An FAQ
Is a Sherpa crash specifically a collision between two Sherpas, or any crash that involves, in some way, at least one Sherpa?
So, it seems that there’s been a misunderstanding here. Sherpa is the brand name for these products. The pet carrier features a wooden stability board wrapped in waterproof linen, so you don’t have to worry about it getting saturated if your little buddy has an accident. And the mat is washable.
How do those features help when the carrier finds itself between two Sherpas careening towards each other at reckless speeds?
Again, this is not what the product title is referencing. Sherpa is the company. And, might we point out, we’re offering other Sherpa products here. Such as the soft-sided pet house.
Ah, interesting. So how were those crash tested? Was the Sherpa told to simply fall onto the pet house, thus crashing into it? Or were they coaxed into falling? Because the former would be morally better, but less natural. Whereas the latter would really test the house, but we imagine the Sherpa community would have something to say about tripping a bunch of Sherpas (because it’s not ‘crash-tested’ unless you crash at least ten Sherpas, right?).
It feels like maybe we’re not getting through to you. We’re pretty sure the ‘crash tested’ designation refers specifically to the pet carrier. The soft-sided pet house is super cozy. It gives your furry friends their own space, and it looks cute to boot.
‘To boot,’ you say? Is that what you used to push all these Sherpas into these pet products? With the heel of your boot?
No, it’s just… never mind.
Is the joke where we misunderstand Sherpa to be a reference to the actual people rather than the brand name getting old?
Yes.
Okay, then let’s talk about that backpack. We understand that it’s intended for pets, but does that mean that if we were to put something else in it, that would be our pet? Like, if we put a book in it, would we refer henceforth to that as our ‘Pet Book’?
Okay, well, this angle’s even weirder, honestly.
