LiveStrong Day and new toys!



We want to start our blog by acknowledging LiveStrong Day.  Kit and I highly support this cause.  We lost our grandpa to brain cancer on June 2nd and we and mama miss him very much.  He was always so nice to us.  We hate cancer and wish it could be eradicated from the world.  We admire Lance Armstrong and all he has done with LiveStrong.

On a happier note, we got new toys!  The nice people at Kong sent us toys to test!  We love our green kickaroo so we were really happy to be approached by Kong.  We received no compensation for this -- just the wonderful toys!

First out of the box was an awesome snake teaser.  We have been playing with this like crazy.


Mama wants to name it Nagini.  I was the first one to get to play wif it -- Kit was sleeping.


It has great big eyes and feathers where the tongue would be.  Kit heard me playing and came to see what was going on.  He loves the snake and has been playing wif it ever since.  Sometimes he plays wif mama and sometimes he plays alone -- he tosses it up in the air and wrestles it to the ground.

Next came another kickaroo!  This one is for kittens, but mama said it was okay to play wif.  It's pink!


It has catnip in it and makes a crinkly sound.

Next we gotted stuffed mice!  These are also for kittens but we like them too.


They haf catnip too!  We tossed them around for a while.  Later I tooked a nap wif one.

And one more thing comed out of the box!  A laser toy.  I don't know if you can see it in this picture.


By this time I was kind of tired of playing and mama just waved it back and forth by my paws, and I kept trying to put my paw on it.

We are hafing a lot of fun wif our new toys!  Thanks Kong!

Putting our paws together will and purring together would lead to a cure. Purring for your Mom to have lost Grandpa.

Those Kong toys for kittens can be as a lot of fun as Mom saw one and brought it for me.
