Havin' a Whale of a Time.....

As the kittens are now nearly 5 months old I thought it was time for their first 'mind blowing experience' so I made them some cat nip toys:

knitted catnip whales
Cat nip whales


Pattern: Whale Cat toy
Yarn: Oddments of acrylic which have now returned to the charity bag
Needles: Whatever I needed to obtain a tight gauge.

Lyra: mmmmmmm..........


Then the party moved to the kitchen:

cats playing with catnip toys
where Pam & Lyra demonstrated BIG CAT little cat

Ginny on the other hand isn't quite ready for this huge leap from cute kitten to drugged cat & was just happy to say hi!
