So cute - not to mention hilarious!

I'll never forget this 'product review' I read on Upworthy, relating to the new addition to a family:

The review is longer than this, but here's a highlight in case the link doesn't work:

"4.5 stars. Accidentally got the gassy mode."

That amazon review is SO funny. I like how he told us not to worry about the terrified look on the baby's face, that it pretty much always looked like that and was nothing to worry about. Thanks for sending it!

LOL - I loved the comments from other parents, too!

"👀 careful with the order button, I got 2 for 1 deal!"

I'd have to order the box of six. What a delightful story in every way.

Sharron Bassano's avatar

Six! A fine starter kit. ha ha ha. But I think you better consult with the two you already have before ordering.

Adorable! You are the queen of photos, Cousin. All of those cat-in-the-box photos to illustrate your post. Clever concept.

Thanks, Ken. For some reason I have a lot of cat fans subscribed to Leaves. Principally older folks... I have enrolled you in Raymond's fan club, the Raybots. A rather dubious honor, but Raymond like the metrics... Ray has posted a new Pawed Cast today. I hope you like it.

Ooooh my heart!! I want that variety pack! Of course in reality, I barely have room for one. I miss my Ozzy. Love, love, love your products. Can they be rented, or leased? 🤭😰

Sharron Bassano's avatar

Amazon does not rent or lease these items. Yet. But you can go to their local subsidiary, The ASPCA and become a foster parent! Temporary rescuer - a great start.

Sharon Hudson's avatar

What a great idea, Sharron! I’d probably start with a single pack….😘

Hilarious! This is a one in a million story. I’m going back to Raymond.

Sharron Bassano's avatar

Our Raymond is always good for a laugh over your morning coffee! So glad you have become a Raybot! He will hold a new pawed cast sometime this month. Watch for it!

Yael Gelardin's avatar

I definitely will!

Five stars! Can you trade them in once they are not cute kittens anymore? Just curious--not that I would ever dream of doing that.

Sharron Bassano's avatar

You can't fool me. You'd place an order for puppies.

James Ron's avatar

This is great, Sharron. FIVE stars.

You've outdone yourself with this one. It has to be my favorite story so far. And that goes way beyond five stars. Thank you for the chuckles on this cold and blustery day. (We are having a Cat 1 force windstorm today.)

A morning laugh. We needs it. Hunker down, girl, Batten the hatches. Make another pot of coffee before the electricity goes out. We have a gentle little rain today - which we delight in.

I took on 2 new kittens. They're named Underfoot and In the Way. I offer a more generous supply of kitty liter and one pink and one blue scratching board. Please DM.for ordering instructions and discount. Huge discount.

Sharron Bassano's avatar

Ha ha ha! Nice try, Joan. Great names for your kitties! Are you calling them Undie and Innie? 😊

Joan Spilman's avatar

You wicked woman!

Joan Spilman's avatar

Only to you. Now that we have new carpet and they have diaherrea, I call them other things.

Sharron Bassano's avatar

Euw. I’ll bet you do.

Jill CampbellMason's avatar

And I give you an enthusiastic five stars for writing this missive! Continue with great courage and humor!

I would not be surprised if Amazon started offering these lovely creatures. They carry everything else!
