This year, I dressed up as something I had joked about last
year:
Ok, the costume wasn’t nearly as cool looking in real life,
but it WAS a dinosaur onesie.
I put it on to show Boyfriend and Kitty, and excitedly
bounced into the living room.
 |
| we call this "foreshadowing" |
I was NOT expecting what happened next.
Yes, kitty thought I was a real dinosaur (or that I was
being attacked and eaten by a real dinosaur), fell off her cat perch, and
broke my blinds on the way down. Then she went into full on scary kitty mode.
 |
| she sensed danger. |
It was freaking hilarious.
 |
| Are we bad people? Maybe. |
I quickly took off the costume to show her I was alive and well.
Eventually she kind of came around.
And that’s how I accidentally terrorized my cat on
Halloween.
I love that drawing of your scared kitty. Did you make or buy a dinosaur onesie? Where do you find an adult onesie of anything? No, really, where do you find adult onesies? Uh, asking for a friend.
ReplyDeleteOh I bought it. The internet is a wonderful place. (No really - only about 20 bucks on amazon!)
DeleteEight lives to go.
ReplyDeletePoor kitty! Did The Boyfriend dress up later as a caveman?
ReplyDeleteAh yes, is there anything sexier than watching your loved one prance around in a dinosaur onesie?
ReplyDeleteAlso, my cat used to think I was someone else when I wore a ball cap. She'd get mad, hiss, and try to attack me. Then I'd take it off and she'd instantly mellow out. Like you, I'm a terrible person, so I just laughed until I cried. Psychologically, I'm sure she's fine.
I am so glad this is the sort of high brow blog that includes foreshadowing! Class, pure class here :)
ReplyDeleteI feel bad for the kitty, but I would have laughed, too. Just don't be surprised if you find cat pee on that costume at some point!
That was funny. Hilarious. I am now resisting the urge to buy a onesie for myself. My dog freaks out at Mylar balloons. Animals are fun :). Sorry for the very disjointed comment; I'm sitting at the doctor's office and I think it's making me anxious.
ReplyDeleteHow did you manage to pee when you were in your costume? It seems like too much work. That's a terrible thing you did to Kitty. Now she wants to live with me.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Lmao this one killed me!! Too funny..where did u ever find an adult dinosaur onesie anyways??? Haha
ReplyDeleteThat's hilarious! Poor kitty. :-)
