He just wasn't used to getting gifts like this. Certainly not for no reason, just because someone was out and about and thought of him. At the insinuation that he wasn't as cute right now, Dio gave a huff and snort, turning back into his usual, human(looking) form, his hands in front of his junk to keep his modesty as he frowned at Joseph, nude.

"Excuse you, Joseph, I am that cute all of the time!" he responded, offended. It wasn't really offended, but still, Joseph bought him... cat stuff. It was only then that he realized that Joseph hadn't seen him as himself since he got here, so he supposed thinking that he was stuck in that form was slightly warranted.

Without any further protest, he took the things from Joseph, looking over the collar first before curiosity struck him with the tied-off package. "Ah... wha- what is that?"

It smelled pretty good, but not in any way Dio was familiar with. It was kind of minty, even from the distance he was at.
