WAFFLES: Hey Boss! What's so funny? Why's Glogirly giggling?
KATIE: She must have her iPhone out again. Haven't you noticed her trying to get us on video every morning for the last six months? She thinks we're playing patty cake or something.
WAFFLES: Patty cake? Does Patty taste like –
KATIE: Not that kind of cake, Waffles. C'mon. Let's give her the video she wants. Trust me, going forward it will really speed up breakfast service around here.

About Today's Video
Glogirly has been trying for MONTHS to get this video. What you're watching is our pre-breakfast dance number. Every morning when Glogirly comes down to the kitchen, Waffles and Katie start their patty cake dance while they wait for their meal service.
It used to be a very heated *dance* with extremely spirited vocalizations. A hiss and a growl were not uncommon. Flattened ears could be seen on both sides. But one day that all changed. All of a sudden these morning tussles turned into something that actually resembled play. Could it be? Could two rival cats actually keep their claws retracted and join in a playful game of patty cake?
For the past few months, Glogirly has brought her iPhone down to the kitchen with her in hopes of capturing the patty cake dance on video. And every morning when she's aimed the phone at Katie and Waffles, they've immediately stopped what they were doing. Paws down and frozen in their tracks. Until today. Glogirly was a silent as a mouse, turned the volume down on her phone and held her breath. SUCCESS!!!
We hope you enjoy the video! It takes only 48 seconds to watch, but took over 6 months to make.
Silly Katie and Waffles. Soon they'll be licking one another - or do they?
ReplyDeleteReal cute video!
ReplyDeleteKatie is DEFINITELY in charge there!!!!! Well done that videographer!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my Ceiling Cat, that's an award winner!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Binga and Sparkle used to do that in the morning - that's how my human was able to put together the boxing match video a few years ago. When I came to live here, Binga tried doing that to me and I had NO idea what she was up to! Eventually I caught on, so now we do that before breakfast pretty often... except with us, it is definitely playing. With Sparkle, you could never be too sure.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great video and we started the day with a smile on our faces. Just brilliant.
ReplyDeleteLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx

ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable video!!! They really are enjoying themselves!!

Adorable! Pierre and Newton do that sometimes. Ashton just whacks the offender with a left hook and carries on with whatever she's doing. That left hook is the holy grail of photos around here, too.
ReplyDeleteLove those white paws... And glad to see there's no orange fur flying!

We love how Katie and Waffles dance. ;)
ReplyDeleteNow that's too funny. For several months Mr. Chivers used to paw Samantha's head while mom was serving breakfast. Felines are fabulously funny. Now I (Greyson) on the other hand calmly wait because mom always gives me 2-3 treats while the others are eating. MOL
ReplyDeleteOn my cat! ! That is great. I love it. They are so gentle now too. Hats off to Glogirly for her patience
ReplyDelete,
Glogirly, that was worth the wait!
ReplyDeleteMOL! Looks like you two are play fighting, and it made the Mom laugh. She thinks it's "cute" the way Waffles gently smacks Katie's head.
ReplyDeleteLook at that floor down to the sub floor. Is the other floor already in and new or is it what wasn't damaged? Cause if it's new--wow! You are close to having everything done! YEAH!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Tucker and Sadie used to have what I called their "dinner dance." Sadie would rub against Tucker's face and body, and he would get irritated and meow and/or hiss. Repeat, repeat. Unfortunately, since Tucker's been gone, she no longer does it with anyone else.
ReplyDeleteWhy do kitties do that?! I tried and tried yesterday to get a pic of Samantha and every time I had the iPad up she would look away. IPad down, she looks at me, iPad up at her, she looks away. And so on and so on. Glogirly gets it!
ReplyDeleteKatie is starting to have fun with you Waffles! That's great!
That's adorable! I sure wish we could know what they are thinking.
ReplyDeleteGreat video ! It made us smile ! Purrs
ReplyDeletePawesome! You guys are too cute stopping like that.
ReplyDeletePawesome! You guys are too cute stopping like that.
ReplyDeleteDance, cats, dance! *G* Thank you for not giving up, Glogirly. This was definitely worth it.
ReplyDeleteKatie I think you gave left AND right jabs at the same time. YOU definitely win paws down. MOL
ReplyDeleteI know you are so glad you caught this on video!
We do that to mom all the time when she gets the camera out. Glogirly is very lucky she finally got this great video of you two!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to your mom for finally getting your dance on video! Our mom can completely relate when trying to get our artsy brother Quint on film while painting. Just.Won't.Cooperate!
ReplyDeleteIt was worth the wait and all the effort! That video is great!
ReplyDeleteIt's so nice to see the two of you having fun together!
ReplyDeleteGreat video! Definitely worth the time :) I'm glad to see these two playing together. I guess, if you can't beat 'em, play Patty Cake with 'em. MOL

OMC, Katie and Waffles you two are so much fun! Next thing you know you'll be cuddled up napping. :p
ReplyDeleteSasha, Sami, & Saku
Looks more like sparring leading up to a fight to me. Derby and I used to do that, then we would wrassle each other good.
ReplyDeleteDon't you love it when you are able to FINALLY catch something? :) and look at Katie go!! you must be so proud of her.
ReplyDeleteFleurp and Skippy dance like that before meals too..
That is so funny! A kitty cat slap fight!
ReplyDeleteOh, what fun! Purrfect dance partners, too!
ReplyDeleteBefore breakfast and lunch, Mauricio and Calista Jo start with smacky paws, which escalates to neck biting and then all out knock down wrestling. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
