TSC - The Cat in the Hat

2007.08.31
Poor Spike had no idea what was in store for him.

I thought it was perfect for him...

Oh no, something's attacking my head!

I don't care what she says, it does not make me look sophisticated.

Why would she want to cover up my ears?

I'm just going to ignore her so she'll go away!

I've had it! Keep that thing away from me!

Look into my eyes...you will not bother me anymore.

He was so ashamed he covered up his head to hide from me. Notice he's wearing his halo? As if!

In today's Spike Chronicles, you will find one frustrated cat and one frustrated photographer. I thought the hat was cute. A stripey hat for a stripey cat? Right? Spike thought otherwise.

I think I made the hat too small. Anyway, it was incredibly hard to get the hat on him and get my camera ready and take the photo before he knocked it off or rolled over. He got mad. I got mad. There was yelling. Teeth and claws came out. His too. :P I probably should have used my tripod. Or made a bigger hat. Or used a different cat. Maybe even a dog. Sigh.

I'll try this again. Oh, and my friend Jackie mentioned there were Halloween costumes for cats at Target. Guess where I'm heading this weekend?

Happy Friday!

P.S. Today got away from me. I will catch up on your blogs this weekend!

KC727 Interesting set!!!

kangshung I love the Spike chronicles - do you think Spike knows that he has international star status? I think cats perhaps take themselves too seriously to be able to wear things like hats - but he does have to earn his supper! Wonderful set as usual.

tvpav LOL! these are the best cat pictures I have ever seen. Very funny, that bored (am I bothered) look on #4 and #5 are priceless.

Your Spike is a legend.

chipotle hah!

you know he's going to pay you back by eating your flowers. it's inevitable.

Jackie I never suggested they were costumes for cats! They set "pet costumes". Please forgive me, Spike.
Jackie · 2007-08-31: 08:07
SheriJ A DOG??? How could you substitute a dog for such a great model of a cat.. Remember Models are high maintenance ! Very cute post!! I thought the color of the hat went well with Spikes stripes!! Good color choice...
SheriJ · 2007-08-31: 08:50
vollenda Yes, I do think he knows he's an international star. I KNOW the hat would have fit if his head hadn't gotten so big!

Yes, Patty, that's his attack cat mode! And no, I wouldn't really replace him with a dog. But I like to let him think that.

Last, but not least, you can all be assured he takes his revenge out every morning when he wakes me up at 5!

Jannie Poor Spike!! Kittys just don't like anything that's not their idea. You did a really good job of capturing his attitude all the while juggling hat, cat & camera!!

Hint: get a Halloween beanie with a chin strap!!
