What’s in My Backpack?

July 22, 2021 By: Summer Samba25 Comments

Summer has a cute new accessory! So, what's in her backpack? Let's take a look.

Can you believe how fast summer is going? Before you know it, it’ll be time to go back to school! I’m ready, with my cute new backpack (I actually have three backpacks, but that’s for another blog post). At least, I think I’m ready, but I’d better see what’s in my backpack first!

Well, I’m not so sure about these things! They seem like they are a little dated.

The contents from the cat backpack

Here is a closer look, and we can go over them one by one.

#1. My lunch and bus money. Fifty cents! I mean, really? I can’t even buy cat treats with that. And fares here are $1.75, so even with a student discount I’ll be walking to and from school. My human was going to give me a Metro card, but it wouldn’t fit in the tiny backpack.

#2. My house key. At least this I need! Because we live in the city, the door is always locked, even when people are home.

#3. A tiny cat light. Well, I don’t know if I’ll need that, since I’m not allowed out after dark.

It does work, though!

#4. A USB drive. Like, a really, really old USB drive.

For one thing, I bet it doesn’t have enough memory to carry important things like photos and videos of me. For another thing, it doesn’t even work with my human’s Macbook anymore without an adapter.

#5. Post-It notes. But no pen to write on them.

#6. A Hello Kitty phone from the ’00s.

Seriously? This is a flip phone! It’s older than I am. It needs a new battery. Better yet, my human needs to go to the mall and get me a new phone altogether. A real one would be appreciated.

The contents of my backpack sorely need to be updated!

So what do you guys think? What should I be putting in my backpack? It’s been several decades since my human walked into a school so she is clearly out of touch! Leave me any suggestions in the comments.

    MOL that was so funny Summer, and the sparkly backpack is ridiculously cute! Pandora wants one now, but I told her it wouldn’t fit any of her weapons in it! MOL

    Adorable Sumner. All of it. Let’s see, cat treats, nip baggie, at least 10 dollars, mace for bad animals (and humans), new Iphone, up to date usb, brush and little lighted mirror. That takes care of a light. I think that does it. Maybe a little nip mouse for rec00ess such fun

    Oh, this is just adorable! Let’s see…. a catnip mouse, a ziploc bag of treats, and a comb and mirror. That should do it! P.s. Our mom went to home depot today to look for catnip seeds but they didn’t have any. She’s going to look on line and give planting a catnip plant indoors a try.

    Treats. You need some treats in there, because you will get hungry at school with all that studying.

    How about a collapsible water bowl, too? Plus, a small bottle of water. Those are always good to have with you.

    I do love your backpack!

    Maybe you could add a small comb or brush. Dare I say…..
    you could put in a small pack of nip? Also, maybe a very
    small pack of wipes. Cute backpack.

    Dearest Summer,
    Super cute back pack and that Hello Kitty phone is hilarious.
    If your Mom finds an updated one, that would be great.
    MacBooks don’t open their mouth to such USB drives directly but the little adapter, kept inside its sleeve with pockets, works fine!
    Hope you can get some included treats while at your destination otherwise you will collapse.
    Hugs,
    Mariette

    Cute backpack. We would dump everything and fill it with treats like Angels Eric and Flynn said.

    We think you need some catnip in there, a toy mouse, and some ID. What if you get lost and need help?

    That backpack can fit a lot of stuff but I think it needs some treats and nip and toys in it.

    I agree that your backpack needs updated items!
    You need treats and more toys ! Maybe a comb to keep your furs looking good.
    A newer phone in case you are far from home and need a taxi 😉
    Maybe a small blankie in case you need a nap.
    I suspect you will never be far from home without your person 😉
    Purrs, Julie
