The boys love their Neko toys, so they were very excited when they heard Doug (the human one) ordered the latest one! The boys waited patiently for days for it to show up.
Dougy heard the mail carrier coming…! Will this be the day?!
Yes, it turned out the toy arrived in the mail, finally!
Of course, the box the toy came in was a big hit, too! Andy finally got to play in it.
I love that first picture.
The boys are very, very, very snoopy! Oftentimes, I learn about traffic coming my way because they react to it first.
I’ve had human neighbors like that. It’s cuter in a cat 🙂
LOL! 🙁 I know what you mean! Kitties don’t speculate and talk. (Most of the time. LOL!)
Thank goodness that the two boys finally got what they wanted. And then play with it. 🙂
Dougy still plays more with it than Andy. In fact, every morning (“Evvvvvery moooooorning…!”, spoken with weary resignation) he pesters me till I take it out and play with him till he’s tired. This is the very first thing I’ve had to do since the toy arrived. Then, off and on during the day, he whines to let me know he still wants to play with that new toy! Dougy is a real whiner, too. He learned just the right amount of whine to add to really irritate humans into action. It’s easier to do his bidding than to think he’s going away if you ignore him! 🙁
Great video too!
Andy got over his snit and played like a kitten yesterday when I brought the toy out again. He can be very moody!
Glad you enjoyed it! Andy can be moody, but he got over it later and played with the toy like a proper kitty.
What a great picture of Dougy waiting for the mail carrier!
Ha! Ha! The boys do this any time they hear someone or something coming down the lane. They are my distant early warning system.
Is Dougy as white and gray underneath as he looks on the video? I didn”t think so and thought it was just lightening. Ali looks every color from red to gray to light brown in some of her photos.
Oldest son got Ali this toy too and it is a total hit. She is hiding to day after getting shaved and blood work done at the vets Friday.
The way the light hits the boys changes how light that underside hair looks, but they are both a lovely light gray underneath. It shows up more when they are groomed.
That was very good of your son to get Ali that toy! Both of my cats really, really, really like Neko wand toys, too. Any time I can get them a toy they actually play with, it’s a victory, and these are a consistent hit with them. After what’s she’s been through (and goes through!), Ali deserves to have a little fun and recreation, eh?!
Glad they both got a turn. Please visit us for a chance to win a stuffed grumpy cat.
So glad the Birbug and the box were both a hit! Hugs and cuddles to the kitties!
Yes, thanks for bringing this new toy to my attention! Andy will enjoy it more now that Dougy’s had his way with it first. LOL!
Love the boys. My cat had one of those loved it!
Dougy is especially addicted. He wants to play with his Neko toys first thing in the morning, then off and on all day. Andy has a more moderate approach to play, but gets wound up in it once he gets going.
