The cats are not happy with me

Went to Costco today, and saw the bin filled with sheepskin throws. I
thought, "Cool! The cats will LOVE this!" So I put a brown one in my basket.

I had two guys tell me it looked like a bear. I agreed, and told them I
caught it trying to eat the rib-eyes back in the meat department, and I
had to strangle it with my bare hands.

Well, the cats must have been listening, because Apache was terrified,
and maybe traumatized when I brought it inside. She refused to sit on it
when I brought her over to the couch where I had laid it.

Miss Emily, when I showed it to her, jumped off onto the coffee table,
and said she wanted back outside NOW, if that thing was in the house.

Little Feet ignored it. The only brave cat in the house was Little Boy,
and he only sniffed it and walked away.

I have obviously moved to an entirely new level of cat-abusing thug.


Hugs and Purrs,
Mark

I would guess that Costco treated it with weird chemicals for storage.
Once they've evaporated or been washed out the cats should start taking
an interest.

Either that, or Costco is good at allowing returns.
Just tell them that your cats did not like it ;-)

Seriously, you should write a book. Your cat stories are so entertaining!

Yep, a run through the wash should help. Then, fresh out of the dryer,
nice and warm and I'll bet the cats would love them.

Cats have a keen sense of smell and washing it could help.
