Pet Store Caturday

April 7, 2018 By: Summer Samba36 Comments

somali cat behind bars

Oh no! I got thrown in jail for trespassing!

Ha-ha, just kidding! I’m with my human at the pet store, shopping for cat food and a couple of other necessary things.

Shopping for food for Binga is always a little tough. She likes one particular food, but my human occasionally tries something new, just in case the formula of her regular food gets changed or they stop making it.

somali cat upset that pretty dress is not in her size

We saw a super-pretty dress, but there wasn’t one in my size! I was kind of upset about that.

I did get to wander around on my leash and visit with people. That’s something I always enjoy doing!

We also stopped by the cat toys, which is one of my other favorite things to do.

Believe it or not, I rejected this cat toy! My human sniffed it and she understood why — there was no catnip in it.

When we went to the checkout, I did something new — I jumped on the counter! One of the employees came over to pet me. I had no idea checkout could be so much fun.

I don’t think this employee was really trying to find my barcode, but it sure looks like it.

That was lots of fun! Let’s go back and buy some more stuff!

    My sister has the same problem with dresses, they never have her size. I’m glad you weren’t really arrested, I was counting my pennies to bail you out. ; )

    Super photos especially the second one and the last one. I think it must be so fun for your human to be able to take you everywhere with her.

    Buying stuff is aways fun! And this settles it… you just need your very own dressmaker, that’s all. Then everything will always be in your size.

    And, why do cats look so cute when they rest their chins on someone ir something?

    I wish daedae loved to shop like you. You would look so cute in that dress. By the way, what size do you wear?

    I am so sad I won’t be able to see and pet you at Blogpaws this year. I will be watching to see what your recommendations are. You have been spot on for items that my kitties loves.

    Molly Mew always ask if it is a summer approved product when I bring new things home. 🙂

      I am an XS usually, at least in most of PetCo sizes. The sizes vary more at PetSmart and other places. I’m not a very big cat – I’m only about 6-1/2 pounds or so.
