I did my very very best to limit the huge number of pictures in today’s series, but there are still a lot of them. What can I say? I love my camera and I love those flailing-for-the-teaser kitties!
Everett senses the presence of Da Bird!
::leap::
Sugarbutt gets in the middle and decides to show Sally who the boss is.
And then he’s distracted by Da Bird.
Everett critiques Sugarbutt’s form.
Then Sugarbutt lands a little too close to Sally and she’s all ::THWAP!::
And then she’s all ::THWAP AGAIN I SAY::
Then Sugarbutt’s all ::I CAN THWAP TOO::
Then Sally’s all ::BRING IT!::
Then Sugarbutt retorts with ::I HISS AT YOU!::
::HISS I SAY!::
::AND ALSO I HISS AT YOU, MIZ POO!::
::PLEASE NOTE THAT I CAN HISS AND WALK, FOR I AM AN EXCELLENT MULTI-TASKER::
::HISS::HISS::HISS::HISS!::
And then out of nowhere comes Everett, who’s all ::LEAP!::
And then Everett and Sally flopped down for a break.
While on the cat tree, Lucy entertained herself.

On a different day altogether, we took Da Bird out into the back yard (where the Peppers cannot go. God help me when they figure out that cat door.)
Sugarbutt reaches… and misses.
And Corbie reaches… and gets a bit closer!
Then Sugarbutt shows Corbie how to do the Macarena.
We tried to get them to get up on the stump (which we’ve seen them sitting atop plenty, mind you), but Sugarbutt just stood there and slapped at Da Bird.
“Gimme!”
Please note that both back feet are off the ground. Watch what happens to his tail when he lands…
It ::POPS:: straight up in the air.
Tommy was more interested in rolling around on the concrete.
Sugarbutt took a break (and was apparently quite happy as he mentally relived all his fancy moves).
And Jake said “If it gets me closer to Da Bird, I’ll climb up on the stump!”
::loonyface::
Got it!
Having captured Da Bird, he ran inside with it and stood over it and growled at anyone who tried to get their paws on it.
The end.
