I have been neglectful in posting pictures of the fairly rare plastic-faced Scar I managed to snag (not that any of you probably care much). I got him several months back, but my camera's battery died and I was too lazy to go into the next room for a new one, so I just hadn't snapped his photo yet. Tonight I overcame that laziness.
Anyway, Sir Scar here has been in "exile" in my closet, since he positively REEKS of cigarette smoke, and if there is anything I LOATHE with an unholy fire, it is the stench of cigarettes. Thus Scar has been relegated to the floor of the dark closet until he stops stinking (I WILL rename you Nuka if you keep it up, Scar!) or we both die of old age. This plush has some scuffing on his plastic face, which is probably why I got him so damn cheap, but when I overcome more laziness, it should be easy (relatively) to touch those spots up with paint. I'm fairly good at color matching.
You may also notice Scar sharing loves with my cat. Fatso was intrigued by Scar's mane, and probably his smell. So Fatty-Boy gave him a good once over with the nose. HEY BOY... WHERE YOU BEEN? XD
My suggestion to get rid of the smokey smell is to put some dryer sheets on top of him. I had the same problem once, and I just put some dryer sheets on the stuffed animal, left them there for about a day, and now it doesn't smell like smoke anymore.
On a serious note...I feel the same way about Cigarettes. I will not allow smoking in my car. I don't care if I trash and make a mess of it with garbage bags and wraps and such, but the smell of smoke is bleh. A lot of my friends smoke though which sucks, but they seem to respect the rule. I'm glad I don't smoke. I couldn't afford to if I wanted to with the tax on them.
Scar plushie is cute though. XD I think I've got some lion king plushies in storage somewhere...which will probably need to be washed if there's anything left of them. XP
Haha that's understandable. If it's not cigarette smoke, then it's some other funk they pick up from being in storage.
But your cat looks like one who was hanging out outside our back patio. I was planning on adopting him, but he disappeared. Maybe he was your cat all along. I'd prefer that he already had a loving home than see him get hit on the highway or worse.
Yeah you're right about that. In fact, after careful examination I realized the two cats had a few different markings. Your cat has that little white tip on his chest and is lighter inside the ears. My little stray friend didn't have those, and his ears were darker on the inside. The resemblence was strikingly similiar though!
Ah well. XD As much as it would be cool to discover that a famous DA TLK artist is living in the same neighborhood, I'm glad in a way because that means your cat is doing healthy and well. I have a soft spot for cats. I guess I'll never know for sure what happened to my little stray friend.
