going on a bug hunt- video

**Sirrahsim** · 03-09-2004, 04:18 PM

i inadvertantly must have let in a fly while cleaning the porch yesterday. Boomer thanks me muchly for having done so!! The lighting is bad because it was taken at about 6am. The garbage bag on the floor is a result of our trashcan being out on the porch getting it's regular lysol bath. If you listen closely you can hear Boomer's little meow/cackle at times

The Prey:

The mighty hunter watches with intensity:

It's a good thing you told us there was a fly, and showed us the evidence before posting the video.....otherwise we might have thought Boomer was loosing it, looking up and spinning around like that. And when he goes into the other room and it's dark - how can he see a fly in that light!!!

Great video.

I'm sure glad you got that camera and figured out how to post the videos.

Oh Boomer, did you ever get that nasty fly?
I just loved your video, but I just fell in love with your little cackles.

That's what I was thinking! Cats are amazing.

Great pictures and video! Did he catch the fly?

That is just too funny. Boomer did you ever catch the fly???

So cute!

Boomer you pretty boy!

Sunny loves those bug hunts! He catches them but my lamps and other things usually end up in the floor! He gets the cutest look as he enjoys munching his catch.

I never saw him munching on it, but I haven't seen the fly for a little while, so I'm assuming that his hunt was successful

Go Boomie, Go Boomie, Go Go Go Boomie

He's currently tossing a plastic spoon up in the air and then chasing it

I love how he can entertain himself

Haha, that's so sweet

I turned up the volume and finally caught the *cackle* - too cute!!! Does he do the lower jaw quiver with it? I love when the kitties do that - twins do it for birds, bugs and moths, etc. FUNNY!!
