The only running my cats would have me do would be sprints between the food bag and their dishes.

8 amber 09.16.08 at 7:44 pm

It looks like those Lisa Frank kittens in a shoe stickers from the ’90’s!! :)

9 Jmper 09.16.08 at 7:52 pm

What is it with kittehs and having to sit in your stuff all of the time? I mean I get home from work and drop my bag on the bed and with in 10 seconds Pippin is trying to shove his body in there. (He has quite the girth) Or ::turns red:: When I use the er…rest room, he has to come in and sleep in my pants ::groan:: I cannot believe I just typed that. He has never tried to wedge himself into my shoes but I’m sure he would try.

14 Kris 09.16.08 at 8:10 pm

How can I work out if he’s in my shoe???? Guess I’ll have to just sit and pet him…

15 Kris 09.16.08 at 8:10 pm

Good one, Samantha!!

16 berthaservant 09.16.08 at 8:12 pm

Don’t let your kitties eat shoe parts, people! Lest we remember the great Aglet Scandal of the early 80s, when countless kitties needed little kittie heimlichs?
:: wearing laceless shoes to prevent AAA – Accidental Aglet Asphyxiation ::

(okay, I’m just showing off that I know what at aglet is…the pic is uber cute)

17 harlemgrrl 09.16.08 at 8:24 pm

it’s the tiny elbow sticking out for chomp leverage that is killink me.

in other news: aglet?!?! oh, berthaservant… *must* you find more ways for me to fall in love with you?

18 momof2kitties 09.16.08 at 8:27 pm

ooo, ooo!! (waving raised hand wildly) I know what an aglet is too! Geeky word dorks unite!!!

19 momof2kitties 09.16.08 at 8:27 pm

*running to find the freshest catnip for Coach Kitteh*

*SHOE MAN CHEW* revisited

*SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*

*dissolves into puddle because of cute overload*

21 Theresa 09.16.08 at 8:50 pm

Also spelled “aiglet.”

22 Kimberly 09.16.08 at 8:51 pm

“jmper” – I have a Pippin as well, and he is addicted to my suitcases. I keep photos of my suitcases on my phone when I travel (in case they get lost), and he’s in every photo! I can’t keep him away from them, even when they’re closed. I finally bought hardshell suitcases to deal with the issue of cat hair – they still sleep on top of the hard cases, but the hair falls right off!

23 Erebella 09.16.08 at 8:57 pm

Is that a Catdidas shoe?

24 Erebella 09.16.08 at 8:58 pm

So if I don’t know what aglet is, does that mean I’m cool? Yeah, I know, not after that last comment, right?

25 sarah 09.16.08 at 9:01 pm

I can imagine him hopping around!!! The cutest thing. Now I am dead.

26 berthaservant 09.16.08 at 9:04 pm
27 Mim 09.16.08 at 9:30 pm

How is a nasty shoe on a filthy floor with a weird-looking kitten cute? FAIL!

28 Jmper 09.16.08 at 9:36 pm

Does this remind anyone of the game Super Mario Bro 3 fro the original nintendo…Mario would kick a gumba (?) out of a shoe and then hop around in it and not get hurt? http://www.mariowiki.com/Image:Kuribobobo.PNG

I know I just dated myself but it reminds me of the kitteh

29 Jmper 09.16.08 at 9:37 pm

::sigh:: Goomba, not gumba

30 Mary (the first) 09.16.08 at 9:47 pm

I know what an aglet is. Yay for me! And I have a kitteh who likes to sleep with her head in my shoes.. I think she has a “shoe fetish” and maybe this kitteh is developing one. It must smell yummmmy to them.

31 mom2twinzz 09.17.08 at 4:39 am

Fully understand the Pippen issue. Mine is currently interested in the toilet. He wants to watch the stuff go swirl in the bowl. He’s too short to drink out of it yet, but we have learned to “Flush” him out when he is hiding. Snirk.

32 Terry Holbert 09.17.08 at 12:27 pm

Usually I am not a big fan of kittens because they claw, use the bathroom everywhere, and destroy nice items of yours. However, in the past few years I have grown attached to my cat who had a sister that ran away. Ever since this occurred our cat, “Spice” feels as if she is the queen of our house and really she is. My parents treat her like gold giving her everything she wants and this drives me crazy. The cat in the shoe of this picture looks exactly like one of my friends which is why it struck my attention.

33 Boomer's Babysitter 09.17.08 at 5:38 pm

Hmm… always trying to find words to stump the Mr. Language Person in my life. Aglet/Aiglet… Hmmm…!

34 Katrina 09.17.08 at 8:17 pm

Here’s a couple, Boomer’s Babysitter-
‘anadromous’ and ‘pelagic’

Salmon are anadromous because they are born in fresh water and then go swim in salt and come back to spawn.

Pelagic pertains to a fish that lives all of its life out in the big, wide ocean, as in, perhaps, Sunfish.

Those words have never let me down. Of course now that they are on CO, well, maybe they will get picked up by someone as pedantic as I am, right Berthaservant?

35 Theo 09.17.08 at 11:53 pm

Katrina, how do you say “freshwater only” in Pedantic?

36 Katrina 09.18.08 at 11:58 am

Oh, dear, my funny has left the room just now, but I’ll find out from my-son-the- biologist the real term- I’m sure there must be one, geez, I hope it sounds funny!!

(opens e-mail and asks…)

I be pedantic again asap, which, as you know, means…

37 katie 11.17.08 at 1:23 am

that cat is gonna win because her kittynesss and superduper self distract every one
