Stalking Bananya

Meows from Mudpie, and happy National Banana Day!

Since I'm a cat and therefore not a fan of the popular fruit, I wanted to use today to introduce you to my new friend, Bananya, and the back story of how she joined our little family.

Have you heard of Bananya? It's a Japanese anime television series that follows a white cat who lives inside a banana. Mommy tried to resist the temptation of adding yet another stuffie to our collection until she received an email from Barnes & Noble introducing Calico Bananya, and she had to have it. (Since plush torties are impossible to find, calicoes are the next best thing!)

So she went to the bookstore one Saturday afternoon, had to ask where to find Bananya, only to find another lady walking off with the very last calico!!! She stalked followed the woman around the store for a bit just in case she put the cat down, but when she headed for the checkout Mommy had to give up. Luckily a week later the calico was listed online as back in stock at our store and she was able to reserve it in-store for pick up.

Now the cute little calico is part of my snuggle pile on the bed :)
