A Quick Stop at the Pet Shop

somali cat on leash in small pet store

Before my human went running off to her vintage film festival, we stopped at the pet shop to pick up some cat food. It was just the local store, and I always get to explore on my leash.

It took a couple of moments before I remembered my favorite part of the store.

The catnip toy section!

It’s so amazing, seeing so many fresh catnip toys all in one place! I mean, I can see almost as many catnip toys altogether at home, but they aren’t fresh.

I could just bury my face in these toys for hours, if I was allowed.

So I don’t understand why my human said I had enough toys and didn’t buy me any! I mean, really, could you turn down this face?

    That was cruel to let you sniff and whiff all those toys and then deny you even one. Sheesh.

    Your humom must have a ton of stamina and will power to resist that face:)

    Our catnip toys lost their freshness a while ago. What’s up with that? I see my favorite scratcher in the background there!

    It seems a bit rude that you weren’t able to get a toy. I mean, if you took your human to the ice cream store and told her she could look but not taste, I don’t think she’d appreciate that.

    Poor Summer. Our humans can be so very cruel sometimes. You are just lucky you get to go to the pet store. My human won’t let me go even tho I’ve asked. She said I’d get too scared with all the people there. Sigh!

    The Human says she’s apparently trying to save you from a humiliating appearance on “Help! My Cat Is a Hoarder.”

    Uh-huh. And if you buy that, you need more help than I can offer.

    Yeah. My Momma couldn’t turn that face … but she says “NO” to me regularly. They just don’t appreciate us! We need a support group … or to organize into some kind of feline rights union! ~Bear Cat

    Poor baby! We understand. New fresh nip toys are the best. Mom says we have too many toys too. What’s up with that? We think mom has too many purses but continues to buy new stylish ones. Humoms! MOL. Purrs
