Undercover Toy Again

Posted on July 31, 2014 by Oldcat

Today I brought out the “Undercover Mouse” toy for the kittens to play with.  Rhea was fascinated… Although she did slack off so much as to lie down most of the time playing. Julie watched them playing from the side. … Continue reading →

Games for Two

Posted on July 29, 2014 by Oldcat

But not at the same time.  But Davout is very good about taking turns. They start with simple swatting at the seed pod… Ditto…. Then the all-out lunge for the prize! Ditto!!

Snips and Snails

Posted on July 28, 2014 by Oldcat

Pineapple Upside Down Cat. Earlier I went outside to find Davout practicing his lurking skills.  Where’s Waldo? When I spotted him he moved to another place of concealment. Rhea thinks this is hilarious!

Another hot day but we got some evening clouds. It cooled off some and I picked a grass seed stem to play with. It cannot be resisted. Talk to the Claw. Kitty Tongue!

Hot Town

Posted on July 24, 2014 by Oldcat

Its hot tonight.  Rhea is staying by the open window.  There’s a shuttling fan nearby but this spot is out of the direct flow. This spot isn’t.  Poor Davout keeps getting his fluff blown into his face when the breeze … Continue reading →

Today was the day dedicated for a solo photoshoot startting…Davout! Nice.  I especially like how that foreground prop really sets off your dark points.  Where did you find that? Oh. Director?  Does this look casual enough for you?  Totally natural! Nothing … Continue reading →

Cats Out Back

Posted on July 22, 2014 by Oldcat
