Kitties!
The Baby here.
If you think I'm looking a little miffed, you would be correct. As usual, it's all Mommy's fault. Because she made a movie of me playing on the dining room table--it was great--I was running 'round and 'round, killing the shoelace and generally acting like a wild thing. And then...we discovered that the battery ran down partway through our play session and Mommy only got a few seconds of the action!
Cod, she's inept.
Compounding her sins, she didn't wipe my eye boogers off before she took this photo. Pathetic.
Anyway, I made her fancy it up with a title and stuff, and here it is, thirty-seven seconds of what was at least a good two minutes of vigorous Whitester action.
*sigh*
I'd trade Mommy in, except she has such mad skillz with the toys, and (and this is the kicker) she just gave me a fresh hot towel to skoochie up on.
Happy Monday!

Yes, that was indeed inept camera management on your Mommy's part. Well, it simply leaves us wanting more with a sequel or two. And then a prequel.
ReplyDeleteThe things us generous, kind hearted cats will over look just because we love our mom's so much. Sigh. You just have to make sure that she tries harder next time.
ReplyDeleteWell, at least there's the warm towel. So all is not completely lost!
ReplyDeleteYou did look more concerned with your furs than the shoelace....
ReplyDeleteDarn those batteries. Perhaps you need the energizer bunny ones. ;)
ReplyDeletexo Catherine
Well, your human will just have to schedule a reshoot!
ReplyDeleteWhat's with this "grizzled" nonsense, anyway? Whities DON'T grizzle! Next they'll be calling you OLD! MOL
ReplyDeleteHmmm..we agree about the video but the toy is cool!
ReplyDeleteAT the risk of pointing out the obvious, an inept wand-waiver is waaaay better than no wand-waiver. srsly.
ReplyDeleteG, G, G & G
Don't be too hard on your Mummy, she is only human! Have a great day kitties.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you can get your mommy a camera that shuts down when the battery is too low! That's what our mommy has.
ReplyDeleteEven though it was short, we enjoyed seeing your video! It looks like you were having fun :)
Purrs,
Carmine, Milita, and Jewel
Aw, the few seconds we saw were great! Guess you'll have to perform again when fresh batteries are found, no?
ReplyDeleteYour furs were obviously out of order, but you fixed them on the video. Grizzled is a bit strong. Maybe tousled?
ReplyDeleteThe Baby, that was some wild and crazy wand action!
ReplyDeleteEPIC!!
ReplyDeleteWell Whitey, you tried your best. Sorry we didn't see all of your antics. Hope you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteMew can't beat having a hot towel, that's some warmz that can't be sniffed at!!! MOL
ReplyDeleteBasil xox
Blink and you miss it. I blinked! Silly inept wand waver ;)
ReplyDeleteOur mombean has those days too, ha.
ReplyDeletewe are glad to see you Whitey, mom says it brought back memories of our "whitey" - yes the eye boogers and all - gone to RB a year ago in March. We still miss him.
i see an academy award in your future...
ReplyDeleteYour Mom needs to go to night school to learn that batteries go deaded if they aren't charged. All that effort you put in for about three seconds of action on the table!! BTW we think you should sack the makeup girl who left you with eye boogers.
ReplyDeleteLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
That happens to me all the time when I take a great picture of one of the kitties: they have boogers or eye gookies or dingleberries or something else that is completely unattractive. I feel for you Baby.
ReplyDeleteP.S. You look a lot like my Pookie. :)
We feel your pain, we really do.
ReplyDeleteNow that photo is just screaming for an LOL cat caption! :-)
ReplyDeletewild, eh? hmmm... that fruit was looking pretty wild for sure! How about we try that again with a fresh battery!
ReplyDeleteWell, any film of you is better than none for us! And you have a cute face!
ReplyDeleteAhem.. maybe someone else mentioned this already, but is is not only possible but actually EASY to remove eye boogers after the photo has been taken!
ReplyDeleteThe video... short but SWEET!
Purrs,
The Chans
Aw adorable and even though it was brief, I got to see your gorgeousness!
ReplyDeleteOh you are soo funny saying that 'bout yo' Mum! Mummy said she liked the video although it was short... peeps!! Meow!
ReplyDeleteKitty
Oh no! Why battery has to run out when we need it! But it is very fun video, I enjoyed a lot :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd fresh hot towel sounds good :-)
We understand you're disappointed you didn't receive good makeup for your photoshoot. We suspect your mommy will make a movie sequel. Sometimes we just can't have everything all at once!
ReplyDeleteyour the mom sounds nice! and that was some good play. but does you want to know what our the mom noticed?
ReplyDeleteshe (this is SOOO 'barassing) cooed and awed over your the mom's collection of Fiesta Ware. ::SIGH::
MOL! Well, I sure enjoyed the video although it was a little short. :)
ReplyDeleteHow many times the Lady has lamented about not cleaning up eye boogers before taking a picture we cannot count. Your mom sounds pretty cool tho. She plays with you and gives you a hot towel. That's love!
Purrs,
Annie
Beautiful The Baby!!! 37 seconds of seeing you in action is better than 0 seconds! Yay!! LOL!!! But that's still no excuse for mum to not clean the boogers off your gorgeous eyes! :-) Take care
ReplyDeletex
You mean you didn't get distracted by those nanners on the table?
ReplyDeleteWell, it was short but sweet! I'm sure mom will take more videos of you soon.

We all know you we a star and we at least got a peek!
ReplyDeleteWe were getting ready for all the action when the credits rolled! We think she needs another play session!
ReplyDeleteOMCs Baby mom's are often inept but dang it we could not manage w/o them.
ReplyDeleteAt least yours has toy skillz!
hugs Madi your BFFF
Nice eye boogers...I often tell mom to leave mine alone I'm saving them for dessert
The Baby, she missed all of the action BUT we got to see you swat a time or tewo and ANYTHING with YOU in it is worth our time. xxoo pee ess: I have 1 eye booger and mommy can't get it out. She's afraid of hurting my widdle eye.
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain The Baby. My mum is hopeless too. Maybe you can agree to a replay in return for a full pack of your favourite treats.
ReplyDeleteBaby we understand completely!
ReplyDeleteAw geez!!!! That was probably heading for an Acatemy Award too !
ReplyDeleteAt least you had fun ;) heehee
Purrs Tillie and Georgia,
Treasure,Tiger,JJ and Julie
Seriouslies, we're totally there with you on the trade-in part. *sigh* Maybe we can reboot and do a software upgrade or something???
ReplyDeletePee Ess: THANK you for visiting us while our mom was away doing crazypants silly work things!!
Who, that really was pathetic. Mom needs some additional training for sure. We sure do like the look of your string toy, however. And the eye booger thing is just wrong. We always demand those be cleaned before photos are taken even though we hate having it done. Hope you get a better post in the near future. Purrs and hugs from the kitties at The Cat on My Head, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Josette
ReplyDeleteYou's got to go easy on the mom, she is human and getting old....er. Next time she'll 'member the batteries and forget to take the cap off. AT least she would if it was our mom, MOL!
ReplyDeleteEye boogers or not, you is still a pretty kitty, Baby!
Sasha, Sami, & Saku
Hmm. Our Mama leaves eye gunk AND nose boogers on our photo shoots. What's up with that?! Too much dipping into the wine before they click those boxes is what we are thinking...and that half a milla second of a video your Mama shot... pretty much cements that theory for us...just sayin...
ReplyDeletethe critters in the cottage xo
I love the video,
ReplyDeleteso cute!!
Having fun with mommy.
Good help is hard to find, The Baby. We totally understand. But the video was pretty good...you were going crazypants!
ReplyDeleteYou are very athletic! That was sooo impressive and we think your close up is wonderful even with the eye boogers!
ReplyDeleteMaybe next time you purr for her you could stop after 37 seconds?
ReplyDeletePurrs
Well, we usually think of "wild" as a bit more active than that, but we assume the wild part was the lost part after the battery died, MOL!
ReplyDeletewell, I wouldn't say pathetic, but i do have to question whether or not your human has "mad skillz" wif teh string. I mean, she seemed confused by your 'licking session,' when EVAbuddy knows it is a time-honored tactical maneuver to lull teh string into a false sense of security so you can strike. Oh well. Maybe she'll figure it out, someday...
ReplyDeletein teh meantime, you go, you Wild Fing.
Oh, but didn't you look cute in those 37 seconds. We didn't see a whole lot of action though, maybe you didn't have time to get wound up or did you know the camera was not cooperating. Cats are really smart and we know that. Hugs and nose kisses
