It's more of a collection process. He takes fruit, mostly bananas because that's what we buy the most, and stashes them behind my TV. Imagine this conversation, "Honey, were are the apples I bought yesterday?"

Me: "Hold on." At this point I'm moving the DVD player and the PS2 out from under the TV.

"Found them, did you want apples or bananas?"

Yeah... you should see my apartment. It's full of places where the boys stash things.

It can drive you crazy at times.

It was soooo cute! 8-Bit is now sitting behind me with his banana. Life is good.

Dr. Claw's previous owners are a piece of work, because they really didn't believe in kitty toys. After Dr. Claw discovered that the crinkle balls were for him he purred and gave me the sweetest look.

I think he's going to like it here.
What's a crinkle ball?

I just found your posts about your new kitty and I'm reading them now.

It's a ball of stiff foil that makes noise when kitties bat at it. Also, as I found out last night, they stick to kitties when they roll over on them.

How does the kitty react to such a ball sticking to them?

Dr. Claw just sat there with three of them sicking all over his little patchy body. It made him look slightly silly and very cute. He didn't really know how to react, because I don't think he's ever interacted with a toy like that.

I went to the Kitty Store today and after spending $130.00 I am home. We needed another Feliway diffuser, but I went a little crazy with the toys, and treats.
I was saving that money for a pair of Ugg boots, but I figured it was better spent spoiling my boys.

I just hope all this snow melts soon so I can justify why I didn't buy the boots!

He's been wonderful around Dr. Claw by giving him head-butts and guarding him from Scratch.


Today was the first day I was surrounded by a cat mob. I made the mistake of trying to make a tuna sandwich.

Wow, that's awesome that Bit is buddies with Dr Claw already!!!! I know Bit and Scratch weren't exactly best of friends, but I hope Scratch doesn't feel left out! I worry about that with my 3 sometimes....

Sounds as though things are going very smoothly, I'm so pleased for you
