Thread: Taking An Awwdorable Shy Cat On A Trip To The Pet Store

Looking at dog owners, we have always wondered what it would be like to take our cats on walks. We imagine that for spoiled indoor cats such as ours, it would be a whole adventure - a terrifying yet fascinating adventure. We read stories about cats traveling the world with their owners, but we know our cats would never be like that. They'd be too scared, and honestly, we would be too scared to try with them. But… a quick trip to the pet store with them… might be worth it.

It was definitely worth it for this awwdorable shy kitty who went viral on imgur. It seems that it's not this cat's first time going on a trip outside, although we're not sure. Regardless, kitty got over her nervousness super fast, and that trip turned from wholesome - the owner holding the cat in her arms - to even wholesome-r with the cat enjoying the space freely.

Honestly, the first time we looked at this picture, we were so confused. Because we were just certain - absolutely certain - that this was a baby. We were right though, because kitties are basically our babies anyway. Seeing her sitting on you like that makes the whole thing so much more wholesome.

Aaand from 0 to 100. One second, it looks like she's trying to stay as close to her hooman momma as possible, the next, it looks like she's full-on reaching out and trying to get her little murderpaws on what she wants. We love this. We wish we could do this with our cats, we really do. It would be pawsome.
