Photo Hunt: Foreign

March 6, 2010 By: Sparkle Cat29 Comments

My human’s boyfriend recently spent six weeks touring Europe with one of his bands. While they were in Germany, he picked up a gift for my human. I don’t like it.

I want this vile, nasty thing to leave my presence NOW!

It’s a Dead Cat Purse. Can you blame me for hating it?

Worst.Idea.Ever!

It doesn’t even smell good. Believe me, I gave it a real good whiff. As an idea and as a smell, it stinks either way.

Can you tell how I'm trying very hard not to get too close to it?

Naturally, my human’s boyfriend thought it was funny. I do not think it’s funny at all! And I would like it out of my sight immediately, if not sooner.

This photo session is officially OVER!

    Goodness me, I would never even think about making a purse shaped like a cat! Your human’s BF has a funny sense of humor :-p

    pee es — please tell your human that I really appreciated her comment. We cat people have got to stick together!

    Since I’m not a cat, I kind of think it’s funny too, but in a very sympathetic way. I wonder what a human might think upon seeing a dead human purse. Maybe the same as you to this one.

    haha that’s one interesting gift :). Not sure if I would carry it out with me, but it sure looks like a cat to us, humans. I doubt my kitties would think it looks like a cat. after all, You guys see the world diff from us. My kitties often tell me that they don’t get certain things I do because they find them silly.

    Those X’s for eyes look kind of creepy to me, I don’t like it much either.

    Dead Cat Purse! That’s very fitting.

    I doubt I’d carry it, myself, but… yeah. I can totally see some dude in a band thinking it’s too good to pass up. Which means it just might appear in some fiction one day…

    Oh Sparkle! What a horrible purse! Really bad taste. I fully understand your feelings! Would they wear a purse that looked like a dead human??
    But, cheer up! You made another great post out of this unpleasant situation!
    Best wishes,
    Anna
    P.S. Sara Cat took the day off, but she sends her regards with purrs and noses-taps.

    Sparkle, you make your disdain for foreigner’s objects look beautiful. You should be on a Paris runway. Maybe in place of that old bag?

    We’ll never understand humans. They find the oddest things funny.

    You are so right Sparkle. That is creepy and horrible. If we were you, we would shred that thing in just two minutes. And just think how much fun you would have doing it. We would be upset too. Or maybe just drag it somewhere.

      @Mrs. Mecomber I DID visit your Photo Hunt (how could I ever forget that cat mummy?), and even commented! It must have gotten tangled up and lost in the interwebs.

    Again this is one of those themes that can easily take so many directions. Yours is very clever and perfect for the theme. If I carried a purse I’d want one like that.

    Thanks for dropping by my blog and I hope I see you again soon.

    LOL – Dead cat purse. Tell me Sparkle, does your human like the dead cat purse gift?? I am curious now. You could do what my cat Tippy does and eat parts of it rendering it useless as a purse. I’ve had to throw out many things due to that. Think about it???? It works.

    What a great post. I don’t blame you, it isn’t funny, is it! And to have it smell bad on top of everything else! Persevere!

    Don’t complain, Sparkle. My human actually TOOK me to Germany with her. On the other hand, I do enjoy sleeping on her backpack that came over with us.

      @Nigel I think if my human tried to take me out of the country, I would wind up looking like that purse.

      @Rumblepurr Well, fortunately, she hasn’t replaced her regular purse with it. That’s a good sign.
