Cat Christmas 2008

The day before Christmas, a nice lady gave us kitties a present. Cameron and Percy checked out the box. Cameron said, tentatively, It looks okay. Let's see what's inside.



Jan opened the box, thinking she would just unfold it and..... Cotton's (not shown) eyes widened, Oh, no! It's got parts. Lots of parts to put together. And Jan can't follow directions. We'll never get to play with our new toy.


Percy: Jan finally sat down on the floor tonight and dumped everything on the floor. It's color coded. How hard can it be? Well, that depends on how many times one needs to take it apart and put it back together again. Here I am inspecting the first draft. Actually, I'm getting out before it falls on me.


Okay, it's finally finished. Now, it's Cyndi's turn to inspect it, But I have enough sense to do my quality check from the outside. Notice Jan managed to put it together wrong. There are no holes on the hammock side.


Now that the holes are correctly aligned, Rusty sticks his head inside. It's still standing, guys. Maybe it's safe to enter.


Okay, Percy calls to Rusty, I'll sit on the bookshelf in case I need to dial 911 for medical assistance!


Cameron does a close visual inspection. I don't know about this, Rusty. You might want to come out of there before Jan's handiwork collapses.


He,he, he, Cameron chuckles. Scared him right out of here.


Percy:: I thought he'd never leave. It's my turn again.

Hey, Percy
, Crystal whispers, Jan's eating turkey in the kitchen.


Percy: Ha! Did he really think I'd fall for that? Jan didn't cook a turkey this year. ** big sigh** At last. Peace and quiet in my new home.

We got a toy that required assembling too. We thinks Mommy got it put together right, but we still aren't sure about playing with it.

Enjoy your toy, we hopes you had a very Merry Christmas. ~S,S & C

How fun that looks. Is it sturdy enough to a chunky cat like myself?

Milo said...

What an absolutely wonderful play station - you will all have hours of fun. Jan is very clever to put it together 'cos our Mom woulda messed up - and had to call Dad to help!

Have fun!

Eric and Flynn said...

What a great present! My mom still has stuff in boxes and she refuses to put together. What are we going to do with the moms?

Directions? It's much more fun not to use them.

Looks like Jan did a great job.

Happy New Year!

Lux said...

Very cool, indeed! My mom's heart would've fallen, also, at the sight of all those *parts! ;-)

Looks like you all helped to get it put together perfectly!

Sassy Kat said...

That is one swell present you all got! Now you have to give Jan credit at putting it together, she did it. Now really with your paws do you think you could have gotten it together without her help? Yeah Jan, this one is for you!!!! Yeah again.
