Pete's Expert Summary
My human has, yet again, acquired an object of profound uselessness for anyone of refined feline taste. They call it a "Rhinowalk Scooter Shoulder Strap." It's a long, black nylon ribbon with some plastic clicky bits and a padded section. Its alleged purpose is to help the Biped carry their loud, wheeled metal contraption, a device whose sole function seems to be taking my staff away from the house and their primary duties. From my perspective, it's a glorified leash for a machine. The length might offer some potential for a vigorous tangling session, and the "thickened shoulder pad" looks passably comfortable for a chin rest, but its core identity is tied to the Human's departure. Therefore, it is an accessory to abandonment and fundamentally unworthy of my time, unless I am exceptionally bored.

A Tale from Pete the Cat
The thing arrived in a crinkly package, which provided a solid thirty seconds of auditory bliss before the Human ripped it open and discarded the best part. Out came the strap, a long, black serpent of synthetic mediocrity. They fiddled with it, making the buckles at each end *click* and *clack* in a most unsatisfying rhythm, then slung it over their own shoulder and paraded around the room like a prize-winning mule. I watched from atop the bookshelf, unimpressed. They soon grew bored, as bipeds do, and left the strap draped between the back of the dining room chair and the kitchen counter, creating a sagging, dark line that bisected the room. For an hour, it was nothing more than an ugly piece of visual clutter. But then, a fly—a fat, arrogant bluebottle with no respect for personal airspace—began buzzing near the ceiling fan. My first few attempts to intercept it from the ground were pathetic failures. Leaping from the counter was too far. The chair was too low. My pride was on the line. Then my gaze fell upon the sagging bridge. The Rhinowalk. It hung there, a path of last resort. A tightrope over the linoleum abyss. With a sigh of great theatricality, I hopped onto the dining chair. The strap was narrow, a mere whisper of fabric. I placed a single, tentative paw upon it. It swayed, a treacherous thing. But the fly buzzed tauntingly, and my hunter's spirit overrode my deep-seated cynicism. I began the crossing. One paw in front of the other, my tail a feathery rudder, I traversed the dark ribbon. The world shrunk to this 1.5-inch-wide path. I felt a surge of adrenaline, the thrill of the high-wire artist. Midway across, I reached the thickened shoulder pad—a welcome plateau, a soft, stable oasis where I could steady myself and recalculate my trajectory. It was surprisingly comfortable underpaw. From this new vantage point, I gathered my haunches, locked onto the fly's position, and sprang. The strap bucked beneath me like a startled horse, but my launch was true. I twisted in mid-air, a gray-and-white blur of elegant fury, and batted the insolent insect into oblivion. I landed silently on the kitchen counter, a triumphant warrior. The strap, I decided, was still a ridiculous object for a ridiculous purpose. But as an impromptu assault bridge and a test of my supreme athletic prowess? It had proven its worth. I would allow it to remain, for now. It may not be a toy, but it could, on occasion, be a tool for greatness.
