Laugh. Learn. Love cats.
Newton: Woo-hoo, this has FEATHERS!
Newton: And it’s mine, Ashton. Don’t get any ideas.
Ashton: I’m way over here, don’t mind me.
Newton: I see the way that you’re looking at my toy. You can’t have it.
Ashton: I don’t want it. You put mancat slobber on it already.
Newton: Mine. All mine!
Newton: Excuse us. My feather toy need some privacy over here.
We hope you have some fun this Caturday, too!
Once upon a time, there was a window…
And outside the window, something was on cat TV.
But the cat TV was turned off.
(Please forgive the static on the cat TV. The window screen got the rough end of the recent construction.)
When all of a sudden…
Ashton: Is there something out there?
Ashton: *Nnnnngth*
Ashton: Ooh, the duck channel!
Ashton: And the peep-standing-in-the-yard channel, too. Hello out there!
Ashton: I know you’re going to come inside. Would you mind bringing one of the ducks with you?
The head peep thought she was going to be able to get a new photo of us to use in our blog’s banner, but we wouldn’t all turn around at the same time for a snapshot. Behold, the back of Pierre’s head.
This is just one of the many ways we illustrate the saying “it’s like herding cats.”
The head peep is off in the Catmobile to help drive a transport of kittens today, so we’re going to do some power-napping. Check out Your Daily Cute and the Cute Transport Network to find out how to get updates on the transport in progress, and we will let her tell you more about it on Monday.
The The Natural Pet Company asked if we would like to review their cat toys and catnip, and since we are experts on both toys and catnip, we said we would love to try them out.
Newton and Pierre: What’s this?
Pierre: It smells like catnip… maximum strength.
Pierre: Yessssss!
Newton: It smells good. But how do open it? I don’t have thumbs.
Newton: Ooooh… new toys? For me?
Photographer: Wait, wait, I want a photo of —
Newton: ARGH! No waiting! This is awesome!
Newton: It has a string, and I’m going to undo it since you’re so slow!
Strangely, the string wasn’t threaded through the end of the stick.
Newton: It wasn’t my fault!
It was easy to thread through and tie into a simple knot, whether it was Newton’s fault or not.
Newton: Mine!
Pierre: This has feathers! I’m giving it the bitey!
Newton: The toy package also contained this thing that had ribbons on it. Ribbons! And a bell! OMC!
Pierre: And there was a mouse made all out of stuff that feels like the sisal on my cat tree. This thing rules!
Newton: I’m not sharing!
Newton: Wait, what are you doing to the toy with the ribbon. Ooh, that smells good…
Newton: I thought this toy was good before. Now it’s just dreamy.
Pierre: I admit it. I inhale catnip. A lot.
Ashton: This was so tempting even I came out of scaredy-cat hiding to play with it!
Newton: If there’s catnip in the air, there it must be time for a smackdown!
The toys and catnip from The Natural Pet Company were a real success, and as you can see, everybody enjoyed them. The toys were a lot more durable than they looked at first glance, which we appreciate, since we are kind of rough with toys. Thanks to the Natural Pet Company for the opportunity to give them a test drive. We’ll be getting a lot more fun play time out of these toys and catnip!
Disclosure: The Natural Pet Company provided toys and catnip for review, but all opinions are our own.
