The Joy of a New Toy!

Lobster Roll

This is my toy lobster. He is a good lobster, most of the time. But sometimes he acts bad.

Lobster, I am going to eat you up. Hahahahaha! I am just pretending!

AAAIIIEEEE! I SAID I was just pretending. Get out of my mouth!
Lobster, you made me crabby. That is sort of a joke. But not really.
I made up with my lobster toy. On account of he makes a cute hat.

The end.

Tattle Tail Tuesday: Upstairs Toys

Pssst! It's me, Daisy. I am sneaking a peek in the big bedroom upstairs, because I want to show you something...

Every night, Harley digs through the toybox downstairs, and drags a toy upstairs to play with! Just this week so far, he has dragged SIX toys upstairs:

1. Blue wand toy
2. Pink wand toy
3. Little brown bear
4. Pink squeaky mouse
5. Bottle cap
6. Wubba toy with rattles
   

At the end of the week, my Mommeh brings all the toys back downstairs to the toybox, and it starts all over again!

Harley, sorry I gave away your secret toy obsession. Okay. I'm not really sorry. Lying is a little bit wrong.

Changing the Toys

Here is our TOYBOX. In the FAMILY room. It holds LOTS of toys. But sometimes, they get BORING. So we have to CHANGE the toys to FRESH toys. Sort of like rotating your TIRES.

I cannot make up my MIND about which toys to PICK.
I will let DAISY decide.
But I will SNOOPERVISE to make sure she picks GOOD toys.
Here is our FINAL selection!
But I think DAISY might be having SECOND thoughts!

Wordless Wednesday: WUBBA!

Ship-Wrecked

AHOY, MATEYS! It's me again. Harley! Daisy let me borrow her SAILOR cap because I am having a NAUTICAL adventure. Is that the same thing as NAUGHTY? I am not sure.

This cap is a little TOO SMALL for my MANLY head. But I can still wear it at this RAKISH angle.

WHOA NELLY! The seas are getting ROUGH! Hang on TIGHT!

I am going to DROP ANCHOR. I accidentally chewed the anchor off my boat, so this is a SUBSTITUTE anchor that got tied onto the MAST. I am not sure the anchor will REACH the bottom of the SEA.

I am feeling SEASICK now. Good bye.

Gone Fishing!

You are not going to BELIEVE this, but I found a toy that is BETTER than the Cat Dancer. It is this FISHING POLE toy that my Mommeh got from the cat show a few weeks ago. And fishing is very MANLY!

I am NOT ALLOWED to play with this toy by MYSELF, because I get too WILD with it. Here is where I first CAPTURED the bait.

I will NEVER let go, not matter WHAT happens!

Sometimes I try to PULL the fishing pole right OUT of my Mommeh's HAND! I am very STRONG you know. See how I BENT the pole?

TWISTING all around like a SWORDFISH is a good tactic to get the bait FREE!

NOTHING can make me RELEASE the bait. Maybe that is why I am NOT ALLOWED to play with the fishing pole by MYSELF!

Wait a minute... am I the FISHERMAN or the FISH?

Gone Fishing!

Some Toysday Fun!

Harley and I are very lucky, because we got these very fun wand toys from our great friends at Sleeping Kitten - Dancing Dog! I told Harley that the pink one is mine, and he can have the blue one.

At first, I got a little overly excited. Can you tell by my Googly Eyes?

Then I decided I should settle down and concentrate. This is my concentrating face.

But since I am a good model, I am always aware of the camera, even when I am playing!

Harley, on the other paw, is a wild man!
He plays with GUSTO, and a lot of joy.
Then, Harley noticed that he needed to fix his pedicure.
Thank you for our presents! We love them!

Some Toysday Fun!

Meet Ben, my Plague Ratsie!

It's me again. HARLEY! I have been reading EVERYWHERE about a wonderful toy called a PLAGUE RAT! So I asked my Mommie if Daisy and I could GET one, and she said YES!

We bought this toy from my FRIEND, Baby Patches. She has her own store. With RATS! And here's my very own RAT! I have named him BEN! He's very LOVELY.

HELLO, BEN! Can you HEAR me? You will be my NEW friend. Okay? OKAY?! Why don't you ANSWER me, Ben?!

How LONG is your TAIL, anyway? I think MY tail is LONGER, Ben. Does that BOTHER you?

Ben, I ADORE you a little bit. THANK YOU for being my very own PLAGUE ratsie. Um, you would not give me the plague, right?

♫ Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you, my friend, will see
You've got a friend in me ♫

Meet Ben, my Plague Ratsie!

Some Toys are Confusing

Here is a game called "Red Dot." I have still not figured out how to win at this game. Even when I spread all my toes real wide, I cannot hold onto the Red Dot.

The Red Dot, it always slips through my paws. And then I am left with nothing but memories.

Harley is trying to learn the secret of the Red Dot. But I do not think he is smart enough to figure it out.

Do you see the Red Dot here? Somehow, it climbed onto his back. Maybe it is like fleas. Or cooties.

Here comes Harley! I better get out of his way, FAST!

Taking food from the rat's mouth

This is one of my extra-special toys. Can you see what is on the inside? FOODS! When you roll the toy around, food comes right out of the rat's mouth. (I must say here that I have some very nice rat friends, and I like rats a lot).

I am thinking hard here. Is eating this food like stealing it right from the rat's mouth? Will the rat go hungry? Is it the same as eating BOMIT?! Should I have to work for my foods?

I am pretending not to notice the foods while I figure this out...
Nom, nom, nom, nom. This tastes delicious!
My new rule: eat first, think later.

ps: I think my Mommie will be getting back from Key West sometime today!
