Either my human is stubborn, or thick-headed, or both because once again, she brought home yet another dumb, cheap Easter toy from the drugstore. And you would have thought Friday’s post might have shamed her into trying something different.
She thought this assortment of spring-y Easter toys would make for some festive holiday fun for us cats. But it did not. At least she ditched the baskets — even she is not silly enough to think we would try and catch those toys in them.
As you can tell, I was not having any. My human tried to get video of me playing with the spring-y things, but there was a problem: I did not want to play with them. So she tried them on Binga. The result was not much better… at least she stayed in the same frame with them for a few seconds.
(If you cannot see the video above you can watch all 15 seconds of it here.)
Oh well. There is always next year.
🙁 This post made me sad. This is something that I or my mother would have bought for our cats, wanting nothing more than to make them happy. Your poor lady was just trying to do something nice for you, Sparkle. You should appreciate the gesture. Make her happy and take away some of her guilt for spending money on something frivolous by at least batting them around a little. TRY to look intrigued.
Those humans, thinking they know about our fun needs. We have a whole box of unused toys in the closet. Sometimes Mom brings them out and tries to present them as “all new” toys. Hmmmph. As if we’re dumb or unable to smell our smells already on them. I (Baby) would be scared by those boingy toys, and Jack would just be annoyed. But Mom did recently get a free little really nip-stinky toy for contributing to rescue cats, and I love it. I keep it with me in my little box.
Our Mom bought that chick for us to play with. As you saw, the woofie Cubby liked it. We just walked away!!

Binga is BRAVE! Those springy things are scary.
Happy Easter to all!
Hee hee, I rather liked Binga’s attitude… maybe I should cattitude.
MOL=Binga is a brave beauty=we would have gone running for the hills if one of those things jumped at us!!…Happy Easter, precious friends…kisses…Calle, Halle, Sukki
We don’t think we’d have played with them either Sparkle but at least your mom tried – ours didn’t even think of getting us a present – the meanie.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Well, at least your human got you a toy. What did we get for Easter?? Nothing.
We’ll try to have a happy one in spite of it.
Happy Easter friends!!!
Wow, Binga is BRAVE! We would’ve been under the bed if those things jumped up at us! 🙂
Happy Easter, dear friends. 🙂
Too bad the toys were too silly!!!!
At least your Mom tried 😉
Happy Easter !!!!!!!!!!

Well, we wouldn’t have liked that either. It is kind of like being bombed. Hope all of you have a very Happy Easter without those toys.
Those seem cool. I heard the noise on mommy’s computer and tried to find out what was going on.

They never learn do they? Happy Easter anyway!
You need to work part time as a toy tester Sparkle, that would probably help a lot! Happy Easter from all of us to all of you!
We have come to the conclusion that Humans are severely stunted, brain-wise. As you saw from our post, they are also possesed of sick humor.
Happy Easter ANYWAY from alla us at the Katnip Lounge–let’s hope for HAM!
I never have problems with my easter presents to the kitties…maybe that’s because I give them things like rabbit’s feet and hare faces from the flyfishing store…
Sparkle – your human was only trying to make you happy.
Well, they had potential but they were just a little too springy we guess. Binga going to lay down and watch them made us chuckle!
Well, Sparkle, you know what I got? NOTHING. That’s what.
Still, that is a pretty lame toy I have to agree.
The best part was when Binga just sighed and went to lay down again, MOL!!
Happy Easter, anyway, Kittehs! Well, and your Humans, too, even if they did FAIL. And they did.
Binga
*wow*
Those were some springy toys!
Love your loveseat!
Have a furry hoppy Easter!

Happy Easter, friends!
I hear you pal. But, at least your oooman made the attempt to get you something. I didn’t get nothing for Easter. I am very sad too! The ooman here is trying to use the excuse that I don’t like anything she buys anyway, so why bother! Sigh!
Happy Easter Anyway!
We hope yoo all had a really super Easter anyway!
Love Milo and Alfie xx
OMC! You should has made her checkout our Easter section my furriend. You could has gotten a cool talking chick dat goes peep peep peep peep MOL
Binga was furry brave with all dem things popping, I would has run for cover!
Hey hey hey HAH! They never learn. The only thing that halfway interests me about Easter is that long plastic grass they put in the baskets and this year they put PAPER grass in! Woe is the pussycat.
