Back to Normal and Cubes

Fortunately Harlie is back to her own self. That first night after her surgery she was extremely hyperactive as I noted in the last post. But fortunately by the next day she was back to normal.

Also today I wanted to show you our cubes. Many kitties have them, and we LOVE ours. You'll notice our kitty condo in the background. I haven't written about that yet, but I will. We are just loving the cubes so much right now that I wanted to share those first. Here are some photos of us playing in the cubes (you can click to make bigger). Please note photos are not in sequential order.



Here we have already managed to turn the cubes on their side. Harlie is trying to extract me with the roof jump maneuver.





Here she is with a successful roof jump. She man only be 7 pounds, but she throws herself down pretty hard. I have a good advantage here though
because her tail is exposed!







Here Harlie is making use of the condo has higher ground. We are also enjoying the sounds our paws make when you rub them across the cube.










Here is a pause for rest. But the action picked up again very shortly after.




Anyone else out there enjoy their cubes? I personally think it's more fun with a buddy. But the cubes are also a fantastic napping place, and provide a nearby hidey place on short notice (when the bed is a little too far to make it in an instant). We LOVE our cubes!

Oh yes, our cubes get a lot of use. Misty plays in them all the time, sometimes alone or sometimes with one of us. I don't very often nap in them though, for fear of getting jumped on from the top!

I do not have a cube yet but I think I would like one very much. Mom says it may be a while before I get one though.

We have cubes but I usually flatten them. Mom says I don't get how to play with them, but really I'm trying to keep my sisters out of them because they're mine!

Bubbles, loves, loves his cube. He rolls the whole thing around in the living room, deposits all his mice victims in it, and attacks Mrs. B from it. Fun, fun, fun.

Happy to hear Harlie is doing much better now. Make sure you take good care of her, since you are her big brother.

Hi! I'm glad Harlie is doing better! The cubes look awfully fun, but mommy isn't sure if I would use it since I'm an only kitty. What do you think?

You two look like you are having so much fun!

I am not sure how I would get on with a cube, would it collapse if I sat on top of it? I am quite heavy...

We L-O-V-E our cubes. We have four of them. Mom and dad set them up like a little maze for us. Ours look like zebras. Maggie loves to hide in them and jump out on mom's feet when she walks by.

Ahhhhh, cubes...they are so fun!
