good morning, meow mix! Do you ever have short-term bouts of cat clothing-related insanity? I’m going to venture a guess now that this does not come as a shock, but I do, and mine routinely occur at Target.

I was there the other day when I saw this children’s dress… Or is it a tunic top? I’m not exactly sure what it is, TBH! It was on a rack. When I saw it, I paused and thought, “Hmm… If I can find it in an XL, I bet I could wear it as a t-shirt!”

LOL. then I concerned my senses… Can ya blame me, though? That cat is very cute! ?

Oh, and I also saw this interesting mint green coat that reminds me of the restroom rug my parents had in the ’80s, ha ha!

I kinda wanted to get it, but I held back because I already own enough clothing that makes me look like a Muppet…
