Catio Crasher (and a Pop Quiz!)

March 12, 2013 By: Sparkle Cat42 Comments

Guess where my human was over the weekend? I will give you a clue:

Who DOESN'T know this catio?

That’s right! She was at the Katnip Lounge catio! She was in Las Vegas because her boyfriend was playing a show there on Fremont Street. Even though he was too busy to visit the catio with her, I am happy to report he did dress for the occasion.

Check out those pants!

But enough of him. Let’s get to the important stuff: my pals! Grayce was hanging out on a scratcher when my human arrived.

She was not moving from there, not even with an intruder afoot

May Ling wanted my human to know not to mess with the tortie Meezer! Although she was generally agreeable, as long as the camera wasn’t pointed in her direction.

Maybe she wanted Binga to know she too could do the crazy tortie face!

Rupert and Felix were much more willing to pose for the paparazzi.

My human wishes I was so easy.

Felix's wistful pose

Quill’s human showed up too! She and the Katnip Lounge human talked while my human prowled the house and catio, in search of willing victims. There was drama, like when Sweet Pea occupied the cat tree, against the wishes of Felix!

SweetPea has just realized she made a big mistake

Maui was ever-present.

I think Maui was taking posing lessons from Felix

As was The Baby. My human tried to get arty with her.

There is an awesome outtake of The Baby! But it is not in this post.

There were photobombs galore!

Photobomb 1

Photobomb 2

Photobomb 3

But out of all the Katnip Lounge kitties, my human’s favorite was… Salem!

Photos don't do her justice

Yes, she is as round in person as she is in photos, but she is really a very tiny cat! Small, like me, only not narrow.

Catching some awesome rays!

She spent the most time around my human and even played with her camera strap.

My human wanted to take her home

Now for the pop quiz! I am going to ask you some questions about the photos, and the first reader to answer all the questions right will get a little package of goodies from me! You have until next Monday, March 18! So if you do not know the Katnip Lounge kitties, you have time to meet them, because it will help you make the right answers. Here goes:

1. In the picture of Grayce (the third photo from the top), how many cats are there total? Who are they?

2. My human photographed 9 of the 13 Katnip Lounge cats. Which ones are missing? (Hint: one of the cats photographed is not mentioned by name.)

3. Who are the three photobombing kitties?

4. Which cat appears in the most photographs?

Bonus tiebreaker (in case there is a tie): Out of the four cats my human did not get pictures of, there was only one she actually got to touch. Which one of the missing cats is it? It’s a bonus question because you pretty much have to guess!

Good luck! I hope you have fun with the pop quiz!

    Maybe the tiny bit of ginger we see in Q#1 is CC and not Felix. There is also a picture of a cat on the scratcher.

    OMC! Its like dying and going to kitty heaven, visiting THE Catio! Here’s our try:

    1 – 5 kitties: Grayce, Sweet Pea, Maui, May Ling, Felix
    2 – Sylvester, CC, Scouty & Johnson
    3 – Rupert, Salem & The Baby
    4 – Salem
    5 – Johnson? We know it couldn’t be Scouty. NO body touches the Scouty!

    What is the name of your boy friend’s band? Aren’t we nosy?

    I can’t begin to guess and I visit Katnip Lounge all the time. I think that’s Grayce, the Baby, May Ling and Maui in the first picture. I won’t even try the rest. Your human musta been in cat heaven meeting that entire krew.

    Our mommy is so jealous of your human! Of course our mommy wants to visit the catio on her way to LA to see you, Binga and Boodie too! We didn’t see Sylvester, Scouty, CC or Johnny. We are guessing your human got to pet Sylvester. Salem did most of the photobombing!

    Oh Wow, what fun to visit the Katnip cats. Does Trish get to guess too??? Our Person can’t keep track of all of us, so she sure doesn’t know who was in what pictures. But it looks like Eric and Flynn have a good guess. That was great fun though. And another great blogger meeting took place. Have a great day.

    What a great visit your human had. Here are our answers.
    1. We think there are 6 kitties altogether who are: Grayce, Maui,Sweet Pea, The Baby,May Ling, and we can see a tiny bit of ginger behind Grayce who we think might be Felix.
    2. Kona Kitty is not mentioned by name but we think might be in the first photo, so that leaves Tiny Johnson, CC, Scouty and Sylvester missing.
    3. We think the photo bombs are by Rupert, Salem and Sweet Pea.
    4. Salem is in the most photos.
    5. We will go for Tiny Johnson as the one your human got to touch who is not in the photos.

        Hmmm We still think there are 6 kitties in the first photo. It looks like The Baby could be in the blue cat tree at the back. We don’t really want to change any answers apart from the last one. As you said, it could be any of them that your Human touched so we will try Sylvester instead. We are sure it wouldn’t be Scouty.
