Hey, as the French know, presentation is important! I just didn’t present the temptation properly.
In the meantime, Andy was holding onto his chair in the bathroom.
“Don’t bug me, Doug. Go away. Now! RAWR!” (Well, it is more like “meow”. Andy speaks softly but with authority. He gave me “The Look” – see last photo.)
They can certainly keep us guessing what they want! Willow is grouchy for about an hour after being combed.
LOL! Yes, both Andy and Dougy walk up to me, meow, and expect me to translate Cattinese into action. If I guess wrong, I get “kitty paws of slightly extended claws” treatment on my usually bare legs….!
maybe too much
excitement in one feather 🙂
Could be. Kitty boys need time to think, too, I suppose.
That is funny that he is ignoring you.
A few minutes later, same feather, different presentation (shaft end first, poked under a piece of cardboard he was “perched” on, and he got his kitty on!
So true presentation is important. Shok and I usually play with her feather under or between the crack in the bathroom door. If, I present it that way…she rushes over to play. If the feather is presented when I’m out in the open, Shoko looks at me and starts walking away. She looks back as much as to say, “You fool” and she’s gone. I meanwhile feel like a real winner with a feather. hehe

Shoko and my kitty boys agree: under doors or anything is better than right out in the open!
We all know that look. Good thing cats forget the last feather that didn’t work. Change the presentation and try again.
Exactly! A few minutes later, with a different presentation, Dougy went wild in play!
Peacock feathers! Our favorites!!
Andy and Dougy agree totally with you! Bring’em on!
Sometimes cats get rid of something to play with. Great philosophers studied that and they did not know why.
Cats only know 🙂
LOL! How true.
Very rude Dougy. Your owner tries to spend time with you and you don’t appreciate that!
He wanted a new feather, not that floppy, broken thing I was waving in his face!
LeL!!!!
He certainly means what he says ! That dematting comb is going to be a long business.
I fear so!
Nope, not in the mood, then. Hehe!
He never did take on the challenge! I think he was upset with me because I used the dematting comb on him a bit earlier, and he doesn’t tolerate it well. Poor baby!
Hehehe!
