A Story about a Cat and his Dangly Thing.

Once upon a time there lived a sweet & innocent somewhat strange kitten teenage cat called Oscar. One day, his momma personal slave recieved a parcel from her dear friend Kirby. Inside that parcel, nestled snugly up against the Twilight books that had been kindly sent across the shores, was a cat toy.

It looked a little something like this:



That toy, my friends, was attached to a cord, which in turn was attached to a stick. It dangles. It is a toy of dangly goodness. It also jingles. The girl couldn't wait to get home and give it to her slightly insane cat.

At first, he feigned indifference:



After a while though, the curiosity killed the cat eventually took over:



And soon turned into a sort-of fixed and slightly evil obsession:





After approximately ten minutes, the pair had an inseparable bond. They also appeared to share the same exact facial expression:



The toy from Aunty Kirby was a vast success. The girl has not yet been able to pry it out of Oscar's paws for the last week or so, and has more than once  complained about the jingly noise that goes along with it. The hero of our story is not concerned by this, and instead blows raspberries in their general direction:


The End.

  7. I miss when Fizz was young enough to play with toys! He'd just look at it, or want me to play while he watches.

  11. I don't give my cats cat toys anymore. They need to learn to play with the things around them.

    And also, they just push all the toys under the couch anyway.
