George Goes to the Twicnic
This cool cat I know, George, (also one of the prettiest cats I know) recently attended a Twicnic (a twitter-related picnic) with his person, Abby. He sent me this cool footage from the Twicnic - check it out:
George’s day in the park reminded me of how easy it is for me to get distracted when outdoors and wander off, or worse yet, to get frightened and hide somewhere very well-hidden. (Which is quite a pain for our “persons” when they are ready for us to come back indoors.) If you’re a city cat like me and George, it can be troublesome when we want to go outdoors and are worried about getting hit by giant spinning rubber wheels or chased by ferocious and nasty, ugly dogs. [ugh. dogs.]
It’s a good thing George’s person, Abby, did the smart thing by buying a cat harness and cat leash. The harness is necessary because if a person was to simply put a leash on a cat collar, the cat would have a high probability of strangling itself. I know this because I’ve been there! Fortunately I had a safety collar on that broke, and I was able to get loose. My person is an idiot sometimes.
Anyway, the next time you city cats want to take a walk in the park or go to a Twicnic, tell your person you would like a cat leash and cat harness, so they will be more likely to allow you the freedom of the great outdoors.
What’s your favorite thing to do outside?
