Pouncer was sitting in one of his trouble-making spots last night but looked so darned pretty!

He sits on the ledge (hard to see it, but, trust me, its a little shelf/ledge) and then bats at the little balls at the end of the switch to turn the lights on!

He usually does this when we are either on the phone or in the middle of the night. All you hear is very loud clang clang clang as the metal ball hits the metal lamp base.

Here he looks postively angelic (but we know better ;) )

You can tell he's spying on the little ball.... "you better watch out or I'll swat you!"

That is SOOOO CUUUUUTE!! Of course, he is always adorable!!:D :D :D :D http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif
We had lamps like that but Leroy learned how to turn the lights on and off! You would wake up in the middle of the night and the living room lights would be on! Scared me to death the first couple of times!!! Those lamps have since been retired. They hit the floor too many times during Leroys adventures!http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif

I still think he looks like an angel. I can not imagine that Pouncher gets into that much trouble;) ;) ;)

It is the innocent looking ones that you really have to watch out for.:eek:

Great pictures, I am not sure about an angelic looking in that last pictures. He looks like is is ready to show that little light switch whos boss. However, he is always a great looking kitty.:)

Ah - a Tiffany lamp.... Good taste, Pouncer:D

Tigris takes his shoulders (strong boy kitty shoulders) to shift my lamp from my bedside table - a sound that succeeds in waking me very quickly:D )

How angelic he looks in that 2nd picture! A lamp like that wouldn't have half a chance in this house. (HECK, it wouldn't have a quarter of a chance ;) )

Silly little Pouncer! You sure are a handsome boy even if you are a bit of a trouble maker :)

This one didn't have much of a chance either... it has been knocked off the table and has some major cracks that I need to have repaired... but since I bought it the artist has become quite well known, so having him fix it is out of my budget any time soon.

In the meantime, what do you guys think of me doing a colored rendering of this? I've been looking for something to strike my fancy and I think this might be it!

I think it would be a good subject for your project. Go for it!!

Gee that sweet little innocent kitty surely could do no harm, Pouncer is such a cutie.

I have a habit of taking my earings off and leaving them on the lounge coffee table, but I have since learnt if I want to own any earings at all, I had better put them away, a rather not so sleepy Lexie finds pushing them off the table and loosing them rather fun.(especially as all the household is sound asleep) I mean hey what is a kitty to do?

Aren't kitty's so mischievious darling little creatures!!!!??:D

These pictures are beautiful and I am sure they would look even more beautiful if you frame them and place them next to the tiffany lamp...he's such a pretty boy!!!:) :) :)

bisi.cat that was a wonderful idea!! I would not have thought of that!! How cute that would be!! Of course, in my house the frame woudl be on the floor by morning but it sure would look good for awhile!!
A framed picture of Pouncer would look good anywhere!!!http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif
