Brilliant!
Was that Ched or Dennis who came and helped you out there? I think his legs are a little longer than yours still.

Awwww, happy cute cats!

Wanna know the Very Best Cat Toy Ever (at least Sputnik thinks so)? Get one of those "happy birthday" helium balloons from the grocery store, and have them tie an extra-long ribbon on it, so that the ribbon will be about 2 - 2 1/2 feet off your floor when said balloon is drifting along your ceiling. (Note: Turn off any celing fans before deploying.) Our cats have had hours of fun catching the ribbon and parading around the house being trailed by a balloon.

Alas, Sputtie decided she loves to eat the ribbon, so we can no longer provide the Best Toy without lots of adult supervision.

Eddy is going to be a muscular cat.

Merle Sneed said...

I wonder if that is Dennis or Ched too.

Kurt said...

The second cat seems too curious and energetic to be Dennis. But he seems too bulky to be Ched.

Bob Dylan said...

Looks like Ched has bulked up.

Squirrel said...

I liked your first film better, this one is a little bit too long.

Steve Reed said...

I like how Ched lurked in the background, giving Eddy a chance to capture the beast, and then moved in when he thought Eddy needed assistance.

"I came to get down, I came to get down
So get out your seats and jump around
Jump around, Jump around, Jump around
Jump up Jump up and get down!"

Eddy, I think you need to get a toy called the Cat Dancer!

You wouldn't catch ME embarrassing myself like that! Jumping up like an idiot... for a lousy string!
although Lori's Helium Balloon idea does sound intriguing as I don't mind watching the other cats make fools out of themselves.

Seems Dennis is a tad bothered by your kittenish ways...or is he a tad jelus?
Thank you for your visit to see me a while back...I am old and slow but never forgot a cutie pie like you!
I love your name too...it is special to me!!
Love from Miss Peach

Ed, you are a fine jumper!!! If ya don't get the string, you can do a cool job on the walls :)
It's good that Ched likes to play too!!! Mom says exercise is good for you. Wonder why she doesn't do any ,heh,heh,heh!!!!

Ched's easy to spot--his white mustache looks like a smile whereas Dennis's mustache looks like Charlie Chaplin's.

I was just thinking today that all of your cats are male. Was that accidental or purposeful on your part?

I've always preferred female dogs and male cats. It's just my personal preference though.

I had to snort, when Dennis came in.

Eddy, you are a rocking kitty! I could watch you for hours cutie. You are growing so handsome!

lettuce said...

ooo yes, do the helium balloon thing!

Dennis seems a bit miffed! Dennis apparently wasn't asked to appear in this film!

Being a cat is such hard work.
