The Naughty Hat

Ladies and Gentlemen, I know it will be hard to believe that the angel pictured here earned the dubious honor of wearing the naughty hat last night. The infraction: bad manners (gasp!).

G came home from work yesterday after stopping at the Pet Supermarket, and he was bearing a bag loaded with pig ears, organic chicken jerky enhanced with glucosamine & chondrointin, a stuffie, and a squeaky ball. Needless to say, he was very excited to share some of his loot with his lucky hounds. As excited as he was, G was not expecting Hoover to jump up and nip his hand, which is exactly what happened. Clearly, this was not cool.

So Hoover (Mr. Excitement) didn't get a treat. He didn't get to play with a toy. He spent about an hour in isolation, and then he was made to wear the newly-created Naughty Hat. As you can see here, this part of the punishment didn't affect him much, but we did have a few laughs over it.

I think sometimes I deserve to wear the naughty hat. Does it come in people-head sizes?

I had a good laugh over this photo! ;-)

Hoover says he's innocent. G only thought he was the guilty party. It was really his brother in a clever disguise.

Too funny!! I need one of those permanently velcroed to Lucy's (aka Lucifer) head!! Great idea!

My son's dog needs to have that stapled to his head. He never acts right unless he's sleeping.
Come to think of it, BossLady's on to something. You might want to make me one while you're at it. This election's making me a bit cranky, and I've been lashing out.

Oh Zan, I'm sure Hoover claimed innocence, and he does have that honest face, doesn't he? I wasn't sure who did it at first because G yelled, "Hey you jerk!", which I probably shouldn't have laughed at while he was still mad.

We can make Naughty Hats in people sizes, no worries. They could also say CRANKY, SNARKY, or just about anything that fits the wearer's mood. Submit your requests!
