Fun and Games

Ever snce we set up the new play zone for the furrballs, Pixie has sorta staked her claim on it. She'll even try to keep him out. Well it worked. He started to avoid it all together. Poor Boobooboy...and he was so excited when it came out of the package. So I found a way to get him back in. :)

Both Oreo and Pixie LOVE bouncy balls. You know, those little bouncing balls or super balls? I rarely bring them out because they usually get lost under furniture. But the cubes and the tumbler (tent looking portion) all require the cat to go through a circle opening, so there's a barrier that'd prevent the balls from rolling out. So I put one ball in the tumbler and one in a cube. Both babies LOVED it. After playing, Oreo even took to just sitting in the tumbler. :) It was so funny, too. He'd bat at the ball. It'd roll around. He'd try and catch it as it bounced around in there. Then he'd bat at it again. And every now and then the dangling strings would hit his head and he'd stop to bat at those, too! :P The cycle would go round and round. And he and Pix would play so hard, that they'd move the whole thing all over the place without ever leaving their respective bouncy ball chambers.

And here they are playing together. :D Adorable, right?

We trimmed Pixie's claws the other day, and boy did that make a huge change! Mom's been so worrid that Pix was sick cuz she wasn't playing and she was so whiny. But man, she's been running all over the place now! It's not the first time we've done it, but as Mom dreads accidently clipping too close to sensitive parts of the claw she puts it off so long. Poor girl had curled claws that probably hurt to run on. Oreo's quick(?) is longer than Pixie's so, Mom's gonna wait til we get those emery boards for cats.

Anywho... it's past midnight and I still have to put clean sheets on my bed and wash dishes...  Toodles!
