The flip side of the coin....

Last week Mom embarrassed me to tears when she told the World about my fear of

"The Scary Bag AND THAT I WAS A MEMBER OF PABST (plastic attack bags therapy).

I, now know, she cannot be trusted to keep my deepest darkest secrets.
BUTT I'm here today to tell you about the flip side of the coin.

I, MADI, DIVA CAT, absolutely love Paper Bags.....
nothing about them is scary. I love sitting with them, tasting them

looking at them wondering what/who might be inside

I like Winnie the Pooh's quote below

"You can't stay in your corner of the forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes".
So in I go to see what exciting things I might find.

  1. Don't feel so bad, I'm a member of Pabst too, but the only thing I'm scared of is that I won't be able to get it out of the bag in time! ;)

  3. Hi Madi,
    Poor you... we know that you don't like plastic bags because they are not environmentally friendly! You are such a smart and considerate kitty because paper bags are more friendly to the environment.. **wink**

  6. I have always wondered why cats are so intrigued with paper bags, now I know!

    When we were owned by Fuzzy Face and her son Tigger, orange tabbies, grocery day meant a lot of fun for them!
    I'd just about empty one bag, set it down on the floor and POUNCE! One of those crazy felines was inside chasing imaginary mice! By the time they were done, the bags were no longer good for anything! But it was hilarious watching them! Thanks for refreshing the memory, Madi!
    Stay cool today!

  7. We all have things that we are afaid of.
    For me its heights.
    We had a dog that loved plastic bags.
    Anytime she heard that crinkle sound, she would come running from where ever. Our hired man would bring food in plastic bags and sometimes he gave her something good out of those plastic bags. Thus, she loved plastic bags. Trying to get groceries in the house without her snoopy sniffer was a challenge.

  11. There's nothing like a bag for big time fun! I wish they made them in ful-grown human sizes!

  12. Oh Madi, you have nothing to be ashamed of about fearing plastic bags... I'll never forget my poor little Lucky running thru the house tangled thru the handles of a plastic bag. Bouncing off walls, furniture and whatever....

    He was tramatized when it would not come off. He still gets big eyed when he sees one!!!

  15. Hi, gorgeous darling Madi. We love paper bags, too.

    Andy had a frightful incident with a plastic bag when he was about a year and a half old. He got it stuck on his head and it scared him....he flew around the apartment like a crazy cat with mama right behind him trying to catch him to relieve him of the bag. He bounced off walls, he hit a window head on and broke it!!!!!! He somehow got caught behind the wall unit. Mama couldn't get to him, but he somehow worked himself loose and as he came out, mama grabbed him and removed the bag. His heart was going 9,000 miles an hour...needless to say he got tons of lovin'!!!!!! To this day, he won't go near a plastic bag. We need to send him to PABST!!!!!!!

    Mama here....I'm feeling better.....I had three different things hit me, one right after the other, and for a couple of days I had all three of them going on at the same time. I'm still not 100% but am trying to work my way back to my normal routine....thanks for your purrs and prayers. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  16. We like plastic bags, BUT we have never had a bad experience with them. Mommy usually does not let us play with them, and she tries to pack her shopping in boxes and reusable bags, anyway.

    We DO love a good paper bag! They only last one day at our house...twelve kitties can get a LOT of fun out of a bag, and then Scouty chews it to shreds in the dead of night.

  19. Madi, we admit we don't get the plastic bag thing (we love them and Kirzon will lick one for a good half hour if he is allowed to) but we do understand the love of paper bags - they are so much fun to play with and chew and oh, just wonderful! We are glad that you at least have one type of bag you get to enjoy!

  21. We love paper bags too but we hardly ever get them. It is only those nasty scary plastic ones that mum brings home.

  22. Yup those paper bags are really fun. We love to play with them. But we like plastic bags too. Someone must have scart you with them. They do make a funny noise.
    Hope you have a fantastic evening.

  27. Hi Madi & Mom,

    There is nothing better than a paper bag huh Madi, except maybe a cardboard box....no, the bag is better. I can't decide, I like them both.

    Mom: Cindi would probably love to find a paper bag inside a box.

    Purrs and hugs,
    Cindi Lou and Mom
