Hee! So cute! And a great caption! :)

He's very good at appearing cute while simulating evisceration. :D

I wish I could get a video of him kicking himself in the head. He's ticklish on his belly, and when he cleans his tummy he ALWAYS ends up kicking himself in the head because he's tickling himself!

Squee! He's so cuuuuute!!! And he looks so happy with his mousee!!

I was talking about my cats the other day in my office and when I mentioned that one was named 'Widget,' my office mate suggested that she'd love to have a cat named Squeegee. So I had to tell her all about your Squeegee-boy! :)

Hehe... Your little guy just loves to play!

How did he get on with the tougher mouse I sent over? Did he kill that, or is it still going? (I know, wishful. lol)

It really is an excellent name for a cat, and it fits him SO well. I wish I could take videos of all the silly things that he does!
Widget is also an excellent name for a cat - however, all your cats are quite suitably named, in my opinion.

Here's another silly pic for your amusement.

He loved it SO much!
However... he ate in in about 10 minutes, which was a marked improvement from the regular mouses. I've taken to calling him Super Tooth. :D
He goes for the butt and chews and chews until he's made a hole. Then he throws the catnip everywhere, rolls in it, eats the fabric and throws it up later. *grin* He thinks that's a good time!

For some reason, the way Jenna knits the ones she makes seems to repel his toothy advances. He eats the tails off of them immediately, but he's not been able to put a hole in one yet. I don't get it, but who can explain cats?

Holy crap! he's quite the chomper! lol. Mani chews too.... He even chews the noses off the knitty ones! lol.

Chewy cats are damned expensive when it comes to toys. :p

I think i just found the pattern for the mouse your kitty is playing with. I want to send all my cat friends a mouse, and since it looks like Squeegee is always in need of more mice, could you please e-mail me a mailing address for you?

It probably won't be the very same pattern, since I created my own. :) When knitting for Squeege, be sure to use two strands of yarn, and his favorite color is red. :)

I'm looking forward to hearing how Mani does with teh crochet fishees since I think they're a bit stronger than the mousees.

Bwahahahahaha!!! *That* is fantastic!!!!

Those are very good things to know. Thanks for the tips!
