Last month our family visited the "Anne of Green Gables Museum" in PEI and of course brought Nofuratu and did a photo shoot for his blog.
As usual we had a large crowd of people develop around us all asking about him and making comments.
Nofuratu was with his pet stroller, just on the ground beside it with his leash and harness on, and was wearing a cool outfit. We also passed out business cards for his blog. So any idiot could tell from the stroller and the clothes that this cat was "my baby"....not just a regular cat on a leash...
This older lady said super loud so the whole crowd could hear, in a really mean, snarky tone of voice "Well that must have set you back a few bucks!"
I was so irked by her tone....like she was suggesting he was just a bag of money and not "My baby".....instead of commenting on his beauty, she just saw a price tag!!
So I yelled at her "No one ever says " Well that must have set you back a few bucks" to people who buy a baby from China do they?"
She responded with "Point taken" and shut up after that.....
Sure he is a cat and not a real human baby, but our family obviously treats him like a baby and you dont go up to someone with a stroller and start flying your mouth off about how much babies cost do you? You say "what a lovely baby/cat/stroller" and move on.....
