That New Shoe Scent

May 6, 2010 By: Sparkle Cat20 Comments

Like many females, we all have a passion for shoes. My human likes to buy them and put her feet in them. We cats like to put our feet all over the packaging. There’s nothing like that fragrant, fresh-shoe smell! So imagine our delight when my human bought three pairs of shoes the other day! They are all the same — zebra print ballet flats — only different colors. (Don’t tell her we told you, but they were very, very cheap, which is why she bought so many.)

That fresh-shoe aroma is almost as intoxicating as catnip!

Trust me, you haven’t lived until you’ve nibbled on tissue paper from a shoebox.

And no, it does NOT taste like chicken.

Boodie was in crinkly paper heaven.

There's nothing like the rustle of tissue paper in the morning.

That was fine by me — I had something else I wanted to try on.

I wonder if it will fit?

Hmm. Might be a little roomy. Maybe I need a narrower width.

It is not a terribly fancy box, but it will do for casual wear.

If the box fits, wear it.

    Oh, we love crinkly paper, shoe boxes, AND new shoes! Victor rolls around on any shoes Mom’s been wearing, especially leather. He looks like he gets a catnip high!

    Actually shoes are our favorite toys. We like to race them and scatter them all over the room.

    There is no such thing as a bad box or inferior crinkly paper. It’s all good! Have fun!

    We love a good shoe box. Even if we can barely fit in it, we find a way!

    Wow, you guys are having such fun! I may have to buy some new shows just to get photos of Livvy’s play!

    BTW, with a pearl necklace or nice sparkly pom-pom, that box could definitely be used for more formal wear, i think.

    We love boxes especially to hide in and then jump out on human feet as they walk by.

    For a species that generally likes things to be quiet, cats make an AWFUL LOT OF NOISE when they find packaging they like!

    When we get new toys, we would much rather play with the tissue paper that they come in. We do enjoy the toys but the paper and the box are so much fun. That box that you are in Sparkle is a perfect fit for you. Great hiding place.
