I Tawt I Taw a Puddy Tat!!!….

Hiya! Savannah Here!

Well it has been a busy, busy morning with Mom…I just let her give me lots of soft tummy strokes!!

No Kidding!!!…I really, really did!…I fell asleep on the job being Staircase Troll…and when I woke up…I was scared and meowed for Mom…

She was in our office slaving for me doing some stuff for me like usual…so I ran upstairs to her voice calling to me…

Then I threw myself down on the carpet outside our office and she came out, laid down in the landing with me and that’s when I let her pet my tummy!!! I even let her kiss my back and shoulders…NOT MY TUMMY…but hey, progress, right??

Anywho, I want to share a little video with you cause for the very first time…I TAWT I TAW A PUDDY TAT…SNEAKIN’ UP ON ME….

There I am…just playing with my wonderful Pheasant Feather Toy…and Oh My Cat!!!  There was another cat!!

Of course you all know…it was a mirror…but my first time noticing it and I play there with my scratch ball thingy all the time! Mom is still chuckling over this one…

…and so am I ‘cuz this video is a bit of a “VIDEO BOMB” because she couldn’t play with me and keep focus…MOL…who gets the last heh, heh now???

Saturday Hunting…

Hiya!  Savannah Here!

I’ve been having some really great aerobic workouts with a new toy. I learned about this toy from one of my bestest girl furriends Cathy Keisha, Stunning Keisha, ‘cuz talked about these totally cool Pheasant Feather Toys on a post a while back…and guess what??!!…YES!! Thanks to you, CK, Mom bought me some….

Another great thing I do with Mom is use the Pheasant Feather Toy for some really good core strength building, not just aerobic…we play on our carpeted stairs…and I pull myself using my upper body and abs along the stair to chase the feather(ladycats need a nice 6 pak too!)….and I work my gluts and quads ‘cuz I also push myself along the stair.

Carpeting is key for this workout ‘cuz ya need to be able to sink those claws into the carpet to get leverage…whew…

…getting a good taste of the feather always is essential for me to build my focus…

..now some warm up work using just upper body…good for paw to eye coordination…

…now the stair work…here is where I get really serious about dedding the feather…ROAR!!!…

…smack, whack…munch, munch…

…yuummmm…tasty…hey, Mom?…I think I may need a new one next workout, OK??!!…

And that my furriends is how this cat did her Saturday Hunting…a real work out for ladycats and mancats…if you are up to it….meowwwwwww….that’s a challenge to all you napping cats…

…speaking of that….yawnnnn…hmmmm….ahem, koff, koff….maybe I will just see if there are some morning sun puddles with my name on them…zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

peeEss…I know I am now 3 days behind…purrlease forgive me…I will be around today and tomorrow trying to catch up…see you soon

They Thought I Won’t Jump!!

Hiya! Savannah Here!!

You know humans, right??  They don’t seem to get it that when they aren’t home, we do stuff differently than when they are…right???  Isn’t that true for all of you?  Cats and Dogs??

I bet’cha it is true!…I know all of guys are NOT the purrfect little cats and dogs you try to pretend to be…I read your blogs…I know!

Mom and Dad always lament (vocab builder project VBP) that I don’t seem to care much for heights…I don’t get on counters (well, there was that one time Mom caught me)…I don’t get on the table ( well, once)…anyway…I don’t usually “JUMP” up on stuff…so they think…heh heh…

Well, Auntie Shannon, remember she runs the HOOVER here AND she stays with me when Mom and Dad have their get-aways…anywho…Auntie Shannon let it slip that she and I have this really cool arrangement for when she stays here.

Auntie Shannon leaves the bedroom window open, with the shutter opened too…and I jump…yes…I said I “JUMP” from the floor to the window sill for a little fresh air and a look-see from a different perspective (VBP) than I get from looking out the slider doors when they are open.

Mom said “NO WAY!!…not my baby girl Nana!!…she would never jump up like that”…and Auntie Shannon said “WAY!!…yes she does!!…open that window and leave the shutter open and just you wait and see…”

Yup..you got it right!  That is exactly what Mom has done…and of course she has been “waiting to see” with her FLASH and CLICK in her hand…literally night and day!

So, she got me…in the act…

…yup…it’s open alrighty…

…lemme just use my Ground Hog sit move to look higher…make sure the sill is clear…

…OK…just one or two more things to check out…

…made it!!!…yup…that’s the floor down there…and me up here…

…ahhh…I just luvluvluv the perspective this gives me of Mom’s chest of drawers….hmmm…wonder how far that jump would be???…

…nope, nope..focus…this is good for now…smell that air…ahhhhhh….

…Wow…the jacuzzi is sure quiet…wonder if there are any stars out tonight…

…well…guess I better get down…Mom probably needs me over in bed with her now…

And that’s what I have been doing for months now…when Mom and Dad are gone…Auntie Shannon and I have this deal…she likes the shutter open at night…and I like to sit and look at the stars from the window sill…cool, huh?

Now Mom and Dad know what to do too…so I get my way…SCORE ANOTHER ONE FOR SAVANNAH…Clowie will be proud of the way I am training my bipeds…she is my role model for biped Training 101…

Hope all of you are still working your own biped training…we have to keep them on their toes…so make sure you never do the same thing all the time…give them something different when they least expect it…hmmmmm…wish I could operate that FLASH and CLICK to capture the looks on their faces…MOL

Paw Pats, Savannah
