Cats Herd You

Yet again Pierre, the master of disguise, finds the perfect striped shadow to camouflage himself. What a stealthy boy!

Cousin Nellie is showing Cousin Earl how to play one of her favorite iPad games: Games for Cats.

She is an excellent whapper when it comes to electronic mice or the red bug. Her favorite is the butterfly.

She has certainly shown him how to attack whatever is on the screen.

Perhaps whapping with only one front leg is more difficult than she anticipated.

He does look like he wants to go after that little mouse. Perhaps this just isn’t the best game for him.

A small candy shaped nip toy on clearance at the pet store was hard to pass up.

It seemed that the nip wasn’t very strong.

Pierre has always had a fondness for it and he wasn’t very interested.

Newton, however, thought it was much more fascinating.

It is possible nip had nothing to do with it, but he was having a heck of a time batting it around!

It wasn’t giving any playback, like rolling or making noise, so something was keeping his attention…

Until the inevitable (and should be patented) Newton Photobomb!

On January 3rd, 2009, we welcomed a little, orange ball of fur into our home. None of us (or the house) would ever be the same again.
