Mancat Monday with Cousins Earl and Shep

Cousins Earl and Shep got a new Da Bird, and they’re putting it through its paces.

Cousin Shep shows his mastery of Da Bird, and he doesn’t want to let it go.

Not to be outdone, Cousin Earl goes after those tempting feathers, too.

Then Cousin Earl moves in for the kill!

Remember our X? The X in the photo above is the same one, after we gave it to Cousins Earl and Shep, who are enjoying it more than we did.


We’re sorry if the head peep doesn’t make it around to visit many blogs today. She has a bug — and not the kind you can chase across the floor, either! We will put Nurse Newton on the case, and we will send her back to visit your blogs as soon as she’s better.

    Glad you are having fun with da bird. My two don’t have one as all feathery things seem to end up de feathered too quickly.

    YeS! I like learning about Earl and Shep. I like their names. Also, we keep calling our Ess and Ess now. Tell the head peeps to feel better! – Crepes.

    Hey. How come our Da Bird feathers seem shorter than what you have!?

    We hope your Assistant Peep doesn’t have to chase the Head Peep round the room to medicate her! Heehee.

    They’ve got excellent form for this Olympic sport! I don’t have a Da Dird but just got a Bird Catcher Pro which is pawsome. Hope your Staff feels better soon.

    Oh you tell Nurse Newton to take GOOD care of the head peep and to make her all better VERY soon! And your cousins show quite a lot of prowess there!

    If we saw Cousin Earl coming at us with his mouth open like that, we would be running for our lives. He sure looks fierce. Extra purrs for your mom. Purrs and paw-pats, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
