I’m pleased to introduce Max to A Mindful Migration. You might say he’s the cat’s meow and excited to guest post today.
Hi ya, everyone! It’s me, Max. You can call me Mighty Max, MaxE, The Max Man, Sir Snoops a Lot, Mr Pepper or Chief Mischief Maker. I have lots of nicknames because I am the coolest cat! I am also now the angriest cat. Grumpy cat ain’t got nothing on me because I am so mad right now. I hate Halloween.
Normally, I am California cool. Laid back. Mellow. Chilled out. Or at least I am when I’m not making mischief. But when Mama forces me into a stupid costume, I turn into Mad Max and sadly for Mama, not that handsome Tom Hardy version but one pissed off kitty.
Look. At. Me. I am wearing a cowboy hat. And a scarf. I’m just glad the stupid costume didn’t come with boots.
Or pants.
Seriously, I look stupid. And I’m a cool cat! Paw swear!
But how am I supposed to be cool when Mama dresses me up like this? It’s impossible!
Sure, sure Mama goes on and on about how handsome I look in my cowboy hat and scarf and it’s true that it’s extremely difficult for me to look un-handsome.
I am a feline after all. We are notoriously good looking!
And very, very, very humble.
But still. I look dumb. I don’t need no stupid hat or scarf to know that I’m the Sheriff of this apartment. Mama does what Max meows. I meow feed me. She does. I meow pet me. She does. I meow play with me. She does.
Mama knows that I’m boss. The Max Man needs no stupid cowboy hat to know he’s the sheriff of all 600 square feet of TanyaLand.
It’s just a fact.
Just like it’s a fact that doggies are to blame for these stupid Halloween costumes. I mean how many doggies have you seen prancing around in their sweaters and skirts when you see their human pets walking them? Like all of them. Lame. Pathetic. Dumb.
Cats are just too cool to roll with clothes. I mean I look perfect without them.
And I look stupid in them.
So dumb. And I gave Mama an earful too!
Anyway, the only good thing to come out of this stupid costume is that Mama gave me extra treats. Sure, I had to “pose” for pictures and endure all her annoying coos and what not. But at least there was some form of payment. Sometimes she just makes me wear clothes for her amusement and my humilation.
Rude.
Anyway, I’m exhausted. It’s very tiring being so righteously angry and I now need a nap. Afterwards I’m getting into mischief. Lots and lots of mischief because a cat never forgets. Never forgives. Ever.
Max
P.S. Please don’t make your felines where stupid Halloween costumes like me. But if you have a doggie, the more humiliating the costume — the better! Happy Halloween!
LOL if i had a pet, I’d FOR SURE dress him/her up for every event because as a fur parent, you have the right haha!
You have to do it! Scratches and bites, be damned! Maybe next year you’ll have a fur baby to dress up! ๐
haha… Paw Swear. I busted at that one.
Ahhh Max, I think you look adorable. Chill with the cat attitude ๐
But honestly, my dogs would probably be giving me a look of disgust if I dressed them up too – I’ve tried. The hubs wont let me do it though. No wonder they love him more ๐
Max is one sassy kitty! To be fair, he’s actually a very happy, laid back cat but he does not like clothes. He just flops over and lays there. Aw man, it’s too bad the fur babies won’t let you dress them up. It’s be fun! For you! LOL!
Aww, Max! You are SO handsome! You’ve definitely got that Chris Pratt in The Magnificent Seven swagger going on. Love it!
(And at least you were the cowboy and not the cow! My dog was a cow this year ๐ Hehe!)
Thank you! I am so handsome and appreciate your recognizing it! I do have mucho swagger and I bet that Chris Pratt would be so jealous of my good lucks! Please don’t tell Mama about making your doggie be a cow. She would want me to be a cow too! But I don’t MOO! I MEOW!
Max is adorable as usual ๐ Lol, I’d be in the hospital getting stitches if I tried to put my cat into a costume! Ha, ha, ha…
Max is overall okay with putting on the costume but he just lays there, contemplating how humiliating this is and his revenge. The first time I put a scarf on Emeril, he threw it in the toilet. ๐
I can’t believe he lets you put that on him! Pepe would have a fit. He’s so cute!
I’ve been fortunate in that regard. Max doesn’t like wearing clothes but he doesn’t throw down the way same cats would. I think he knows that I would endure scratches and bites to get him in a costume. LOL!
ugh i wish my cats were as cool as Max ๐
Well, I’m not sure if he is always cool. Sometimes he is a big troublemaker! But I still love him. ๐
