Last summer we experienced The Attack of the Killer Moths in the condo. It was awful. The peeps killed them before I could eat them. This year I've only seen one and I've eaten the tasty little sucker. Last year, they feasted on the feathers and long furs on my toys. The peeps countered that attack by throwing out most of my toys. Of course, they didn't throw out anything of theirs! I could say something about that but I'm too polite. My furrends Pumpkinpuddy, A Tonk's Tail gang and Baby Patches, Chief Kit at NipandBones.com sent me very much appreciated care packages and I've won some other toys at Nipclub and on blogs. I thought I'd show you how my toy basket looks a year later. TW keeps toys in here that don't have feathers and ones I use most often. There's only one kicker with a feather in here and nothing better attack it except me!

Pop's bed is where I put my special toys. I have my heart from Buzzy, my iridescent smousy from Parker, Allie's snowman, 2 smousey toys from the Island Cats and the Packer's toy from Mario along with my peppermint stick which was the first toy Pop bought for me. It cost 1¢ and it's the best. You can see how flat it is cos I beat all the nip out of it. HAH!
Now that I've showed you my toys, I want to tell you about a special offer to add to your toy basket while helping one of our furrends aid a bunch of kitties. Andrea and the Celestial Kitties are holding a Winnie’s Wish Summer FUNdraiser. For a minimum donation of $15 ($18 for International furrends), you can get four kitty toys including a fish, smousy, bird and butterfly! You can request the toys be filled with nip, Silvervine or neither. I've requested the evil vine. The proceeds go to the Winnie’s Wish Rescue at Daily Dose of Dogs (aka Cats With Your Coffee). For complete details of the FUNdraiser, please visit the Celestial Kitties.
Check out these pretty toys (photo left). Bet you can't wait to kick, throw and maul them within an inch of their lives! I'm glad they come as a set cos I wouldn't be able to pick just one!
Can we play rockets, TW. I'm bored. I have nothing to play with.
I think you can never have enough toys, CK - or rockets!
ReplyDeleteWe remember the scandal of the moths and your toys being chucked out. Glad your toy stash has been replenished Keisha. Have a fabulous Friday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Sparkle has it right. You can never have enough toys! We lost some toys recently when an anonymous mancat barfed on one of the toy baskets. Talk about inconsiderate.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great fundraiser CK...Momz had to look up silvervine...you kitties have a lot of "mood enhancers" don't you? how come there's no nip for dogs I wonder...Momz recently did the same thing with my toys...she left ourt 4 (only 4!) of them and put the others away where I can't get them...not fair!
ReplyDeleteI think you and I have similar toy baskets! Heeee.
ReplyDeleteWe wish we could contribute to Winnie's Wishes. The toys are really sweet. I kinda hope someone gives them to a shelter, but then there would be a riot in the shelter, wouldn't there, so maybe somekitty else should get them!

You've amassed quite a collection of toys again, CK! But as the mom says to us...you can only play with them one at a time. Ehhhh...what does she know???
ReplyDeleteWe didn't know that moths eat toys! That's horrible. You've got some pretty toys! Mama hides some of our toys in another room until we forget about them (so she thinks), and then tries to fool us by saying their new when she brings them out again.
ReplyDeleteThey are very cool CK. Perhaps I will treat the Farm cats
ReplyDeletestar & leo iz makin sum awesum toys for ther pals over at winnie's !!!
ReplyDeletehope ewew haza grate flounder filled week oh end CK !!~~
NO, NO, No, nononononono! Now our mom is thinking of tossing all our toys and starting fresh!
ReplyDeleteHmm, fresh toys without dried drool....that might not be so bad...
We hope moths don't ever find OUR toys! We can't believe how *clean* your silvervine pillow is.
ReplyDeleteWaffles and I have discovered where the feather toys live. I planning a covert operation to send him in and rescue all the feathers. After which I'll promptly lure him into the closet and ...
ReplyDeletewait, I don't know how to shut the door.

Pawsome toys, CK!!! And a wonderful cause. We love Winnie's Wish. xoox
That was so nightmarish when your old toys got thrown out, CK! ::shudders::
ReplyDeleteWe're glad to see that your collection has been replenished, and with such nice toys.
Awesome toys for the FUNdraiser for Winnie's Wishes. We hope it's a huge success!
That looks like our toy basket. The more the merrier. We still have a moth eaten squirrel toy of Merlin's that 19 years old! He won't let me throw it out but we do rotate toys :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reminder about the Winnie's Wish toys...we hardly have anything to play with CK!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to get over there and get another set of toys for Mario. I think we took advantage of buying her toys several months ago, and he finally wore them out. So happy you are getting a full toy basket again CK.
ReplyDeleteOh boy CK! I didn't realize how desperate you were for toys! Why, you have hardly anything! It's shocking how some humans keep their kitties so bored with nothing at all to play with...
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for advertising the Summer FUNdraiser!!
Toys are fun, but chasing moths is more fun! Me-Ommmmm
ReplyDeleteCK I think it's a rule or something, a cat can never have too many toys.
ReplyDeleteHey C.K, it looks as if you and Brian were of like minds today with your posts. We would be very unhappy if any of our toys were held hostage. We suspect we would have to revolt. Have a great weekend. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Lisbeth, Astrid and Calista Jo
ReplyDeleteI thought the moths WERE the toys!! But they don't smell of nip, though :( mol
ReplyDeleteYou got fabulous collection of toys! You are so cute on Pop's bed with your toys. Looks like you are having very good dream :-)
ReplyDeleteWow you sure are one lucky cat! I wonder if Honey D. would like to play with some cat toys. You know, I do the same thing as TW with the toys only for my human baby. She has all this stuff so I gotta put some up otherwise it would be covering the floor!
ReplyDeleteMy mom is a toy Gestapo too !
ReplyDeleteShe take toy´s away and hide them in a basketthat I can´t get to myself *sigh*
Me is going to get moms creditcard so I can order some toy´s from Celstial Kitties !
XOXO
Oh Cat CK!!! My Mom likes what TW does with your toys...keeping a bunch hostage...MOUSES!! She thinks I get bored or just don't care...HAH! I just know how to control my impulses unlike Mom and Dad
