that picture should go on the *caption game*. It would then read:

"See, I'm tall enough to go on the big kid's rides!"

A new word I learned here at PT , is "my humans" ! LOL
And Amberlee's "hippo birdie ewe ewe ! and miiini mooore ! "

hahahaha !

Well... there is a Pet Talk phrase that now causes me some confusion at work. The 'big' manager loooooves to encourage us to "think outside the box". Now that I spend so much time here at Pet Talk, I have to stop and think about just what box it is we're to be thinking outside of. It doesn't seem so positive anymore.

Do you mean this? I have half caught it, but Mini is hard to photograph when he is doing the backwards pretzel (as well call it!)

I call it telescope cat.

And the cat loaf we call "roast goose". Tigris can do it purrfectly.

Yep, that is a lovely example of "zooming" (the backwards pretzel). I'm still trying to catch a picture of "monkeytoes" (back toes gripping). I may have to quit my job to just follow my kitty around the house and photograph him Wouldn't that be great? (I just got done with a 14 hour overnight shift, so the thought of quitting my job is like nirvana at this point!)

I can't believe I've missed this so far! FUNtastic! "Meat Loaf" is virtually Pip's middle name around here. There was a funny little book, I can't remember anything about it except that it began with the definition "CAT: a h--- of a nice animal strongly resembling a meat loaf." Also, since the Abys consider themselves fully, perhaps super-, "human." they refer to us as "our bipeds."

, but what is Parade Float Kitty???

I think I can take credit for "parade float kitty" - there was a post called 'kitty positions' or "kitty poses" or something like that...

I call "Parade Float Kitty" that posed they do when they sit on all of their feet - it looks like they are parade floats - just put little wheels under them and pull them down the avenue!x

The ecious gems the kitties left in the litter box were referred to as "Heyday Cookies". I don't know if they even make those cookies anymore, but they were like sugar wafers covered in caramel and chocolate, and then rolled in nuts. So the poopies covered with the old-fashioned clay litter looked just like those cookies.

We refer to Ritzy's visits to the litter box as "laying down the tootsie rolls"....yeah, Iknow..gross..

[tuxluvr]

Ahh I see you found kitty positions (after reading all the threads)


Here is the classic "parade float Ritzy"

[tuxluvr]

Here's another version of "cutie pie cat"....this is also a favorite "toe pose"....like "see my new French manicure?"

[tuxluvr]

A new position of Ritz's is to curl up on the couch with three feet stretched out and one foot under...the three are "stacked" on top of one another.....referred to as "bundlefoot"

Another is "otter cat"...when she lies on her back and plays with a toy mousie, then rests it on her upper tummy....reminded me of those nature shows with otters floating in the water on their backs with abalone shells on their tummies!


And of COURSE there is "working the room"...the cute cat pose that NO MORTAL can resist (on back, paws curled up, head slightly askew....well, you see the signature pic)

Tuxluvr, I think Ritzy makes a perfect parade float in that photo you posted!

Thanks..

I received a Sharper Image catalogue in the mail yesterday and was looking at it and saw this "cordless robot sweeper' thing that looked like a big platter that had wheels that rolled around on the floor and swept stuff up - as it bumped into things it would stop and move another direction..


My friend and I figured we could never have such a thing in our homes because of the cats...then we starting thinking...wait, couldn't you just see coming downstairs and your cat was "riding" on it? I couldn't stop laughing at the visual...a REAL parade float kitty!

Look, down on the ground, it's a rug, it's a shoe, NO it's SOOOPER CAT!

I think we can establish from this picture that cat's have rubber bones!
