Sadly, There were No Smacky Paws of Doom

February 18, 2013 By: Sparkle Cat49 Comments

Sigh... just take the photo so we can get this thing open!
As some of you may recall, I won a, um, “felted spirally toy” from my pal Spitty, when my acronym SPOD (Smacky Paws of Doom) came in second in his poll. (And I want to mention that Mr. Puddy’s First Place entry, TTTP — Talk To The Paw — was awesome!) Anyhow, my prize arrived the other day!

Share?! Heh.
It came with a note that read thusly: “Hi Sparkle, Here’s your prize… finally! We hope you have fun with it. Maybe you should share it with Binga and Boodie – you kow you want to! Heh-Heh, xoxo, Spitty”

Actually there were no SPODs - just a very unfriendly head butt.
Yeah, well, sharing is really sort of a foreign concept around here.

Toy hog!
With Binga around, nokitty could get a paw in edgewise!

At least she can hog this and leave me alone!
In an attempt to give me a “Binga-break,” my human pulled out the CatAmazing, which still had a few treats in it. The treats immediately took away Binga’s attention!

A kitty can't catch a break, y'know?
But then, look who shows up!

She was serious about killing that toy!
Yeah, with that face, I don’t think I wanted to get between her and that spirally toy. Well, thanks for the prize anyway, Spitty — I assume I will get to play with it eventually.

I bet she cheats at solitaire too.
Incidentally, Binga cheats when she plays with the CatAmazing.

    I understand you Sparkle, it’s hard to keep toys for oneself ! There is always a sibling who will put her paws on it ! I have never seen such a CatAmazing ! Must be fun to play with !

    That spring looks like TONS of fun!!!
    Of course I’d need to LOCK Waffles Too in the CatAmazing box.
    And throw away the key.

    Sparkle you were very restrained to not do SPOD even though it was your gift that your sisters claimed as their own. Give time maybe when you have treats next time you will get to play with it.

    I’m glad it arrived Sparkle, and it stands up to a lot of abuse, so I think it’ll still be good to play with once the Mean Girls get finished with it, MOL.
