Toys and Tortitude on Thursday

March 3, 2011 By: Sparkle Cat35 Comments

Well, look at this! A box arrived on my doorstep from Moderncat Studio!

And look at this! Someone has shown up to annoy me!

That cat can smell good catnip from the bedroom wing!

That’s right, Binga, just dig right in!

Hello! Whose blog is this anyway?

Admittedly, it is hard to blame her — look at the pawsome selection of toys they sent us!

Toys for DAYS!

Even so, I have to say that Binga’s behavior was nothing less than amazing. And not in a good way.

Aren't humans making fun of Charlie Sheen right now for behaving like this?
 
This is SO embarrassing!

Not surprisingly, she grabbed a Modkicker and went ballistic!

The fastest bunny kicks in the West!

While she was busy I decided to stalk a Jingle Jute Bomb.

Jingle Jute Bomb, prepare to die!

Although I had to thwart a thievery attempt!

Someone is about to get the Paw of Disrespect

And if it wasn’t Binga, it was my human sticking the camera in my face, expecting me to be playful and cute. I can’t get any peace around here.

I would play with these if you would LEAVE ME ALONE!!

I think there is only one place I can play with my new toys in peace!

Maybe I should be safe and put up a "No Trespassers" sign!

Note: Moderncat sent us these toys to try out for my blog… and we had a blast!

    Looks like Binga needs some catitude adjusting and you’re just the cat to do it. Love that pic where you look so annoyed.

    Poor Sparkle! I think you are would do well as an Only Kitty. Couldn’t you get rid of those interlopers? No? Well, it was just an idea, MOL!

    So that looks like fun stuff! And do you know what? I won a prize from them! How pawesome is THAT? The Human says it should come in the mail pretty quick. I can’t WAIT!

    These photos are good, and whether you like the camera in your face or not, your mom did a good job of capturing you in your quest to get at what’s in that box. What a great find!

    Those toys look fantastic! I’m gonna have my mom check them out.

    I’m thinking it would be fun to have a CB bunnykick contest. Who really is the fastest bunnykicker out there? I’d enter my momma Ellie for sure!

    Binga, I like you very very much..We have the same taste, I will chose a Modkicker too. I love love to do BUNNY KICK !
