So usually when asked why I am taking Hairrry and Curly to Pet smart people laugh..... I am wanting to socialize them so we can have them in our Christmas photos in a cotton field,

So Hairry did awesome!! He went thru those isles like a old pro. All the people wanting to tough him and he was eating it up. Not so sure about that kind of reaction when Curly goes on Sunday.

I let Piglet walk. People dont think Cats can walk on leashes until they see him do it. All mine can, some just do it better.

Elvy does walk on a leash. Somedays she does better than others.
But it looks like Hairry had a swell time!! :ThumbsUp:

Hairry loves riding in the car and seeing people. I have to laugh when people come over he thinks everyone loves him. He did very well with everyone wanted to touch him.. etc

We had a harry cat years ago that was indoors that loved going for walks on the leash.

How fun! I think we are going to make our first petco run today. I want to get a harness and leash but would like storm to try it on first.

6ay Hairry! Welcome to the Shopping Cat Club. Cleopatra goes to Petsmart and at least one other place every Saturday. Some of the salespeople even bow to her, because the newest nickname is "Queen of Her World!":LOL:
Here's a pic from last summer:

I would love to take Bea places, but not sure if she would like it. She's 11 yrs old and I'm sure never went anywhere with her former family. She doesn't like to be held, even, though she will come and sit on my lap. I haven't had many visitors, I'd like to see how she reacts to strangers more.

Today at church someone brought their cute little chihuahua in a pink sweater with white skulls on it. She was adorable. There is a woman who sometimes brings her dog - not sure what he is, he looks kind of like a rotweiller, but is probably a mix of a black lab and something else. She is usually one of the ones who takes collections, and Rocky goes around with her.

There are some sort of microwavable things to keep food warm, or your neck warm (someone gave me one of those), maybe that's what I'd need, so she could stay warm. Might work for taking her out in a stroller if it's under 80 degrees, LOL

Hubbell hasn't made a Petsmart visit yet either, I'm afraid if he likes the outside too much he will try to sneak out of the house when the kids go in and out. Maybe soon, sounds like they enjoy the attention
