My human got these wooden folk art cats when she was in Austin for New Year’s Eve a few years back. As you can see, I don’t really like them. I was told in no uncertain terms that they were not cat toys, so can you blame me?

But just so I didn’t seem too querulous, I agreed to pose nicely. For about a minute.













How about you look at them as cat friends, Sparkle? ;b
Imagine my poor cats they have to share their life with around 450 other cats some of them also are also wooden !
Sometimes you have to do the “right” thing, Sparkle!
Good girl Sparkle for posting with those other cats. They are very nice looking cats and wooden too. That is special. Hope all of you have a great week end.
You are a gracious lady!
Wooden you just love to give them a whap???
If your human couldn’t get the pictures she needed in a minute, then it is not your fault, Sparkle. You cooperated just fine. Mom LIKES your wooden folk art kitties!
I like what Simba said..he is completely correct in the matter, and it’s your human’s role to get ‘er done with no wasted Sparkle time.
You were very cooperative Sparkle – don’t know what your ooman is complaining about. pfffft.
All you’d have seen from us was our tails!
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
oh, our mom thinks those wooden kitties are cute. We’d love to play with the fisher cats fish! Your brief pose is a nice picture, Sparkle. Have a great weekend!
Pip, Smidgen, MInnie, Hollie
We adore your catitude, but you are the real art in those photos, gorgeous Sparkle=nothing compares to you, lovely girl!…Happy weekend sweet friends…kisses…Calle, Halle, Sukki
Did you whack them off?!?!? That’s what we’d do!!!
I would have pushed them off the table! I think you were furry patient to pose wif those cute cats.
Lol. But I love your pose on the second shot.
My entries for Wooden are here and here.
What pretty wooden cats! Course, if you can’t play wif them, what good are they?
Nice shots! reminds me of my old maine coon cat, dakota..r.i.p
But I bet they make a wonderful clattering splat kind of sound when you knock them off the dresser.
How cute!!!!!!!!!!!
xxxxxxx
You’re better than me. Whenever TW wants me to pose with some new toy or something, I either walk away, or turn away. BTW, we said the same thing about Willow being lucky that the NYC ACC actually checked her for microchip before offing her.
those are too cool!
Wow Sparkle… I can’t imagine that you could possibly look any more annoyed if you tried. Stupid wooden cats….
You are such a good sport Sparkle! We would have whapped them off that cabinet or at least unhooked that fish!
Actually, I DID try to eat that fish… that’s when I was told these things weren’t cat toys.
What pretty poses you have with your old-time friends, even if you don’t like them.
Look at it this way, when you do play & whap with them, they won’t whap back!!!
Absolutely love it! Made me LOL!
Here’s My Photo
Sparkle, we know exactly what you were thinking in that first picture. And we would’ve done it.
Um, which one is you? (just kidding)
Dear Sparkle-mummy,
EVERYTHING is a cat toy. Unless it is in a locked cupboard.
Sincerely,
Rumbles
Sparkle, with the way you are looking at them, we’re surprised they are still sitting there and aren’t on the floor.
Sparkle! I love your photos!
That is very magnanimous of you, Sparkle. I’m impressed you didn’t knock the wooden cats onto the floor (Melly would’ve).
A minutes was very generous!
You have a pirate ship????
Well Sparkle it only goes to show that there’s nothing as gorgeous as the Real Furry One.
Wow, I love those! My favorite the one sitting

Indeed! Anything you “must” pose with IS a cat toy. SO go ahead and do what you were thinking about doing.
Thank you for your comment on Jet’s post on House Panthers.
