First Peanut Video

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Thanks to Niina, here is the link to my first video of Peanut drinking.

My Little Bull Kitty

She does this everytime she drinks, and if you interrupt her drink, she will do it again before restarting her drinking. Sometimes she will stick her paws in the water and then lick them before sticking her head in and just drinking, but I couldn't get her to do that this time. But stay tuned! She'll have a shadow until she does it for me.

For those with dial-up, it might take a minute or two, but it should load. It's a .wmv so it should open up with the windows media player. Hope it works for everybody.

And thanks again Niina!!! You're the best!

Fabulous! I wonder what she thinks she's digging?? I have seen other cats do this and could never figure out why.

Never mind Peanut, you are loved just as you are. Looking forward to more videos.

Cute video. See what you mean about "pawing the ground."

That is so true, now the more quirker she is, the better videos I'll be able to take.

Thanks Slick & Freckles. She's such a goofball.

How frustrating!!! I want to see Peanut!

We had trouble watchin the movies, too.
Dad figgered out how to do it...

1) First Open "Windows Media Player"...
If there isn't a short-cut on your desktop;
Click on START;
POINT to "Programs"...
another box should pop up with "Windows Media Player" listed with the other programs -
Point to it and Left-CLICK...

The Player should open and fill the screen with the view box and a whole lotta ads...

2) RIGHT-click the Movie LINK on the PT page;

3) a Drop-Down Box appears...
4) POINT to "Copy LINK Location" and RIGHT-Click on it...

5) Back to the Windows Media Player screen...
6) Upper Left Corner - Left Click "File"...
** Drop-down box - find and LEFT-Click the chioce
** "Open URL"

7) The "OPEN" data box will appear...
Point the mouse inside the white box (delete anything that might be already in there),
Then RIGHT-Click and the Link Location you copied from the PT page **should** magically appear in the data box.

8) Punch the OK button - and the player should load the movie.
You might have to punch the big arrow just under the screen to *roll video*...

Sara, how 'bout if I email it to you? Do you think that would work? It says it's 486 kb's which isn't too big, so you should be able to get it, right? I'll try sending it.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Thanks for the help for those who might be having troubles Phred.

And thanks for the compliment. I thought it wasn't bad for my first video ever with this camera. Not that it's all that exciting, but I was thrilled just because I could do it. Sometimes technology is so cool.

high-tech software company and I don't have this on my programs......

[catland]

that's so cute! Do you purposely give her water in a tall glass to watch the show, or is that what she prefers?

Oooooh...

No Media Player??

Try this ~
You can Download the Windows Media Player at >>
the MicroSoft Site...

Just go for the *cheepie Basic* one - it should be a totally FreeBee version!

She does this no matter what the water is in. I give them their catsip in a saucer with the little cutout for the cup. Nice and flat, and she still does it.

And actually that just happens to be the glass that I had on the end table when they decided it was their glass. And it's the only plastic one we have around the house besides the big cupholder ones you get at McDonalds and such - which would be way too big for her. And this one works out well because it has "feet" on the bottom so I can "screw" it into the thick shag carpeting so it doesn't tip over.

And the reason for the extra piece of carpeting is because the original carpeting was getting grayish colored from always being rubbed on, so we covered it.

Thanks again, Phred. Hopefully with your help Sara will be able to see it.

[Edwina's Secretary]

Thank you Phred! I now have MediaPlayer on my machine!

I got to see Peanut in action!!!

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

See, Sara, hang around at PT for awhile and you'll become a computer whiz!

I'm glad you got to see it.

[NoahsMommy]

I can't wait to get home and see it!!!
