If Real Men Can Wear Pink, Real Mancats Can Play With It, That's My Story & I'm Sticking To It!

A package! It's for ME!!
I wonder what it could be?
It is from my Mom's bloggy friend Patty
She writes the bloggy "Art & Sew Forth"
Mom says she makes catnip toys for kitties!
Did she send one to ME???

It's a "Mousey Wiener Link?"
What is that?

"Oh No!! It's PINK!
PINK FLOWERS!
I'm a MANCAT!
I'll NEVER live this down!
It's a "Mousey Wiener Link?"
I call it a "Snouse"
Half Snake, Half Mouse
A "SNOUSE!"
There's a PINK "SNOUSE"
IN MY HOUSE!

At first I didn't want to play with it.
 I would be the laughing stock
 to end all laughing stocks
 among my Mancat friends.

Mom didn't care for my ungrateful attitude
She started rattling off her trite cliches:

"It IS a present after all, blah, blah, blah"
"Who cares what color it is? Blah, blah, blah"
"It's the thought that counts!" Blah, blah, blah"
"There are starving and homeless kitties
all over the world
that would be GRATEFUL
to play with this toy!
So what if it is PINK?!"




That's easy for HER to say
She is of the female "purrsuasion"
I hate to tell her but
I had an image of someone else
who was given something pink:





Mom was still upset with me.
In an effort to restore my
mancatliness she looked up
the meaning of the color pink

Here is what she found
from 
"Emily Gems, Joyful Crystals & Gemstones"


"Pink provides feelings of caring, tenderness, self-worth and love, acceptance.

Put some pink in your life when you want:
  • calm feelings
  • to neutralize disorder
  • relaxation
  • acceptance, contentment
Reading that definition made me happy
Now that's a horse,  wiener,  "SNOUSE"
of a different color!

I decided to mancat up
and grin and bear it
I would play with my
wiener "SNOUSE"
with abandon!
(on a carpet emblazoned with PINK ROSES no less!)
 I would embrace
the fact that I 
pussyfoot to a different  drummer!
I'm secure in my
mancatliness!





NONE of you
really saw
ANY of this


DID YOU?


I repeat...


DID YOU?


"NO?"


Good.


 Let's keep it that way.
It will be our little secret

  10. LOL! I believe that these color 'prejudices' only relate to humans since dogs and cats can't really see colors :) So don't worry! I think your mancatliness is still intact!

    Enjoy your prezzie!

  11. Looks like Cody took a liking to the weiner link...LOL

    ReplyDelete
  12. Cody - pink is cool. Don't worry about those old time prejudices... Besides, it is very metrosexual :)

    ReplyDelete
  13. @Benny and Lily, they sure do!

    @Diane I was teasing above. I LOVE MY WEINER LINK!

    @Priscilla, welcome back! My mom and I have missed you!! I always heard that cats and dogs can see RED, who really knows though? Ohhhh I was kidding about the pink, my Mom and I agree about color prejudice. Yep I am still a manly mancat!

    @Puddy I will be over to see you today for sure! My Mom was so busy yesterday that neither of us had any time to visit the bloggies but we are going to do that later today or tonight (or both). Can't wait to see about YOU and pink! "Great minds!" We didn't even know! Oh and I am NOT "Massive Sweet" lol!!! xoxoxo

    @Goldie I soooo agree and I love to "wrassle" mine!

    @Cat from Sydney, my Dad likes pink shirts too!

    @chocolate angel, thank you!!

    @Sparkle, lol, good point! :)

    @Art and Sew Forth, touche'!!! You got me! Now why didn't I think of the Pink Panther???? That is the BEST example of PINK being "cool" EVER!!!! Thanks for being such a good sport!!! I LOVE MY LINK!!! You could tell from the video that I do! My mom and I love YOU! xoxoxo

    @GlamKitty I am sooo happy that you noticed my "moves" I worked very hard at purrfecting them and YOU noticed!! My Mom said to thank you about liking her video. She still doesn't know what she is doing! xoxoxo

    @Natalie, yep like Art & Sew Forth said, I gotta be a "trend setter" but it looks like Puddy is one too! :)

  14. Pink is "technically" not the predominant color of your sausage links, so it's perfectly okay.

    Have a great day.

    pawhugs, Max

  15. Caren, in reply to your comment on my blog, those were the goodies I bought (or got from my friend, Lian) when I was in the UK!!!!!!

    Eva loves her foxy toy too :) It's great because it's small, and light so she can fling it around!!

    ReplyDelete
  16. I think your pink wiener link looks awesome!!! Enjoy :-)

    ReplyDelete
  17. Cody, I think you're mancat enough to enjoy the pink toy with no worries!

  18. What a great toy! Pink is the new blue for men Cody! Think Pink!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Bailey's trick is to get it a bit dirty and nobody will notice. Now that Katy is here he claims all the "pretty" toys are hers until he happens to have one in his mouth.

  20. CONCATS on your win on Deb's Blog!!! Cody will love his dish, I saw it at Mackinac City and it is sooooo cute!!!. Also, tooooo funny about the pink and that pink nightmare scene from A Christmas Story is one of my all time faves!!! That movie never fails to crack me up. Cody you could make any color great!!! Hugs, Sue and Rosie

  21. Cody - someone needs to blaze a trail on behalf of other men kitties who surely have had to deal with a pink toy or two in their lives, but have never had courage like you to just "man up" to it! Lets face it, that is one irresistibly pawsome toy! You sure did look like you were having fun and we want a SNOUSE too!!!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Nope, nah hah... ain't seen nothing!
    Mmmm... but Cody what happened - you're lying on a carpet with pink roses too???
    Oh, forgot.. ain't seen nothing :-))) Promise!

That movie is one of Mom's ALL TIME FAVES!!! It was filmed in Cleveland and Mom used to wait for the bus to go to work right outside the store window where they filmed the store scene! xoxoxo

    @Bailey, get it dirty! That's pure genius!! See? I can tell you are a Sheltie, you are so darned smart! xoxoxo

    @Clooney you have a pink cigar? What did someone have a baby girl and they left it for you? MOL!!!!! That's the only reason you should have a pink cigar my friend! (kidding!!!) MOL! Oh and Mom said to tell you that you are more than welcome to enter the contest for the Innova food if you would like to! We would love for you to enter but we do understand if you do not want to! xoxoxo

    @Admiral Hestorb you are one very observant ladycat my dear. You noticed I was playing in a very manly fashion and that touches me to the tip of my tail. I find you to be quite exquisite and I love your adventurous ways! I like seafaring ladycats! Thank you for brightening my world, Love, Cody
