Kitties!
We learn so much from all of you; in fact, yesterday we learned a fabulous new word from Nitro over at the Meowers from Missouri: Wallerin'.
Here is their definition:
Wallerin' is handlin' a kitteh by floppin' him around on yer lap or a chair or bed, rollin' him ofur an' curlin' him into a ball, makin' him "exercise" by holdin' his legs in his legpits an' wavin' 'em, makin' him bite his tail, holdin' him downside up, etc etc etc. that is to say, generally tormentin' him in a nice way.

We ardently hope this trend does NOT spread...it's SO undignified! Although, if any of YOUR peeps would just so happen to waller you, we'd love to laugh like hyenas at view the photographic evidence. Purely for scientific purposes.

Happy Wednesday!

Um... I do not allow wallerin in our house...
ReplyDeletePricilla maaaas that she is glad she is too big to pick up
ReplyDeleteYou are so accomdating to allow your mom to do all those things to you.
ReplyDeleteIn our house, only the cat whisperer gets away with that sort of treatment, all others get hurts!
(The cat whisperer is my son C, who has a special way with animals - I'll have to try to get some pics to share!)
Sasha, Sami, & Saku (Mom Eileen)
oh my cats get some of these poses..but no upside down stuff..you are so funny;)
ReplyDeleteI love it! I didn't know that had a name--I do it to Melly ALL THE TIME. Must get photographic evidence...
ReplyDeleteErr, our human does this to us too...
ReplyDeleteIf MY Human did anything remotely like that to ME--well, let's just say the pictures would mostly be RED.
ReplyDeleteNot at this house--especially if you want to remain unscathed!
ReplyDeleteOh yes! Wallerin is a sport at our house. If you're not sportin a mouthful of cat fur, you're not doin it right! MOL!
ReplyDeleteOh my, you look so impressed with "bottoms up" giggle :)xx
ReplyDeleteI am ALWAYS The Unwilling Captive.
ReplyDeleteha ha! we love the "bottoms up" pose :)
ReplyDeleteMommy won't try it though. She is afraid of losing a few limbs!
Hahaha! Great bottoms up shot!!
ReplyDeleteAny wallerin in this house would precede a trip down A&E
Goodness Gracious! That bottoms up picture had Mom in stitches! There's a whole lot of wallering that goes on in this house but we're making sure NONE of the pictures get on the blog.
ReplyDeletePS/ The bottoms up picture happens A LOT over here.
There is so much that is wrong about this in so many ways. Where to begin ? let us just say that it is obvious that two humans are needed for those shots and Äiti is really bad with the self-timer. We think we are safe from this World War Wallerin' stuff. We darn well better be. I'm not going bottoms up for anyone!
ReplyDeleteOh noes! Now my Mommeh wants to waller on me!
ReplyDeleteIt was close but "Bottoms UP: is our favourite!
ReplyDeletePurrs,
The Chans
That it sooooo funny, I woofed and woofed. All those kitties, that one upside down!BOL Great photies.
ReplyDeleteBig huggies or Wallerines :)
Mollie xx
Awwww you kitties of katnip lounge are amazing!! You are so tolerant of your hoomans' crazypantsness! LOL!! Take care
ReplyDeletex
Are gauntlets allowed for the human?
ReplyDeleteLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Whoa! The mom will snorgle us, sometimes with teeth, and she does the dirty eye manoeuvre, but if she ever tries the bottoms up, we might have to damage her. Permanently.
ReplyDeletebetcha all wish your mom had never learned that word.
ReplyDeleteIn our house this is only done without witnesses. No evidence. Therefore doesn't exist. That is all.
ReplyDeleteWe've been wallered and never even knew it! Dad often turns us upside down and gives us tummy rubs at the same time. Mum used to do it to me, Flynn first and calls it chumbering because one of the silly names she calls me is Chumba Wumba. Now she wants to practice different wallering moves on us.
ReplyDeletehahahahaha...... though we see that you may have the need to torment the mommy at some point in the future (maybe at 2am??)
ReplyDeleteWhat great photos..after all those snuggles and tummy kisses you 13 might need to share your hair ball med with your mom
ReplyDeleteHugs Madi
Oh my.... I love ALLLLLLL photos, but the "bottons up" is sensational!
ReplyDeleteI´m laughing and smiling!!!!
Those are some great photos! We like the bottoms up one the best!
ReplyDeleteWell, all I can say is thank Cod my mom is the ONLY photographer in our house.
ReplyDeleteare you serious with that "Bottoms Up" photo!! Oh my goodness that is priceless!! and awesome!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the kond and thoughtful words on the passing of my beloved Alex. I appreciate you. Sister Gracie from Brian's Home
ReplyDeleteJust loved seeing all theses fab moves.. Mum was laughing at the expresions. Hugs GJ xx
ReplyDeleteWe get some of that "whallerin" treatment. Fortunately TBT is too lazy ta re-learn how ta take a delayed photo of him doin that ta us!
ReplyDeleteWe're exhausted scrolling through that!
ReplyDeleteOh, so it's called "wallerin'?" Our mom and dad do that stuff to us sometimes, and we never knew it had a name!
ReplyDeleteUm, we don't think we want any wallerin here, unless we get some mega good treats!

O noes! Wallerin'! As if you Mom needed an excuse to do more weird stuff you to you all!!!
ReplyDeleteOne thing fur sure -- it's never boring at the Katnip Lounge.
Wallerin...oh my cod.
ReplyDeleteMom fell off her chair.
NO way no how are we allowing any of that.

Ohhhh all the wallerin' photos are so funny and cuuuuute!! Everyone looks very annoyed...eh, happy! I want to play the accordion cat :-) Chicken wing extension cracked me up! LOL!!
ReplyDeleteWe think your mom has lost her mind. We hope our mom doesn't get any ideas. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm with the Island Cats...and...you are one INFINITELY PATIENT group!!!
ReplyDeleteBottoms up, indeed!! Looks like an Olympic sport to me! :)
ReplyDeleteNoir
We would be putting the bitey on mum if she tried that stuff.
ReplyDeleteMy human's husband is doing a combination of the above to me but I will bite my human's hand if she dares take pics!
ReplyDeleteme is happy to sees that MY Mommy is not the only nut bar out there!
ReplyDeleteKisses
Nellie
MOL oh no! Our survunts are laughing and we fear the worst! oh curse you Katnip Lounge kitties, we're about to be wallerined all day long!!!!
ReplyDeleteThese could also be kitty Olympic events :-)
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOSH!!! MOL! I'm dying! Seriously dying! Has anyone, other than the cats, ever questioned your sanity? Not that I'm asking for any special reason... not at all! MOL!
ReplyDeleteIf I tried ANY of that on Star, I'd be missing a few limbs and/or my face.. Leo would flip out! You do NOT touch his tummy, more's the pity. I'm still trying to train him to like it though..
aaiiieeeeyiyiyiyi!!!...ARE YOU KIDDING!!! SHUT UP!!!..that is SO NOT HAPPENING at my house!!!...No,no, Mom...I said NO...don't touch me!!!...pant, pant, pant...puff, puff...running up stairs, down stairs...running, running...Oh Shrimp!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDelete...errrr...ummm...here Dad, (passes the band aids and hydrogen pyroxide)...I,ummm, like didn't really mean to damage Mom...but, errrr...ummm..she tried to WALLER me...ICK!!!
Oh yes..wallerin' is a good Southern term. Mommy has wallered us many a time. cat rollin' is a fave. (not purrsonally though).
ReplyDelete'Bottoms Up'
ReplyDeleteBest. Photo. EVAR!

That Woman
Gosh ~ that was a lot of fancy maneuvers there. I am thinking you kitties needed a big rest after all that! :)
ReplyDeletexo Catherine
Ok, well, seeeeeee, we might admit to the wallerin' and that a lot of those evidences you got pictured here does look really familiar...but, we don't know if we'll commit to photographical evidences.
ReplyDelete:-) hee-hee!
You guys are great - has a happy!
What great pictures!!! We love the 'bottoms up' too cute! We would go for some of these wallerin' methods around here but not all of them. Loved this post. Hugs and nose kisses
ReplyDeleteoh, boy! what a fur-storm we created wif a post that was only red by 7 cats to begin wif! we're hopin' not too many noticed you sed you gotted it frum us, so we don't start gettin' hate-mail. those were some stellar pictures; yer picture-taker must not laff as hard as ours! we laffed hardest at "bottoms us" acause maui looks so much like xing, an' we just got so tickled imaginin' whut would go on if ennyone tried it wif HER!
