Get A Compass! The Excellent Cats embrace a new rallying cry

[TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne]

........... even though none of them understand what it means.

They are amazing, and there's a sale on! Thank you!

Just saw one, a great white shark with jaws akimbo, rows of sharp teeth on display, described as 'whimsical shark' !😂

I came in at the end of the thread & thought whimsical sharks must be the latest cat toy.

It’s got a slit for topping up the catnip filing. That’s a great idea.

@EmpressaurusKitty I get these and take the motor out and fill them - they have a zip

Here is Micia with hers

Aha. We’ve got one of those somewhere. What a fantastic idea.

Lolol no it's for my friend's new grandson.

It's the left front of a cardigan and the doting mother chose the colours.

I think it's hideous, personally. So I've also knitted (and nearly finished) a more subdued cardigan.

Here's the finished "dog coat" and yes, it's meant to look like that (asymmetrical)

Here's the back of the other one

Asymmetry does seem to be a trend right now Broon !
Edited to add: the pink one is much more tasteful.

I would have hesitated to put my PFB in that coat.
🤣

Sorry, what does PFB stand for? I am guessing Precious Fur Baby?

@TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne so sad you could not have shoved gizmo up that sleeve

Precious First Born.

Aha! Thank you!

@Pudmyboy I did a search to send you the link and ended up buying 9 new puzzles!
I blame you entirely 😂

Well, given the excellent reduction in price due to their sale, I feel happy to accept the blame! 😂
Edited to add: did you get the whimsical shark?😀

@Pudmyboy no shark but lots of cats, turtles and birds
I spent £40 ish for 9 puzzles including postage so am very happy 😊

For anyone interested the jigsaws are great gifts!
Tonight Finn is back helping with Lego

Sorry I missed Gizmo's birthday!
My phone is not allowing me to get on Mumsnet so I am on the computer instead, and I don't check on here as often.
I love the knitting.....my mum used to knit fantastic stuff for DD and DS. She was an expert at crochet too. That gene passed me by though!

We have a current front runner on toys- an old fashioned Powerball! Excuse the blurry actio shot

Friend of mine used to swear by ping pong balls?

Have you got a ball track, @Breadcat24? Most of mine have enjoyed them & they’re good for both interactive & independent play. I’m just out of the photo, hitting the ball back to Kitty & trying to get it past her paw while she tries to stop it (at least I think that’s what the game is). She also plays with it by herself sometimes.

We’ve got the Catit one & I rearrange the pieces every so often.

@EmpressaurusKitty Looking them up now! To be honest I think she enjoys making the sad little squeak when she gets it stck somewhere and I have to get up and find it. Best one last night was getting it stuck in one of my husband's slippers!

Hmmmm, Agatha hasn't played with her Mr Wiggly Fish for ages. I might have to put some fresh catnip in it, and she if she's more interested.....
