Visiting the Local Pet Shop

June 1, 2019 By: Summer Samba36 Comments

somali cat visiting the local pet shop

My human and I stopped by the local pet shop to buy a couple of things! She actually had errands to run where I couldn’t accompany her, but she made a special trip with just me.

Of course I stopped by the cat toy section!

There were some new toys to check out, including this carrot. But I didn’t get to keep anything.

I had to pose for the paparazzi, but I didn’t mind!

When we were checking out, I jumped on the counter to see what they had stashed up there. There were quite a few interesting smells!

What do you mean these are for dogs only? That is so not fair!

    Yeah, they should keep cat treats on the counter! That look on your face though, looks like you’re saying “what the heck are they feeding dogs? P. U!”

    It was thoughtful of your human to make a trip just for you. Cupcake always gets annoyed to find she has missed a visit to the pet store. How can humans shop alone there?

    Summer, I as of yet to see a kitty in a pet store. That carrot is very unique. I wonder if kitties find it fun. I read about your movie. It sounded like a fun and interesting experience.

    Pretty Summer, in the picture with the carrot toy, your hair looked shorter, and I thought she was an Abyssinian Cat!

    You always go for those barnyard catnip toys. I wish your human would let you get one 🙂

    I feel your frustration, Summer. Whenever I go into pet stores, the doggies have a fantastic selection of treats, toys, everything! The kitties always get the short end of the stick. There are more offerings than there used to be…but it does not compare because it is still a dog-centric world out there. HISS!

    You are so beautiful and curious as a cat should be! I find it hard to believe your mom wouldn’t buy you a new toy, especially since you let her take your picture so nice! I love to watch cats in stores–only see a few at PetSmart now and then.

    You are exactly right. A kitty should have whatever they
    want – if it’s safe for them. No wonder the other customers
    want your picture – they probably want to touch you too.
    You have been so busy with therapy visits, cat shows and
    movies……I’m glad you have some down time.
