booths. Moshow the cat rapper was using it as his meet and greet space, but when he wasn’t there, I took advantage of it. It was awesome. People just assumed I was a celeb-kitty. Which, of course, I am!

My human got me a new dress from a vendor that she bought a dress from last year. It goes really well with a hat I recently got from an Etsy seller. It’ll be a nice ensemble for Halloween!

I also got to go back to the Catit area. I’m really embarrassed to admit I could not figure out this treat puzzle! My human couldn’t believe it because I am so good at using my paws otherwise.

When I visited these pet carrier people, they invited me to sit in their carrier! I rather liked it, and stayed there for a while. Of course lots of people wanted to photograph me.

This was a great weekend! I met all sorts of nice people, got to explore, and got lots more followers on Instagram, thanks to the video with Moshow!

    You brought the sunglasses! I also love the Goth outfit. You are a real celebrity! I’d love to win a Sleepypod even if you weren’t included. MOL! Actually TW would. I don’t feel the need for PTUs.

    Best. Pics. Of. You. EVER!

    That black outfit rocks! Though I couldn’t really wear it since I’m black already. MK could do the adult version, though. She’s into that semi-Goth thing … skulls etc.

    As long as one of them isn’t a KITTY SKULL!

    Purrz!

    Sorry about the lack of visiting. We have been on a cruise for 2 weeks and the internet was almost non existent.

    Great job! You should get modeling fees (at least treats) from all the companies you took photos with. You are so cute in your Spring dress but love the hat and new outfit.

    back isn’t sore from all the petting you must
    have received.

    What a Pretty Cat you are!!

    Everybody at the show should be fully aware of who Somali Cats are, and how beautiful the breed is! (I got to see two beautiful Somalis at a smaller show in Monroe, Washington this weekend)

      Lucky you – they are so hard to come by and it’s unusual to see them at shows. I love all cats but Somalis have a special place in my heart.

        Totally agree! The Human for the Male Ruddy and Female Red Somalis that graced us this past weekend in Monroe, Washington were a sight to behold! Like Pretty Summer, they always had that “closed eyes, relaxed and contented look, and usually sitting in the King/Queen Pose.” Seeing Somalis in person, you see just how silky and smooth their fur is!

    Oh My Cod! The Spring dress? Super. That hat, that hat! I’m dyin’ here, I love that hat so much. All the photos are great and if you (and your human) don’t get some kind of professional gig out of all this I really have to wonder what the heck is wrong with the marketing departments of these companies!

    Summer, you are on your way to stardom! You look so beautiful in your new dress. It was purrfect for the occasion. What a great time you had. And that’s pawsome that you got to “test drive” so many cool carriers and such. You are the perfect model! Purrs
