On March 2, 2010, a few days before my birthday, we met for the first time.
I wasn't sure I wanted to allow Daddy to bring this huge box into the apartment, but when he told me its contents were my birthday present I was pursuaded. ;-D
Daddy had bought the Pet Gear Happy Trails Pet Stroller online, and that first week the 2 of us began to get acquainted.
My Pussycat Purrambulator, & I, soon became fast friends.
I like to sleep in the Feline Utility Vehicle (FUV) when not out Strolling, and despite playing hard to get,when Daddy wants to go somewhere, I really do enjoy our trips, as my blog posts have detailed.
So also, eventually, has Elvira, once she entered our lives later in the year. ;-D
However, it's time to finally toss the box it came in in to the trash.
Before doing so Daddy let us (Actually Elvira for the most part) give it a proper send off. ;-D
Elvira had a field day exploring the box.
Young Kitties are so easily amused, I swear. ;-D
I found it fun, for a few minutes, to play peek-a-boo. ;-D
However, when Elvira suddenly got emotional....
and started carressing the box...
and wanted to share one of our Blankies with the damn thing...
I firmly put my paw down, and drew the line, doing my best to ignore her until she, or Daddy, had enough, & he took it to the dumpster, putting it, mercifully, out of its misery. ;-D
Anyway....
Way back, on that first day, I had grand ambitions.
As I wrote:
No doubt there are websites, and blogs, where users of Pet Strollers have extolled their virtues, and come together, to share experiences, and user tips, and we shall try to find them.
No doubt there are members of the Cat Blogosphere, and even Dog Blogosphere, who have this, and similar vehicles, and have shared their experiences, and we shall try to find them, too.
If you, dear reader, have one, and have shared your experiences (Especially on Mass Transit, and Commuter Trains!) on your blog, or want to send us your thoughts, as well as links to your blog reports, and related resource links, we'd love to hear from you.
We can be reached at the e-mail under my picture in the sidebar (Remember to squish the words together, no spaces, or it won't work!), or you can leave a comment to this post. ;-D
A lot has happened, in the past year, and plans to collect resources never developed, but I plan to finally start.
Several months back I even set up a page, linked in the sidebar, to hopefully build a blogroll, and the resource collection.
So far 3 blogs are on the list! ;-D
Stroller Derby League, and Kitties of the Leash Auxiliary Blogrolls
Got Wheels?
Does your Human take you out in a Pet Stroller?
Are you into Leashes & Restraints?
For Those Cat Bloggers Who Dare to Live on The Wild Side !!
I had hopes of eventually reviving the Stroller Derby Sunday Carnival, the idea being that Strollers, and Leashers, would submit links to one, or more, of their excursions of the previous week, or just a post of themselves lounging in the Stroller, taking a nap, or snooze. ;-D
Cute kitties, they look like they were having fun with the box.
Nice post and photos.
