When I saw the drama unfolding, I grabbed my camera, but unfortunately, I hadn't returned the settings to normal, after photographing Christmas lights. Oops! Ah well, I thought it was an amusing bit of drama, despite the blurry overexposure:)
I hope you enjoyed this presentation, brought to you by Luke and Leah.
#1 - Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:52 PM ESTIt's amazing how cats can fold themselves into places. Cool pics.
#2 - Sat Dec 31, 2011 3:02 PM ESTLMAO!!!! What a wonderful photo essay of Kitty drama. Love it. :) ((((Etva))))
#6 - Sat Dec 31, 2011 3:57 PM ESTReminds me of the time my mom locked me in grandma's old trunk. I remember like it was yesterday, putting my mouth by the old key hole to get fresh air. If it wasn't for my imagination i would have never lasted the 10 hours at a time. Finally at 17 i was big enough to put a stop to it. To this day i don't east rice krispies. That was all my sisters could fit through the key hole.
#7 - Sat Dec 31, 2011 4:00 PM ESTFor me, growing up in the orphanage was about as bad. The only thing I got for Christmas that I can remember was an orange. I love oranges.
occasionally the let me unwrap tamales on Christmas. I still like them today though.
Wonderful photo story! Beautiful cats too. Are they from the same litter?
#8 - Sat Dec 31, 2011 4:16 PM ESTCats sure can provide the entertainment, can't they! That's an adorable set of photos.
#10 - Sat Dec 31, 2011 5:09 PM ESTThanks etva, the last picture in particular reminds me of a cat that owned me.
Ivan was his name and his coloring was the same as your owner.
He was fearless, and a friend to all, I sure miss him and have for over fifteen years.
#13 - Sat Dec 31, 2011 6:16 PM ESTFantastic!!!!
Is it possible to die of acute "cuttitis"... Mal feels a overwhelmed by a strange feeling of fondness for felines...
#14 - Sat Dec 31, 2011 6:21 PM ESTCute, cute, cute!! Cat's in boxes are hilarious to watch and a play by play is priceless! Your cats look like a couple of my cats :)
#15 - Sat Dec 31, 2011 6:54 PM ESTOh too funny!! What a great series you captured!! Number 5 could be used in a cola commercial. These were great. Happy New Year (((etva)))! Priceless!
#16 - Sat Dec 31, 2011 8:22 PM ESTEtva, thanks for a great story in pictures.
A few years ago, my cat gave me four little presents, and those little orange tabby kittens got into everything! One day, I heard scratching and mewing sounds coming from a soft drink box, and low and behold, there were four little tails sticking out of the box's opening; they'd stalked a ball, chased it all over the place, and finally cornered it in the box, but nobody wanted to be the first to actually capture it. Well, one little adventurer got up his courage, fought off his brothers, and emerged, victorious, a ball in his mouth that was almost as big as he was!
#17 - Sat Dec 31, 2011 8:27 PM ESTGreat photo story. My poor little kitty seems to have been born without the cardboard box gene. Maybe when he gets older he'll learn the joys of enclosed cardboard.
#18 - Sat Dec 31, 2011 10:46 PM ESTHave you tried the paper bag yet? Cut some small holes in one and throw a toy in there and watch it go.....and watch your hands, lol!
You know the toy on a string? Well, place the toy, ball, whatever, on the floor, then put a newspaper (packing paper works great, too) on top. Pull the string, very slowly, and watch the cat go nuts! They think it's a bug or mouse, or whatever, and they'll shred the paper to capture the toy. It's a fun way to play with the cat.
You can also put a marble in a small cardboard box, then nudge the box with your finger or toe. The ball will roll around, and the cat'll perk up its ears, and get to hunting.
I tried the paper bag thing but just ended up with a shredded bag. He's only 3 months old so I think he'll calm down a bit and just play in them eventually.
Oh gosh, what a great series of pics and captions!! Loved it!
#19 - Sun Jan 1, 2012 12:57 AM ESTI don't know what it is about cats and boxes, but they sure do like 'em. They find all those little hidden spaces. It's hard for me to think of cats as pets, they've got their own personalities and have their own agendas, which usually involve snacks and petting. Actually, that's my agenda, too. :P
#20 - Sun Jan 1, 2012 3:50 AM ESTThey are so adorable!
Mine like boxes too.
Strangely enough, no box is ever too small!
Lol
#21 - Sun Jan 1, 2012 4:02 AM ESTOne of my parent's cats is really big but insists in trying to sleep in impossibly small boxes. He looks like a potted plant sometimes. :)
Kitty drama is no laughing matter. These two otherwise fine specimens obviously have some unresolved emotional issues... involving an empty soda can box. It's a travesty, really.
Adorable kitties, etva. Thanks for the laugh. Happy New Year.
:)
