Ninja Kittens

[SeaCat]

I am sitting here holding my sides they hurt so much.

The kittens have had their first introduction to a Palmetto Bug and are doing their Ninja Kittens routine. I have kittens flying everywhere on the Patio. (My wife has made me close the screen door so the bug doesn't get inside.)

One of them, Scrapper, managed to pin it for a couple of minutes. She stood there with it pinned beneather her front paws and was looking at me as though to say. "OKay I caught it, now what do I do?"

Cats track and pounce by hard-wired instinct, but they have to be taught how to kill.

All kitten's are nijas.

I thank you,

Cough, Choke..

many things I would have called you (all good)..

My kitten and I just had first mouse in appartment experience.

She cornered it, I shooed it into the garbage can. She was having lots of fun chasing it around, catching it, letting it go, catching it again...

I let it go outside.

Thanks I am sure are in order. I'm just not sure for what.

I just can't imagine these kittens reaction to a mouse.

They are absolutely fascinated by the occasional lizard that gets in. Chasing and playing with it until it plays dead.

They watch the Tree Rats with undisguised Glee as they sit outside the patio and chatter at them.

A Mouse? I just can't see it, and somehow I think I can wait for the natural disaster of them chasing one inside the trailer.

She chased it, then it played dead so she backed off... and it ran... so she caught it again...

She brought me mouse number 2 a moment ago. It's in the garbage awaiting it's transport back outside.

Are you sure it isn't the first mouse back for some more fun?

If so, it climbed up to a second floor appartment from out on the street as fast as I did!

 

[AngelofDarkLust]

Somewhere I have a pic of my grandmother's Siamese with two tails sticking out of her mouth and one pinned beneath her paws...

With the look of HOLY SHIT, WHAT DO I DO NOW?

Hey it might be having fun. Have you ever seen just how fast those mini rats move when they want to?

I want to see our kittens when they run into something like a Curly Tail. (A six inch long lizard that thinks it's six feet long.) That should be funny.

We'll see... mouse 2 is out on the street... if she catches another I'm going to be suspicious!

I hope we don't run into more crawlies... it's one thing to have them on the porch or farm... another thing to have 'em run under your feet and hide under your computer desk away from kitten.

She's still running about trying to find it. She thought she lost it when I put it in the garbage... didn't realize it was still there... feel kinda bad, she was so proud of her catch.

They are always so proud of their catches.

She's running to all the places she had it cornered in turn, searching my appartment for the mouse. She's upset she lost it. I feel bad now.

One of the final bits of a kitten's education is when mama cat shows the kitten how to make a killing bite. There is no education necessary to show the kitten how to chase and pounce, but the killing bite really needs to be taught.

She was on a horse farm with lots of other cats until she was 12 weeks... she's 17 weeks now. I assume she knows how to kill, when the time comes... she was just having too much fun chasing and pouncing to do any killing.

Maybe, maybe not. I worked at a place that was out in the boondocks. We had mouse problems and they kept a cat. Wgenever the cat brought in a dead mouse, the cat got some sort of kitty treat that the guard would take out of the freezer and warm up in the microwave. The incentive plan worked well and the mouse incidents were kept to a minimum.
