Thursday Thirteen: Edishun 8

This week: Thirteen Things I can't live withowt and yoo shoodn't, eether:

1. Heeted Cat Cup

This is a GRATE bed! The surface stays 12 - 15 degreez above the ambient temp, and win yoo git in it, it rizes to 102 degreez, wich I can varify is ixzaktly the rite heet for yoo to nap by. And the wall of the bed is the purrfikt hite for resting yer chin. And it's masheen washubul! And the high walls make it good for kerling up tite and feeling kozy.


2. Petmate Water Fowntin

Fresh filterd water, 24 howrs a day. Like me, most cats prefer drinking running water to still, and the pet fowntin provides running filterd water. Always fresh-tasting! Only problim is that Rocky can praktikly drink it dry in one sitting, and then he goze to the litter box and depozits the water thare in big ole' briks of seemented cat litter.


3. Think Pink Swetter

OK, is this not the kyootest outfit ever? I got one of theeze as a berthday gift, and I LOVE it!!! It's vary snuggly and warm, not to menshun KYOOT! And pink. Mezhure nek-to-tale to figyur owt yer size. I'm a small. It also has loops for the bak legs to keep it frum riding up on ya, but I'm not wild abowt that, so we klipt thoze off.


4. Toy Shoppe Ticklers

Theeze are all pretty grate, but I rekommend the ferst one and the last one: the "streamers" and the "feather boa." Kaze the Cat (no relayshun) is nuts abowt the streamers. For just $3, yoo can have a millyun dollers werth of fun.

5. Laser Pet Toy

All I can say is FUN FUN FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And it's a good weppin to have arownd in case the vishus deer brake into yer howse and try to blind yoo with thare lazer beem eyes: yoo can blind 'em rite bak!!


6. Catnip Bouquet

I'm not much of a nip-hed, but Rocky always rekummends that if yoo are trying to woo a sweethart, yoo shood send a Catnip Bookay. Or just git one for yerself if yoo find yerself alone on a Saterday nite.


7. Cal Bears Swetter

One of many things I like abowt this swetter is that win I git all warmd up, I can eezily take it off withowt the Food Lady's help. It keeps me vary toasty warm and the bloo color goze vary nice with my bloo eyes. It fits reely good, too, with a nice range of moshun, wich many of yoo know izn't always the case with clothes deezined for dawgs. (BTW, Stanferd duzn't make dog swetters; the Food Lady alreddy chekt, but that's fine becuz I like the bloo better than red.)

Heer are sum other kolleejit swetters:



8. Planche à Griffe - Cosmic Kardbord Skracher (dubbul wide)

If yoo git one of theeze, yer in for a reely good skratch. The Food Lady and Mr TF started gitting theeze (a long time ago before I was borned) for Rocky, hoo woodn't use a tradishunul skraching post. He tore the posts on the dek to shreds until they got the kardbord skrachers. See, yoo can put nip on 'em, and it falls into the kraks, wich makes for a grate skraching and halloosinating ixpeerience. Rocky wasn't the only one hoo loves theeze skrachers: we all do! And I highly rekommend the dubbul wide so yoo can reely dig into it withowt falling off.

Thare was a time win Rocky used the skracher as a bed. He'd never leeve it, ixsept to eet and poop and pee.

9. My Pink Bathrobe


If a pikchur's werth a thowsund werds, this pikchur is werth a millyun dollars or werds or whutever. Win Kismet got his Hugh Hefner smoking jakkit for the grotto, it occurrd to me that I reely reely needed a ROBE! So I wint shopping on the innernet, and fownd the purrfikt one. I keep bugging the Food Lady to take a pikchur of me in it, but she hasn't yet, so yoo'll just have to imajin my face thare insted of that stoopid dawg. It looks MUCH better on me, becuz, as yoo know, PINK is my color.


9. Wysong Daily Dream Treats

Theeze are a mirakul food. My best frend Lux gave me sum for my berthday, and WOW! They are GRATE! And I never eet treets! Not only that, evry singul cat we've fed theeze to have LOVED them beyond reezun. But that's not all: theeze are natchurul, HELTHY treets, so thare good for yoo, and thare made of 100% chikkin (other flaverz are avaylubul, but we stik with the chikkin). I cood eet them all day. Since we all LOVE them, the Food Lady izn't stuk buying 3 or 4 diffrint kinds of treets to keep us all happy: we all LOVE Wysong's Daily Dreem Treets. I wish they'd hire me as thare spokescat. (Do yoo think I cood start a letter-riting campane?)

10. Jeep Rubicon Pet Stroler

If yer an indoor cat hoo pines for the grate owtdoors, strolers are grate. Thare not for evry cat (ask Kaze), but I just adore mine. I wish we cood go stroling evry nite. Refer to sum of my reesint blogs for deetales on my stroling advencherz. And the most popyooler strolers are all in one place heer. If yer seerius abowt buying one, chek owt Ebay.

11. My Whirly*Pop Klubhowse


For only abowt $25, yoo can buy a Whirly*Pop Klubhowse just like mine! It's kind of a pane becuz thare's sum stuff inside the box win it comes that yoo have to take owt, but once it's emty, it's the best darn klubhowse on erth!!!!

12. Whirlybird Cat Toy


I lernd erly on that if sumthing sez "Whirly" on it, it's bownd to be fun! The Whirlybird cat toy is a fishing pole that has a fethery berd attached to it. Yoo git yer persun to make it go and it makes flittery sownds like bird wings. As yoo can planely see in this moovey, it is a pritty grate toy. The minit I heer the distinktiv fluttery sownds, I run as fast as I can to play with it. Yoo can buy it at whirly-bird.com.(The web site looks kinda iffy, but it's lejit.)

13. Totully Deevoted Peepul
I'm lukky to have the best peepul on erth. Even if they didn't have a singul penney to buy me all this neet stuff, they'd still be the best becuz they absolootly adore me and treet me like royalty, and they tot me how to blog, and they akt like I'm the senter of thare yooniverse. I'm vary vary lukky.

Hey Skeezix- That whirly-bird toy looks just like the toy my mommy made for me.. an she said it would be purrfect if it made chirpy sounds... I showed her yur post an she said "there's nothin new under the sun" Whatever that means. Sumtimes humans say stoopid things.

R&C -- Win the innernet sends me thoze nice boxes, they have to stuff stuff inside so that the sides don't kave in why thare in the brown truk or the man in the bloo shorts' wite jeep. Otherwise, I'd just end up with flat peeses of kardbord, not nice boxes.

Great list. :) I'll have to look at purchasing one of those heated cat beds for Dragonheart. He's a Sphynx cat who will be coming to live with us in 9 days. Since he's a Sphynx, he doesn't have any fur to keep him warm, so a heated bed would be very much appreciated, I think.

Happy T13. :)

The caring humans are # 1. But . . . Cats love those scratching boards (Super Scratchers) with catnip. They are a must for indoor cats, even for declawed cats . . . (I don't agree with this practice, however).
GREAT LIST.

I have been wondering if you got your robe yet. I can't wait to see a picture of it. I think maybe what we should do is send out valentine cards to the ladies with us on them in our robes!

Kaze said...

Yeah...those wand toys are THE BEST THING EVER!!!!! You inspired me to blog about them today.

And its not that I'm against strollers per se...just the Out of Doors. I like to snuggle in the stroller while its in the kitchen, just no where near the Out of Doors.

Those treats look yummy. The Lap Lady is going to have to find those at the Health Food store when she gets me some more lysine.

I tried to find Merlin a sweater like your Cal sweater... but sadly they don't have one for my college. I will have to talk to Merlin's grandmother about knitting him one...

What a good list Skeezix! It's nice to have the inside information from such a well-versed Cat.

Oh my, I don't think I should let my cat Tigger see this one or he'll present his Mommy (me) with a huge Christmas list. I think he would want everything on this list except for the pink stuff...

Numbers 2 and 13. Tho I could do wifout 13 if number 2 didn't need refillin an cleanin.
One complaint bout the fountain: They don't filter the water before it goes thru the pump, so the pump gets clogged wif cat hair an bits from the toys Victor keeps drownin. Then I need number 13 to FIX IT! NOOooooooOW!

Victor Tabbycat said...

Oh, I surtainly need Number 13 an I reely like Number 2. I haf sumfing like Number 4 (in my video, the same one as Mao) that I lurve. Call number 9 any treats, an OH WOW - Temptayshuns! Grate list, but what bout cat food?
Hey, my verification word is "WARMftu" cuz you gots lotsa fings there fur keepin WARM!

That was a very informative Thursday 13! We shouldda had a clubhouse box too, but DaddyKitty cut it up and put it in the recycling today! Mommakitty asked him not to, but Daddy kitty said it was too big (bigger than yours) - he said maybe when he gets some more puter stuff he'll make us a clubhouse (doubt it!) He does puter stuff at home all day too - like Mr. TF!

Well, I must agree with all your choices, you being the final word in kitty fashions, toys & such. But #13 is certainly the top choice. You are very lucky to have such a great family.

I am in love with Skeezix. You make my heart smile when I visit your blog. I just wonder what on earth happened with the vishus deer.

Have to agree with you about the cardboard scratcher, Skeezix! I was trained to scratch on them so when I came to live here there was just the regular scratching posts, which I didn't pay attention to at all! But I found that carpeting works almost as well as cardboard. You may want to remember this point if your beans get stingy on buying a new scratcher when the cardboard on the old one wears out...

i will not be letting my cat see this post. His Christmas list will be incredibly long!

Both the kitties and puppies want #2 for Christmas. We'll need to hide the laptops so they don't see the rest of your list and get any ideas!

That's one spoiled cat! I hope you have matching pink robes.

Skeeeeezix the Cat said...

Kizzy -- Yes, I got my robe, but the Food Lady hasn't taken my pikchur in it, yet. (Don't git me started!) I think it wood be fun to do a Valentine's Day card together: that way, I can have a go at yer overflow! (Wood I need to git my own grotto lair?)

While I adore all the clothes, the heated bed is what really caught my eye.

When I get my $20,000 for my next personal appearance, I'm going to have to look into buying one for each room of the house!

Nice list, Skeezix!

Very fine list, Skeezix. Good to meet you! Sorry to say there are not kitties at our house - I'm very allergic to them - but we do have 2 cat loving dogs! Welcome to the TTer's and stop by my blog anytime! Happy Thanksgiving!
