Inflatable Unicorn Horn for Cats - Thrift Store Find of the Day (or Lifetime)?

in #funny9 years ago (edited)

As a "professional" thrifter and reseller, I've come across some crazy stuff.

I once found a used "deluxe" penis extension kit on the kid's toy shelf and reported it to the manager. Yes, some type of medieval stretching contraption. Yes, it was USED, and very unclean!

To the amazing team responsible for donating, pricing, and stocking it in the kid's section, you're all a bunch of idiots.

Moving on...

Today's rare find was an Inflatable Unicorn Horn for Cats! Sighhh, my lucky day!

It was sealed new for $2.00, so we all know that it doesn't get any better than this. How could I also not appreciate the candid honesty on the box that "CATS LOVE IT!"?

To think that it'd been sitting in that store unclaimed for weeks broke my heart. A cat could have been enjoying it all of that time!

I actually DO have a cat named Spike, so the stars seemed aligned. I was so tempted to brighten his day with this gift and make him wear it to dovetail this post. I'm sure he would've been so happy that he just wouldn't be able to stop himself from clawing me to pieces in excitement.

The design was flawless. The safety instruction were so thoughtful. Renowned Kitty Kitty Meow Meow even endorsed recycling. I can't imagine how much that sponsorship deal must've cost.

Lastly, what better way to ensure that my happy cat would have this unicorn hat for a lifetime than to have it be inflatable?

I feel bad for having doubts then, but hindsight is 20/20. CATS LOVE IT! Just look how happy Spyke is. That could be my Spike. Maybe it'll still there tomorrow...

Let me know if you've had any crazy thrift store finds below!

Hahah lol 😂 some inventions are just better than others

Damn, Dan. You're making me feel like I let one get away.

Thanks, I needed that laugh, love the expression on the cats face. Well done, sorry my vote is worth squat.

Vote not necessary, you laughing was.

You have a great attitude, you received my 100% vote, sometimes it's actually worth a penny. Apparently not today :( Love what you do!

@steemmatt.....why?...Why?....WHY is there no picture of the used "deluxe" penis extension kit all in it's used and unclean glory?

you tease!

I didn't think to capture a picture of it then on the shelf. Hold on, I'll take a picture of it now. Hahaha. Seriously was revolted by it.

haha....I expect stronger stomachs from Steemians with Rep 55 or higher :)

It had some type of green film on it. Mildew, fungus, I don't know. There should not be any type of anything on it. I opted to leave those details out until you dragged them out of me. This was pre-Steemit. If you're ok with that condition, let me know and I'll buy the next one I find in a thrift store or when upcycling and happily send it to you free of charge.

now...now...don't go making promises you can't keep @steemmatt

I'll be looking for that kind of minimum commitment from the men I meet on Steeemit :P

Haha, that box art is priceless! Gotta love the wtf are you doing to me human cat face.

Many cats love having their forehead gently stroked.

@catfacts - I have 10+ irrelevant and annoying comments from you on my one post within 20 minutes. You have 4 hours to delete them or they will all be flagged.

In ancient Egypt, when a family cat died, all family members would shave their eyebrows as a sign of mourning.

Cats purr at the same frequency as an idling diesel engine, about 26 cycles per second.

The heaviest cat on record is Himmy, a Tabby from Queensland, Australia. He weighed nearly 47 pounds (21 kg). He died at the age of 10.

A cat can’t climb head first down a tree because every claw on a cat’s paw points the same way. To get down from a tree, a cat must back down.

Cats have supersonic hearing
