We hope that all of you who were celebrating had a great holiday yesterday. We didn’t get to celebrate until evening, but it was worth the wait!
Newton: I — I mean we — got a stuffed cricket that makes exciting cricket noises whenever you move it. Or bite it. Or shake it. Or BITE it.
I heard the rumor that this was going to be a daytime toy only because it makes noise, so I’m planning to hide it under the sofa. Don’t tell anybody, all right? How else are we going to show our appreciation for the gift at three in the morning?
Pierre: This gift bag is full of the best gift of all… me!
We heard that the indoor tree is going away tomorrow, so we are going to enjoy that tonight, too. We hope all of you find ways to make holiday mischief, as well. After all, there’s no one saying you can’t be naughty any more. Time to live it up, right?
Melissa says
That cricket looks pawsome! Tree down tomorrow??? Boo!!!
Texas, a cat in... Austin says
We have a little rudolph mousie that makes noises too! But so far the humans weren’t able to take it from us during the night ๐
Have fun!
Mark's Mews says
Cricket noises??? Of wow, we dint ask fer the right stuffs!!!
Jobi and Fisher says
Oh boy – we can’t wait to hear what happens when you set off the Cricket in the wee hours of the morning!
Whisppy says
A stuffed cricket that talks? We have a stuffed bird that chirps and a stuffed mouse that squeaks (that Mommy made Daddy bring home from the US) and what did we do? We won’t even touch them. Hah!
Hannah and Lucy says
Mum would love to have a gift bag containing you Pierre but not the chirping cricket.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
The Island Cats says

Have fun!

That toy looks like lot of fun !
I won’t say a word about where you are going to hide it ๐
Annie says
A stuffed cricket that makes noise. Awesome! Pierre looks so cute in the bag. Did you all get into some mischief?
Flynn says
That cricket sounds like lots of fun. Our tree stays up until Twelfth Night.
Fur Everywhere says
We think that’s a fantastic idea, Newton! Make sure your human knows how much you love your new toy. We won’t tell anyone where you hide it! ๐
We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!!
Purrs,

Oooh that cricket toy sounds like FUN! Our momma told us to tell you she uses a Sony NEX-F3 with an 18-85 lens.
It has the fastest shutter speed of almost any DSLR and the sensor is almost full size (it’s a 23.5 mm, if we recall).
When she changes the shutter speed to 1/800 she can catch us mid-leap!
They’re very reasonably priced, and unless you’re planning to get a Nikon D-600 or a Canon 5D, this would be what we recommend. And the price is right, too: under $300.
Rascal and Rocco says
bags are the best toys! Hope you had a fabulous Christmas!
Glogirly, Katie & Waffles says

Caren Gittleman says
you got that right! Live it up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PS:cut the handles off of the bag xoxo
Sometimes, Cats Herd You says
We always have handles cut off of bags when we are unsupervised. This post and the next one are photos from Christmas, where we wren’t allowed to stay in the bags. We have a handle-less shopping bag on the floor right now… which we are, of course, ignoring.
Clooney says
Whoa, that cricket sounds awesome! Neytiri likes Pierre’s gift bag too…she loves big bags.
Athena says
That bag looks fun!
