When you're this big, they call you Mister



Do you remember that yawn-squeak that Mommy talked about and was trying to capture on film? Well, she was beginning to think it was as difficult to get video of as the Loch Ness Monster! She tried everything she could and it just didn't work. The Ball Guy tried once and, well, he got it!

You may have to turn up the volume a bit to get the full effect. Mommy thinks this is the cutest thing, so I often use it to get squeezes and extra treats!




The Ball Guy told Mommy that she tried too hard to get it and that I knew what she was trying to do. Actually, I just liked that he called me Mr. Sam!

That is seriously cute, Mr Sam! I see why your Mummy fusses over you so much when you do it.

That is just the cutest yawn-squeak! We can't believe the ball guy got it in his first try!
Have a nice weekend, Mr. Sam.

Mr. Sam, we usually keep our audio muted but we turned it up just for you! That is so cute (and we like the Ball Guy's commentary, too!)

Happy Friday from

Such a tiny sound coming out of such a big, floofy mancat! It is adorable, though. The Ball Guy rules! Just curious why he's called The Ball Guy -- does he only have one?

The Monkeys said...

We don't usually comment on our own posts but Mom is laughing and we're sure The Ball Guy is cringing somewhere. He's called 'The Ball Guy' because he plays fetch with Delilah. We've heard Mommy call him 'Brad', though.

She said 'thank you' Wendy for making her laugh :)

How long does it take you to clean yourself, Sam? My goodness! Those frontal shots of you always make me shudder. You're quite a large mancat!

Super cute video! My human pet enjoyed it!

And when you are THAT cute I just bet you get cuddled lots, too!

Poppy Q said...

Awww look at all that floofiness. Awesome.

Noir the Texas Tabby said...

That is too wonderful! I like how you turned when you heard your name (I still refuse to acknowledge mine at times) and just did it. LOVE it! BEAUTIFUL!

Mishkat said...

P.S. Re your comment on our toy post, our mom should have said "one NEW toy" at a time. She sometimes takes a bunch of the old ones away and stores them in a big jar with some catnip in the bottom - this makes them "new" to the cats after a while.

And she has the same vacuuming problem too - she tries to throw them all back in the cat cube (aka toy storage), but there are always a few surprises!

Hello the Monkeys,

This is good news, nice weather for tomorrow. The weather man has compared the climate over here to be like spring not summer. About the cookie, the mommy will ship the toy this week, it does look good! I cannot wait to taste it. You guys look so majestic!

Wishing a great night!
