Thursday Thirteen-Siamese Rescue Prize Pack!

Mom has been working late this week, and we haven't been able to blog or visit our friends. Last night she got home after midnight, and Dad was already asleep. She found a package addressed to us on the kitchen table. It was from the Siamese Rescue Store and contained prizes that Skeezix sent to us for finishing second in his 800th post contest. Mom opened it and put the contents on the floor for me to examine. There were catnip toys, a banana and a heart, and a bag of primo catnip! Thus, today's Thursday Thirteen is a collection of 13 photos of us with our new toys. Thanks, Skeezix!

I'm so glad that Jake is outside snoozing on the deck so I can check out these toys first!












This nip is the best!


















Ahh, I'm feeling no pain!








So why did Mom have to invite Jake inside?







He proceeded to tear up the bag of catnip so Mom confiscated that for the time being.


















































Since Mom had downed a diet cola before leaving the office, she was well-caffeinated and ready to play with us for a while. While Jake was getting high on the 'nip, she played Whirly-bird with me. We don't have photos, but I had a great time and felt like a kitten again. I think I like that toy better than Jake does, and he's the one who received it as a birthday present.
Anyway, thanks again, Skeezix! We love nip toys.

Skeeze, Mom wanted us to open the plastic bags! We didn't do the best job on that so she finished that task for us later.

Persephone, you are funny!

Those are great toys, and I am glad you had FUN! It is always good when you can get a great toy and know it helped support Siamese Rescue, too. You two look so cute rolling around with the catnip toys!

Bathsheba,
We had the same reaction!!!!! That Nip from the Siamese Rescue is some potent stuff, isn't it!!! It make you hallucinate and think all kinds of crazy things! Have you put a little of the Nip on the ground yet and ROLLED around in it? You're in for a treat!

I'm so happy to see you enjoying your nip from VASR!! I've never had better nip, I think they harvest it themselves or something. The banana is my absolute favorite and I'm the only one allowed to play with it. *gasp* it has actually survived a YEAR in our house and is still highly potent!
