Spicoli: “Looks like those dudes raided Liberace’s collection of sports memorabilia.”
Mr. Nibbles: “I didn’t know you Hipsters were interested in football.”
Charlee: “Well we don’t really know too much about it, but a lot of people said I should be in the Super Bowl because of my ball-catching skills so we thought we should find out more.”
Chaplin: “I could catch the ball if I wanted to. I just choose not to because it’s undignified.”
Mr. Nibbles: “Are you sure you would want to play football, Charlee? It’s a rough game, and all the other players are a lot bigger than you.”
Charlee: “Are they? I haven’t seen any players yet, just all kinds of shiny toys I could knock over, like that blue glass thing. And those funny snail shells. Anyway I’m pretty fast, and I have claws.”
Spicoli: “Undignified? Dude, you chase moths and eat cobwebs.”
Chaplin: “Somebody has to do the housework around here.”
Mr. Nibbles: “I don’t think they would let you use your claws. You’d probably get kicked out for that.”
Charlee: “I thought you said it was a rough game. What kind of rough game is it where they don’t let you use your claws?”
Spicoli: “Isn’t housework something that your ‘human servants’ are supposed to do?”
Chaplin: “Supposed to.”
Mr. Nibbles: “Well, I don’t like to discourage anyone from following their dream, so if you really want to give this a try, we can start by practicing with a football.”
Charlee: “Okay!”
Spicoli: “Dude, you’re basically saying that you help your humans out around the house and for a cat that’s about as undignified as it gets. Just admit that you like chasing moths and eating cobwebs. Nobody is going to judge you for
that.”
Chaplin: “Fine. I like to chase moths and eat cobwebs.”
Vermin: “HISSS! Weirdo!”
Later …
Charlee: “What’s this thing?”
Mr. Nibbles: “It’s a football.”
Charlee: “Don’t you have one that’s smaller? And maybe made of soft foam?”

Sports are stupid. Footballs are weird. Housework is annoying. Moths and cobwebs sound delicious!!

Thanks for visting my blog. The pain makes me feel older than my mom (who is 86 and still going strong–cooking, baking, cleaning, shopping….. ). We got 2-3 inches today but it’s warmer…. and it’s supposed to snow 3-8 inches starting Monday evening into Tuesday! It’s okay when I don’t want to go anywhere. The Hubby has 4-wheel drive in his pickup and hasn’t gotten stuck ever… but we tend to get a couple of big drifts on our gravel road (which is only half a mile from the highway). I enjoy your blog very much. LOVE that you named your kitties Charle and Chaplin.. I should stop now!!!

Apparently Daisy, too, has decided that catching things is undignified. Although trying to catch them and missing them is pretty undignified too, in my humble, catching-abled opinion…. Of course, as hipster kitties, you make your own rules and don’t have to abide by societal norms – so just keep doing what you’re doing, even if that includes eating moths and stuff! (For what it’s worth, Lucy-Fur helps Mom with laundry – anything that doesn’t end up in the laundry basket gets destroyed by Lucy-Fur. Apparently that is helping….)

We think starting with a smaller nerf ball might be a good idea too Charlee….or maybe you should try the European type football…they may let you use your claws in that game!
Good Luck!

Thanks for the share. We hope you enjoyed the football game. We know kitty football would allow claws to be used. Hope you are having a wonderful day. Now, only if that football was kitty play size.
