eBay’s Big Adventure

Hi there! Mom said I could use the computer to tell (and show) you my big adventure the other day. Plus, that stupid dog Bella always gets to tell her stories (and she can’t even capitalize her words!) and I hardly ever do.

Anyway, you probably saw that slo-mo clip the other day that featured me. Well, Dad was on the front porch with the camera trying to film hummingbirds at the feeder and he had the door open. I can’t resist an open door, especially up here. Now, I am not an outdoor cat but since I am so good outside Mom takes me out once in a while and I get to eat grass and roll around while she stands there and watches me. I don’t run off. But Dad didn’t want to watch me, so he went and got me. He had me by the scruff of the neck because I was fighting him and as he went past the camera he lifted me up in front of it. I think it made a funny clip and I know many of you out there enjoyed it! I could never reach the feeder on my own.
The other day Dad was out trying to get footage of a chipmunk jumping from the aspen tree into the bird feeder and Mom let me outside. Here I am playing kitty in the tall grass.











Then I saw a butterfly on a flower! I decided to stalk it.



I got closer and closer ... it still wasn’t moving ...



until finally, I touched it with my nose!



And then it flew away up into the sky.

After that I saw a chipmunk and chased it. Mom thought I had caught it and I think I almost did. I ran really fast through all that tall grass, as fast as I could. Mom didn’t even know I could move that fast! The chipmunk survived and Mom picked me up and told me that it was quite enough excitement for one kitty.

And, that’s my big adventure!

Cuz eBay,

Very cool she just touched it with her nose and didn’t try to eat it.  Glad she didn’t catch the chipmunk.  Did Rick get a video of her chasing the chipmunk??

It must be great for a cat to get outside. My cats were always house cats, and I felt sorry for them, though they never seemed to mind the couch and windowsill. smile

Cuzzes Lucy & Sookie, I am a cat. Therefore I have a higher level of education than canines. I do appreciate your comment and even if I don’t speak bulldog or canine I undersrtand it completely. Glad you enjoyed my adventure.

Carolyn, I don’t think she knew exactly what it was (the butterfly). No, Rick was busy trying to get a chipmunk jumping from the tree into the bird feeder with the camera and missed the big chase.

Steve, mine too. We started with eBay when she was little just taking her out in the yard while we watched her. She sticks very close to us and the minute she starts to stray we pick her up and take her in. She loves her little outside adventures.

eBay is such a love - I really enjoyed her adventure.
