I’m the woman who buys something just because there’s a cat on it. Or because it reminds me of my cats. Especially if it reminds me of my cats! Case in point: I’ve been searching for a Coke bottle with my name on it for months. I know, it’s silly, but everyone likes to see their name in lights, so to speak, and don’t deny it! My name used to be quite common, so you’d think there’d be a Coke bottle out there for me somewhere, but I’ve yet to find one – although I’ve seen some names I’ve never heard before in my life. Go figure. ANYWAY …
Yesterday while shopping at Target, there it was: a Coke bottle right in the front of the refrigerated case, calling out to me: “Share a Coke with SHEL.” My youngest cat’s name!!!! I think I actually squealed with glee. It was even better than finding a bottle with my own name on it, because it was my furbaby’s name!! (His full name is actually Sheldon, but he often goes by Shel.) I bought that Coke, and I’m going to drink it with delight, although I won’t actually share it with Sheldon – he’d much rather share a yogurt with me, and that’s much better for him anyway, and I doubt he’d drink some Coke even if I offered it to him – and I’m going to save the bottle for posterity. Because cats!
I did take some pictures of Shel with his Coke. Have you ever tried to get a cat to pose with a soda bottle? When he wants to do anything but pose with a soda bottle? Possibly one of the crazier things I’ve ever done in my life. Or not …. but I patently reject the title of “crazy cat lady.” Call me a proud cat woman!!!!
