Waffles Wednesday: PetSmart Field Trip III and Giveaway Winners!

Um hi everybuddy. Waffles here.

Yesterday I got to go on a field trip! Me and Glogirly met up with Spaghetti Bob's human at PetSmart. This is my third field trip and Glogirly said I did really good.

I'm trying out a new kind of harness to see how I like it. It's lighter than my other one and lets more of my furs show so people can admire and pet them. But it looks like a GIRLY harness. I think I need something way more manly, don't you?


Here I am in my cool Sleepypod carrier. Glogirly puts it inside the shopping cart and opens it way up so I can get up and look around whenever I want.


Or I can hunker down when one of those dog things comes by. I'm not so sure about the dog things yet. I mean they have four legs and all, lots of fur. But they look pretty strange.


Mr. Rat from my last field trip must be living in his new forever home. But I met his cousin, Mr. Mouse.  I think he was a little bit scared of me. I was hoping he'd invite me in for lunch.



I don't really know if this is a Mr. Mouse or a Mr. Rat, but he's running like mad. Do you think he knows he's not going anywhere?


I got out of my shopping cart a couple of times, but it's still a little scary. I climbed around on the shelf with the cat toys though. And played hide and seek behind the wand toys and feathers.

Oh, and I was super brave in the car too. I chattered the whole way there while Glogirly sang songs to me. And then I laid down and rested the whole way home. Shopping is hard work!

love,
Waffles

  1. Looks like you did great! I don't have a cat any more, so I love when people bring their kitties into the pet store where I work. Most of them aren't too happy to be there though, unfortunately. And I've yet to meet one on a leash!

  2. I don't think the harness is girly at all. You are orange and the harness is purple, very much like Clemson University Tiger colors.

    By the way, I had a harness like that, but it was pinchy on me and I did not like it one bit. I skwermed out of one of the typical harnesses one time too. Me and harnesses just don't get along.

  5. Hey I think you look great in purple. Main thing is that you are doing so well in your harness. I am truly impressed! Can't even imagine taking my guys out like that. Out of the four...maybe Lucy...maybe. And as to the mouse, who are you kidding? You were probably hoping he WAS lunch!

  8. I think it is awesome you get to go on adventures to PetSmart, Waffles! Maybe next time, Glogirly will let you pick out the food and treats!

  9. Waffles, you are my idol. I wants to be a big ginger boy and go to the PetSmart, but I'm just not ready yet mom says. She gots me a harness from there, she said it was big kitty sized, but I thing it was really from the woofie section. But I don't care. It is royal blue and fits really good and the color is great with Ginger fur. It would be my dream that you and me and Quint Cole could all meet up and have a Ginger boys play day! Dex

  11. Great harness, Waffles! Amelia just got a lovely purple one like it last week. We have tried exactly no outings in it yet unless you count walking from the stroller, up the stairs of the porch, to the front door the day we bought it! Maybe your photos will inspire her to put it one again...

  12. You are SO brave Waffles, and so is Glogirly.

    Our Mommy says she could never schlep us 1/2 hr down the road with all that caterwaulin. MOL!

  15. Way to go, Waffles!

    Looks like mice have the same amount of manners as birds.

  16. You're doing awesome in your training, Waffles. Perhaps Glogirly knows some human that lives with a doggie that is comfortable with feline friends. It might be a good field trip to introduce you to doggies without the pressure of meeting stranger doggies. Remember, always be cautious with any doggie or even kitty and human strangers. This is where I always tell my young humans, better safe than sorry!

  17. Waffles, we think you did great at PetSmart. And your new harness isn't girly looking at all!

  18. Looks like brave Waffles is doing great on his outings. I'm so happy that we won the stress stopper packages. Maybe I can get our Mickey Mouser to go out in public someday.
    Thank you!

  20. I love reading about your shopping trips, Waffles. I sure wish you could travel to my Petsmart so I could meet you and your mommy!

    Truffles can't wait to get her Sleepypod :)

  21. You look much more confident on this trip, and we don't think your harness is Girly. Purple is for men too.

  22. Congratulations to the winners. We agree with Chey on the trip though. We like it just fine here at home.

  25. We think we all would be really afraid, but you are so lucky to get to go on outings other than just to the V-E-T. Tell your Mom that all these photos are so SUPER GREAT. The new harness doesn't look as comfy to us, but we don't have to wear it. "Hi" to the Boss. And concats to your winners. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Misty May, Mauricio, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

  28. Waffles, a nice lavender/purple harness is NOT unmasculine at all! It really sets off your fur, actually. No worries!

    And it sounds like you had a super field trip. I don't think I'd have behaved quite as well as you did. ;-)

    Purrz!

  34. Waffles, my Tiger wanted to tell you that it takes a very manly cat to wear purple so well...His favorite bed is pink :)

  35. You sure are brave, Waffles!! We fuss and cry anytime we go in the car - all the way there and allll the way back, too!

  40. Great job Waffles!!! Mom gets some of our fosters to walk on harness/ leashs and it seems to be working (though she tells people it is less about walking about more about keeping them from wandering away). :)

  42. What a cool trip, Waffles! I agree, you may want a more manly harness but your Sleepypod carrier is coming in quite handy!

  53. You got me with these pics, Waff. do you ever meet any real mean dogs who stick there noses in the cart? Watch out that Katie doesn't hire a hit dog. Even the cat mayor of Alaska was hurt by a dog last week.

  55. WOOT! Concats to the winnahs!

    We wanna know about this new harness, cuz Maxie is NOT happy wif the Puppia, even though our mom told him he looked like a member of a SWAT team in it, and made him seem really buff and Mancatly. (he wasn't buying)

    ReplyDelete
  56. Panky: Wut kinda harness are you waring Waffles? DaMa wood like more info on it fur da Troyer.
    You're much braver dan Iz am. DaMa wanted me to learn how to go on field trips, but Iz got skeered in my own jungle when some big hairy human got too close. Mebbe she can teach Troyer.
    Concats to da winners.

  57. What a fantastic outing for a cat! Waffles looks very comfortable in the leash and the carrier.

    ReplyDelete
  58. wow Waffles! You are getting pretty relaxed with this outing stuff...and that mouse, well you could have asked Glogirly if you could take him home for Katie...maybe that would make her feel better about you...just a suggestion...
