Yuu-Chan: When I was sick for such a long time, I not only lost weight but I also lost condition. I am quite the natural athlete and #1 is always saying that I move like a dancer, but I was frankly a bit wobbly on my back legs for a while there. So, in addition to feeding me up, #1 has also been giving me a little exercise. You know that I love going around the garden on my harness and lead, but my favourite thing of all is playing with wand toys. We have all kinds, mostly with feathers, but this is the one I like best:
As you can see, it is basically two sparkly eyeballs on loose springs, so they boing along madly as I play. Just fabulous! Here are some action shots of me:
Uncle U knows how much I like those wands, so he brings them back from me when he goes to cat shows in Holland. That is where they sell them. Thanks, Uncle U!
Oh, you were so sick, weren't you? I know you'll be back in condition soon, though. Don't rush it. You're young and it'll all come back as you play and use those muscles.

Hello there everybody...
ReplyDeleteI just had to pop around and see how you are all doing. Sorry I've not left a comment lately.
You seem to have been on plenty of travels!?
Those pictures of Tommy in the flowers (yesterday) were so beautiful...I love it when dogs celebrate nature!
Also...sorry to hear about the 'sickies'...get better soon!
I love the wand though!
Sending lotsaluv

We love the eyeball wand Yuu-Chan it would make us giggle when they were wobbling about. We are pleased you are playing with #1 cos you'll get all your muscles back in tiptop condition. Going out into the garden will be great fun with leaves to pounce on when the wind blows.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a really fun wand. I am glad it is helping you get strong again, Yuu.
ReplyDeleteSweet boy, we're so glad that you are feeling well enough to have fun and play again. Your Uncle U sounds like a great friend! :)
ReplyDeleteYuu-Chan, we're glad you are getting back into shape. You look better and better each time we see you.
ReplyDeleteYou know, Mica is practically a dinosaur cat and he still likes to play for a few seconds at a time with a wand toy. He's fond of anything with feathers...may explain why he likes looking at the window at pigeons!
ReplyDeleteYour pal,
Petey
Ooooh! I would love to have a wand toy like that! Mom got me a new feather attachment that is only so-so... Maybe I can convince her to go to a cat show and get me a boingy eyeball wand toy!

You'll surely be in good condition again soon, Yuu-Yuu. That wand toy is one of the coolest we ever saw. We feel like sending mom off to Holland right now. Can you believe she brought nothing for us from Belgium?! Sheesh...
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful that your people spend so much time making sure you get well conditioned! Good for them.
ReplyDeleteWand toys are the best! I have never seen an eyeball wand toy before. Cool!
ReplyDeleteWe bet that in no time at all you will be back to your very athletic and svelte self, Yuu-Chan. That wand toy with the goo-goo=googly eyes looks like a lot of fun.
