Flying Friends Friday

Kitties!

Lizard Season is drawing to a close.
Alas, poor Georgeic, I knew him well.
We had great sport with each and every lizard. 
He's under the chair...
Even though SOME parties were disinterested. 
I am not amused.
 However, Ceiling Cat never closes a door that he opens a window; the DAMSELFLIES have arrived!
TaaDaa!
They tease us endlessly...
I'm grinning at you Cats evilly.
 ...flitting from flower to flower...
la de da da daaaa...

...they are utterly captivating to watch!

Lantana is lovely!

And watch them we do.

Soon, Mr. Damselfly, soon.
And wait.


Happy Friday!

XX  The Kats  XX

    You have the bestest toys! We just get lousy flies and bees. And there's no lizards here either. What a stupid place to live. We're moving in with you!

  4. Catio TalesSeptember 22, 2011 at 8:17 PM

    Yes, great entertainment! We have had lean times here. No birds on the catio (thanks to the new anti-kitten escape mesh), and few damselflies. And no mousies at all - we hope that when the snow comes we will get to catch a few who hide. The sight of dead mousie over white snow is unbelievably satisfying.
    So we are really jealous of your visits from George.

    You guys have such exotic things to chase! All Scarlett and Melly get are boring little insects. And the occasional mouse under the floorboards. I guess that's kind of interesting, though.

    Oh my gosh your pictures are amazing! Is that Felix who's not amused? Too funny. I'm not sure if that's Sylvester or Salem's cute little feet. The cats here would be so jealous if they saw these lizards and damselflies!

    That damselfly DOES look like it's grinning away. Too cute!
    Since Mum and Dad mosquito-proof the whole house, George rarely visits but when he does, we give him a very *slurp* warm welcome.

    Love, Cosmo and Ling

    Wow - yoo have so many creatures to chase in your part of the world. Yesterday we found a spider and we get the occasional fly but that's about it! Scott gets verry concerned though when a wasp comes inside - we seem to lobe chasing them the most!

    Hihihihihi! What's a lizzard, please? I've never seen one. And me and mummycat and the human all say we're sorry that we haven't been back in a while. Blue funk bites! Well, that's what the human says, but I don't think so. It's girlcats that bite... Their brothers! Hahahaha.

    Ooooo!! What pretty pictures!! We have lizards, but not damselflies (are they like dragonflies? we do have those, but they are different)...I bet no one stands a chance in your house..like jumping /flying /crawling into a tiger den! Oooo, I'm scaring myself just thinking about it!! Mom wants to say she is so jealous that you have lantana..yours is soooo gorgeous (so she says - what do I know!)..it just won't grow here. I can't believe though that your Mom lets you have Georgies (lizards)...our Mom rescues them from us then scolds us...she is JUST NO FUN!! Lots of purrs to you all and thanks for your purrs...they are the best medication!! headbutts, Lautrec (and Tiny)..who cares about those dawgs!

    Well, who wants a dead leezard dangling in front of his nose? Only live ones are worth the attention.
    Ohhhhh damselflies are interesting. They look like dragonflies, which we have had a bumper crop of this summer. Scout loves to nom on those! A protein snack on the wing, all fresh & crunchy!

    Mom took George away.
    And he looked so tasty too.
    But since lizard season is drawing to a close we are glad you still have dragonflies.
