Two Cats (and a Phantom) Tuesday: The Squeaky Mousie and Cat Trap Blankie

Happy Two Cats and a Phantom Tuesday, Cuteheads! Today Pimp and Moo are "trapped" on the couch... and Phantom is making it so no one is ever going to get any sleep around here.

Have you all ever tried to trap your kitties somewhere? I bet you have!

Pimp and Moo love to sleep on the couch (and of course they are totally allowed), but I am just not a big fan of having to vacuum it every day just so I can sit on it. And so I designed this handy, never-fail cat trap.

Snug as to cats on a trap.
It's called a blanket.

I'm sure you've used this tactic before. Boxes also work very well for the same purpose. You put a box or a blanket down, and the cat will appear on it within minutes. Tada! It's like it was a trap. :)

Zzzzzzz...
And now here's the silly boy... Phantom loves to play! He is a crazy nut! He just had endless energy, and so I try to get stuff to keep him busy.

When I saw this squeaky mouse at the story, I just knew he'd love it. And so I bought it for him -- and now all I hear is squeak squeak squeak all the time.

But how could I care about that? Just look how happy it makes him!

  2. My cats are allowed just about any place they want to go in the house so my furniture is always covered with something for them to stretch out on. Pimp and Moo have a pretty "trap". Enjoyed watching Phantom play with his mousy!! Sweet.

  3. Your cat, Moo, looks a lot like my girl, PK..... Cow cats are sure widespread! Theyre all adorable! I also have a tuxedo, Mouse.. Shes relatively new to our family, but settled right in.

    Poor Phantom is probably wondering why that mouse just won't die! :)

  7. Awwww!! Phantom loves his toy! :) He is so cute! The cat traps are great, blankets, boxes, newspaper and tissue paper work great in our house.

    Newspapers work as cat traps, also.


    We have one of those squeaky mice and a bird, also. Sometimes they start squeaking for no reason. ;-)

  9. Yes, the cat trap is used in this house too!! I love to watch them play with their toys like that. Phantom was carrying that mouse as if it was live prey. So cute!!!

  10. What really works well is your best white sweater, if you have black kitties, or your best black sweater, if you have white kitties. Never, ever fails.

  20. Love the cat trap ! I bought a mousie just like that one for Louie when he was a kitten. Lately Venus played with the mouse... until it went for a swim in the dog's waterdish. Now it doesn't squeak !

  21. My kitties had one of those until one of the dogs chewed it up :( I need to get another one cause they loved it!

  22. Phantom is having the time of his life!! And so are Pimp and Moo. Phantom is a beautiful black cat. I love black cats!

    On our couch we have a cat basket for Frank next to my husband and one for Jack next to me. So basically there is more cuddling with the cats than with each other. :)
