They're Back!

Kitties!


 May Ling here, and I'm hunting MOTHS!
Yes, mothing season has begun on the Catio.  Daddy put a Cat tree under the light for maximum mothage, and I got busy.

First I stretched to warm up.

Then I sat up like a prairie dog and waited for a moth.

SCORE!  I spotted a moth!

I stunned him and he fell.  Do you see how my eyes crossed following him down?

He roared back to life and tried to escape...

...but I was too fast!

::nibble nibble, munch munch::

Kitties, moths are YUMMY.  
(they taste like insectile chicken!)
Y'all feel free to come over and hunt moths with us any evening...there's elebenty bazillion of 'em!


Happy Tuesday!

XX  May Ling  XX

pee ess:  The Grands are coming today!

  2. Your belly made mom squeee! I tried to tell her to be quiet so she won't scare off your moths.

  3. There are few things tastier than a nice, juicy, fluffy moth! They have not started to run at my house, but I am looking forward to it!

  4. Mmmmmm, good! We don't get many moths here in the big foggy city (I hear tell they enjoy warmer climes) but still, about once a year a big juicy one strays into my path, and lets just say no moth has eaten *me* yet, MOL!

  5. I LOVE moths! Soft on the outside, crunchy on the inside! Yum.

    I wonder if we have moths here...

  6. Mai Ling - you are really good at that job. I loves catching moths too. We had one in the house last night, but he stayed up by the ceiling so I couldn't get him.

  7. Wow. We have not done that (but we do like crunchy damselflies in summer). That set up your Daddy created is most excellent. Äiti was worried you might burn your paw close to that light but I told her you are a clever cat and she was being silly.
    Your focus and concentration are admirable - especially the crossy eyes, hehehe. And your belly is just gorgeous. We were wondering though - were you quiet ? Is this the quietest you ever are ?

  27. That is hysterical, insectile chicken. It does sound yummy. May Ling, good job catching that moth. We love to catch them too. It is a lot of fun. Hope you have a great time with the Grands and that they bring you tons of treats. Have fun.

  28. My cats agree with you and you should also try spiders apparently they also have a very good taste !

    ReplyDelete
  29. A little protein on the wing, eh May Ling! NOM!
    Bet you get some whoppers there too! We love moths too. They're always getting in the house in the summer.

    Mom thinks having her hisser out would help her headaches too. Especially since the doc says they are most likely hor-moan related.

    ReplyDelete
  30. We think chasin' moths on the catio would be great fun! We had one in the house once and mom said we "trashed the joint" trying to catch it.

    Have fun with the grands!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Oh the joys of mothing, y'all are going to have some big time fun!

  33. May Ling you are a great huntress and I think I could learn a thing or two from you. Last night we had a sucidal moth banging into our back door which is mostly glass. I kept running up to get it but alas I realized it was out and I was in and it was not to be.

  34. hi May Ling! Wow, we have missed seeing all of you! Mom is afraid of moths (she thinks she got it from her mom) and so we don't see them too often - so we would love to come and hang out and chase some with you, but you would have to show us the best technique. We do get to chase some bugs (spiders and flies mostly) but moths are pretty elusive at our place. We are very impressed with how quickly you took care of that one!

    ReplyDelete
  35. May Ling, you are so darn adorable hunting those moths. We don't get many here, mostly flies instead. Would you like to trade?

    ReplyDelete
  36. We love moth season too! but May Ling you definitely have catcing and crunching moths down to a fine art. What finesse!

  40. WHOA! It's just like an episode of Catzilla vs. Mothra!

  42. Oh May Ling
    YOU are a master moth"er"!!!
    We are in awe at your skill.
    We all have much to learn. We've never hunted moths before.
