Tower of Power tussle

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Well there is now a tussle going on in my castle between Sage and the boy cat Domino. It’s fascinating to me that they are tussling over who gets to own the Penthouse in MY original Tower of Power cat tree!! Yes! This was my first cat tree Mom L and Dad P bought for me in 2011.  Just last night I had Mom L chronicle this tussle.

Yeah; Domino thought that if he just acted casual he could get Sage to abandon her ownership of the Penthouse.

Then he kind’a leaned out and tried to get her attention by chirping.

Next, Domino  thought that maybe Sage was goin’ deaf—like me! HAH!!!

Next it dawned on him—perhaps Sage was just simply paying no attention whatsoever to him! She knows she owns the Penthouse!!! MOL!!

Yep! Finally he gets her tactics!

And so it goes with  the Sage and Domino tussle over who gets to nap in the top of the Tower of Power. I kind’a think Domino is gonna have to wait until Sage is too old to get up there! MOL!!

Old is made new again!

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Have you ever had one of your favorite old play things, now a bit dirty and dingy, made new again? Well, I never thought it could be done, but Mom L did it!

Boy oh boy!! I can bunny kick this!

That is a photo of me in 2012 when I first received my Nip N’Nap mat from a pal of Mom L’s. It was filled with the nip, which I didn’t know I liked at the time, and I took to that mat like crazy!!

I still like nothing better than having my peacock fevver pulled under that mat so’s I can jump on it and dead it! Just check out how serious I am in that photo above—see my whiskers are all pulled forward so’s to give me the best intel on what that fevver is gonna do.

So you know I luvluvluv my Nip mat. It also became a nice place to take a nap, so we call it my our Nip N’ Nap mat.

It has been refilled many times with new nip. But Mom L finally decided that it needed to be brought back to life with a good bath!!

You got it right!! She darn near deaded BOTH our Nip N’ Nap mats by putting them through the washing machine!

I guess is turned out OK, because for TKS, that first Nip N’ Nap mat of mine was like it was reborn and all new again.

*sniff, sniff*—hmmm—this smells different?

TKS gave the New “old” Nip N’ Nap mat a real workout!

I can roll on it like the old mat and get the nip smell on my furs

TKS wasn’t sure if this mat ‘reborn’ mat was gonna be fun like it was before its bath.

Ok, ok— I can bunny kick it and get my nip to smell even more

So far, so good.

Wait a minute?! Is this a set up? To get me to make it fall apart?

Suspicious as always!

umm—maybe I outta let Savvy or KK do this first

And TKS’ gung ho nature took over and she took that Nip N’ Nap reborn mat for a ride across the living room floor!!

Who cares! I’m takin’ this baby for spin across the floor!!!

Typical TKS!!

Let me know if you like your play things made new again—we sure have enjoyed our “old” ‘New” Nip N’ Nap mats!

When You Love Your Fur Groomin’ Tool Too Much

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Sometimes I gotta wonder about The Kid Sage. She just gets her tail all tangled in a knot when she gets to worrying about stuff. You know what I mean? Stuff that no cat outta be gettin’ all in a dither about. Not that I even know what a dither is, but it fit just fine in this sentence so I pawed it into my blog post.

Where was I headed with this post? Oh, right. The Kid Sage and her stuff worryin’. Now I like myself a good brush just like any cat. And I do have a favorite fur grooming tool or two. But TKS, well she just can’t get past her lovey dovey affair with her slicker brush. I have one just like it but you won’t be seein’ me get all to fretting about my relationship with mine.

But TKS, well she just gets to thinkin’ too much and, well, keep reading and see for yourself. Let me know in comments what you think about her obsession with her fur groomin’ tool.

I dream of you holding me in your soft little bristles

Now come on guys—what cat dreams of their brush holdin’ them in its bristles??

You give my chin furs the best scritches

Yeah, yeah…anyone can get a good chin scritch from a human, or maybe even from just rubbin’ your chin along a wall—na’mean?

Sigh… I can’t imagine my life without you

If TKS keeps this up, I am gonna have to make her brushie take a “vacay”—her reaction outta be worth the lecture I’ll get from Mom L and Dad P for doing something like that.

You wouldn’t ever leave me, right sweet brushie?

She worries if that thing will ever leave her—she must be outta her noggin!! Mom L and Dad P aren’t ever gonna let that slicker brush disappear, especially while TKS is blowin’ her coat like a husky during the Summer!!

Oh!! What if you were stolen!! What if you had no choice and were forced to leave me?!!

As if that inanimate object has a choice about whether or not to hang around her…seriously! But then…maybe a little “accidental” disappearing act might be kind’a fun to stage. Let me think about that…heh…heh.

That’s it! We need a plan to make sure no one can take you away from me!

Sure TKS, make a plan. See how far that gets you when Dad P starts puttin’ stuff away when they get ready to clean downstairs!

Hmmmm….I’m worried about you brushie. You won’t run away will you?

Is TKS kidding?? That brushie doesn’t even have the beginnings of paws to use to run. What is TKS thinkin’?? Oh right, she doesn’t really think much beyond what she wants in a single moment. Silly kid!

Oh no!! I can’t believe that Savvy would ever hide you from me…would she?

And there you have it. TKS has her tail twisted in a knot worryin’ about her stuff like her brushie. Seriously, would I, Savannah the Cat, ever take TKS’ brushie away just to see what she would do???

Ahem…koff, koff…ummmm…don’t bother answerin’ that, ok? Just let me know in comments if you have any obsession over your fur groomin’ tools.

PAW PATS, SAVANNAH
