What Kind of Santa Visit Was This?

December 16, 2019 By: Summer Samba34 Comments

somali cat ready for her Santa visit

This was the strangest Santa visit I ever had! I do want to say that I followed the poll results and wore the outfit that won — my Santa Baby dress with the sparkly bow. So you guys can take the blame for what happened next.

They were selling my dress! Even though my human got it last year. It was in several different places throughout the store, increasing my embarrassment even more.

We had some shopping to do first, so my human let me look at the parakeets. They totally ignored me… like they always do.

Finally it was time to see Santa. In the dress that was on sale all over the store. How humiliating!

What was really odd was Santa was a girl! At least she was nice and agreed to sit on the pet beds with me so I didn’t have to try to sit in her tiny lap. Incidentally, the backdrop we sat in front of was green. I’m not sure what kind of trickery went into making the background you see here. My human said the backdrop was a “green screen,” but I’m not sure how that translates into a night sky.

In all, this was a really weird Santa visit.

    You still looked cute in the dress, at least you didn’t meet up another kitty with it on Summer.

    You should get a commission! Models should be paid!

    Aww Summer, you looked so wonderful in that dress. I think the store should have paid you as a model. Bet anyone who saw you in it went and bought it for their kitty. You were a good sport.

    Girl you rock that outfit. Bet the store sells lots of them. They should pay you for advertising for them.

    I think the store should pay you for modeling the dress. I am sure everyone wanted one after seeing you in it. And your Santa photo came out great. XO

    Sorry, Summer…we don’t CARE that your dress was on sale…you look too adorable in it, that they aren’t going to sell any of them because they know their pet cannot hold a candle to you!!!

    The dresses they were selling were knockoffs! You have made the dress famous. Perhaps Santa was a knockoff too.

    Well my dear, the thing is, you wear it so well that everycat everywhere will want to wear what you’re wearing! Like when a human celebrity shows up in something and all the sudden every store carries it! You’re just that famous, sweetie! Love the Santa picture!

    Oh no, that’s like showing up somewhere in an outfit only to see someone else dressed in the same thing.

    I can feel your embarrassment! How could you possibly know
    they would be selling your dress throughout the store?
    It could have been worse…if they accused you of putting the
    dress on from the rack when you arrived and wanted you to
    pay for it! But, you’re too dignified for that accusation.

    Huh. Well, that IS embarrassing. But you wear it better than anyone else could. The girl Santa though… No way!!!

    We’ll bet they sold a lot of those dresses after seeing how beautiful YOU looked in it. That Santa really was pretty strange.

    Oh Summer, this post made us laugh so hard! MOL, what a day you had. But you have to admit you sure looked great in that dress honey. And it appears everyone wants to rock the same look. You wore it best! And Wow! A lady Santa, pretty cool. That’s a really beautiful Christmas picture you took. We think all in all it was a Wowey great day. Purrs

    Summer, you were rocking that dress…much better than on the hangers. But we think it’s weird that Santa was a girl.

    The store should have given you a commission for modeling that dress, it had to have made them some sales having a celeb kitty wearing it in the store and looking pawsome! Girl Santa – hmmmm.

    That was embarrassing Summer. I agree You looked adorable though. No other cat could look as good. I’m surprised they used a tablet. It would seem the phone would be more likely, but…I guess not.

    We understand your embarrassment, but there is a huge difference between the dress in the store and your dress with you inside : it’s all about catitude, and all about cuteness, Summer, it’s absolutely not the same dress on you ! Purrs

    The dress is so pretty that they must have had a big demand for it. It is the same as a human going to a party and seeing someone else wearing the same as them. Don’t be embarrassed though, take it as a compliment for your good taste.
    The green screen sounds like a chroma photography background. I know what it is but is hard to describe so I am sure Mr. Google will be able to help your human out.
    They use it in weather forecasts so when the forecaster is pointing to the wrong place, it is because he isn’t seeing what the viewer sees.

    Oh Summer there’s no need to be embarrassed. Even though the dress was in the store, it’s how you wore it. Beauriful
