And the Drum-stiks Have It!

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

It’s always a great day when you receive a totally unexpected email. I enter lots of give away thingies; I used to win every now and then. But over the last year not so much. So just imagine my shock surprise upon opening my email to find a message from Phoebe and Miss Ellen, 15 And Meowing, to tell me that I WON a give away. WOO HOO!! Let me say that just one more time…WOO HOO!!!

A great big shout out for 15 And Meowing!!!

Said ‘Give Away’ was for nothing less than…wait for it…wait a bit more for it…

Needless to say, TKS is NOT telling Ashton over at Sometimes Cats Herd You. She would likely want these Chik-hen Legs for her upcoming Grande Opening of Ashton’s Chik-hen Emporium.

Of course, I was given the first opportunity to inspect and appreciate the beautiful Nip N Nap mat and to sniff the wonders for those Chik-hen Nip Legs. (better not let my AdventurCat pal Nissy, the Nip Head know I have these).

hmm..smells yummy

hmm..smells yummy

And then I notices those Chik-hen legs were being served up on a new Nip N Nap mat. Pawsome!

Whoa; there's more!

Whoa; there’s more!

You can tell that new Nip N Nap mat caught my attention for sure. This Give Away was clearly sent to me from Ceiling Cat!!

I think you can see in the background there that I was having a pretty good rest in a lingering sun puddle; so once I inspected the package contents and pawed my approval…I got right back to what my priority was at the time…

ahhhhh....

ahhhhh….

Next Mom L presented The Kid Sage with the contents of our win. Her reaction was a bit more…shall I say…extreme…than mine.

You can all judge for yourselves.

FOR ME!!! MINE MINE MINE

FOR ME!!! MINE MINE MINE

And once she established what she considered ‘ownership’…well…she just did what she does…

Luv it!!

Luv it!!

And she continued on and on…

What's under here? Can I wear this???

What’s under here? Can I wear this???

Thankfully, she was finally overwhelmed.

ahhh...bliss, sweet bliss...

ahhh…bliss, sweet bliss…

If you want a bit more…here is a VERY short video of TKS in action…

Ready? Set! ACTION!

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I want to share the results of some of the coaching I have been giving The Kid Sage. This is all about teaching her some of the Hunter Action Moves I learned from reading about and watching my personal coach, Mama Cat OTRB (The Blog of Otis) If you missed her training sessions before she left for The Bridge last year, you can click on the link above and review her many quality training posts.

Moving on, so I am actually demonstrating one of my very own special Hunter Action Moves in this next photo. The Kid Sage has yet to master this move as she cannot keep her butt still long enough. I call it “Straight Leg Butt Down Scout” position.

Mama Cat had a marvelous signature hunting move she called her Flying Squirrel move. I decided to modify that to better suit my personality and I created the floor version of her Flying Squirrel.

The other move I think is most important for The Kid Sage to learn is the Half Twist Snatch and Grab move. Again, I choose to perform the ‘floor’ version.

I will let you be the judge as to whether or not my little ‘grasshopper’ sister The Kid Sage has learned any Hunter Action Moves from me.

It’s A Blurry Kind of Selfie

HEY EVERYONE! THE KID SAGE HERE!!!

Savannah refused to do the Sunday Selfie so we can join our pals at The Cat On My Head for their Sunday Selfie blog hop. Click the badge to see more cats forced enticed to take selfie photos.

Sunday Selfies Badge

Mom L tried and tried to get me to sit still and take my selfie this morning. But, I was just wound up and wanted to play. I was moving so fast every time she clicked she was getting really, really frustrated.

At least you know I have gold eyes...right?

At least you know I have gold eyes…right?

I was trying to sniff the iPhone to make sure it wasn’t going to take away one of my nine lives. They are very dangerous you know.

I was really getting impatient because Mom L just kept shoving that iPhone in my face so I always moved so the photos were blurred…heh…heh

Come on Mom L. I don't want to do this

Come on Mom L. I don’t want to do this

Finally Mom L pulled out her trump card and called “PETER!!”. I knew it was over. Mom L called Dad P for help. I was doomed to be in a selfie.

Ok, ok, don't squeeze me so tight Dad P

Ok, ok, don’t squeeze me so tight Dad P

And this is what we finally came up with. Hope you like because I sure don’t.

Satisfied Mom L!!
