Meow! Come and Play your cat

Post Reply New Topic

Love the new Renaissance Cat Tower.

Hmm
That looks important.
I think I’ll lie down and take a nap.

^^^ What's your name newkitty?

Hello, newkitty from Emily the mottled brown duck hen! I'm going to wade in the lake and look for faerie sprites, but I hope you have a nice nap!

Quackenbush is a most self-contained duck.

He loves observing the quaint proceedings from afar.

Zandrian: hmm, all these cats think of is eating and sleeping.
How dull.
Think I'll play with the ducks a bit.
They're very pretty.

What kind of things do squirrls do Zandrian? Do you not like to eat and sleep? The bliss of dreaming about eating? Do you have a human slave? What kind of games do you play? I myself have a game involving a small toy mouse, but it requires the human to throw it. I’d like to go on an adventure, but I need a jolly good nap before setting off. Then perhaps a bite to eat...

Do come and play, Zandrian! Find a piece of bark and sail beside me on Lake Brontë! We can explore the magic waterfall past the willow trees!

Ok! I have a large acorn I can throw for the kitty that likes playing with the toy mouse. You can jump up and catch it with your dainty paws.

A magic waterfall sounds awesome. I love the gentle tranquil sound of falling water. If I listen long enough I'll fall asleep but not before a tasty snack.

Emily has overheard Jessie's query toward Zandrian and she interjects in turn, seemingly breathless, "Indeed! No coward soul is mine! I do not and shall not depend on humans for my amusement or my survival! I am a hearty creature of self-sufficient means, save the occasional delivery of duckweed - which is arranged by our cat princess herself in contradiction of my need! The wise, teal-topped Quackenbush is correct to assert that I struggled to find my wings as I grew, but that I shall sail on like "silver girl" toward the future when and if I am so inclined. I am no bird, and no net ensnares me: I am a free duckly being with an independent will! Humph!”

Emily fluffs her feathers and realises that she sounds obtuse. The animals gaze at her most confusedly, and Zandrian wanders away to find a piece of bark upon which he can float. She clears her throat and continues, "On the other wing, folks, I do like to eat and nap and play as much as the rest of you! There are indeed some friendly humans, too. Pass me some duckweed and let's see if I can't chase Naia's red dot! I'm no different than you all. Your friendship is my gain, and I'd be happy to roll among the reeds or dance like a Disco Duck!"

At that, Emily quacks the lyrics to her favourite Bee Gees tune, chases Samantha toward the lake and does the 'John Travolta' in celebration of this magnificent day.

*With duckly quotations by the misses Charlotte and Emily Brontë*

LETS GO MAMA!

Jessie dancing wiggling her hind quarters and tossing the acorn high, batting it and chasing it - all in a fenzy of dancing and playing.

Dear Emily, what's this duckweed stuff? Is it edible?

How cute you are, Jessie! I love drifting on this small log, lazily watching you play with that big acorn.

Cat company and duck fellowship! Amid scenes of idyllic beauty, what more could one ask for?

A touch of magic maybe...

Hey mom & dad

You moved stuff around AGAIN.

OK found a toy , check
Water bowl check
Is it time to eat, no check
Nap time.

Where’s the litter box
Oh yes behind the big screen
Argh where’s the big screen

Jessie is exhausted after the acorn game, which went on for a very long time. She loves showing off for her new friends and wishes she could sail on a piece of bark like the pretty squirrel Zandrian.

What magic will happen next? Will a door appear to another dimension? Oh gosh I hope there are not dragons!! ! I would love to go on a trip. I have heard there are many other places where animals rule and have no need for human slaves. What would that be like?

Jessie daintily licks between each toe and cleans her face and ears, ready to go to sleep beneath the ferns as the stars twinkle in the velvet sky.
