Way cheaper than a Wii...

Today, instead of cleaning our basement playroom I ended up watching my children giggle for hours as they peacefully played together with our kitten.




No kitten was harmed in the making of this video. It was given a dozen chances to JUMP out and it willingly jumped back in. And yes. It came from the humane society.

That is WAY better than a Wii and my kids would gladly trade theirs for a kitten. (Not. Gonna. Happen.)

Very funny!!

Jessica said...

Haha! I like how the cat just sits there & lets them pull out the toys.

Seems like they were having a GREAT time! I love Fifi's laugh! Adorable!

Natalie Jane said...

Cute! But I still don't want one.

Kitty. Not child. I have a child.

Great vid, Darlin'.

Unknown said...

Haha...my girls started laughing and squealing along without even watching the vid and now won't stop...ahhhh! Thanks A LOT, missy ;)

Kids' laughter has to be my favorite sounds. We love playing like that with our cat too. Great vid!

Rhea said...

Tod is the best kitty ever! What a cutie!!

I can't believe that video got me. I think when we capture enemies of war that want to do harm to America they should be forced to watch videos like this. For hours... until their hearts melt, and they never want to harm anyone again. The laughter of children will save us all.

So freaking cute.

So cute!

Isobel just made us watch this a bunch of times and wants a kitty. *shakes fist*

How cute are those kids of yours!?

That is perfect. Tod suits your family well!

And, I love that the voice of OHdaddy graced my computer...sounds like he was the only one cleaning!

Kids playing together peacefully is definitely a GOOD thing.

That is my favorite thing about kids and pets. I love how much fun and excitement they bring to the children!

And then they get bored and go back to fighting. Wait--that's my kids.

Maura said...

Adorable! The first time the little paw poked out of there I started laughing. :-)

TheScrappyMama said...

They are just too precious!

Kids laughter is a cure all for me.

Maggie May said...

Maureen said...

You are INSANE. But kittens are definitely hysterical. Love the giggles!

Kellan said...

I could listen to that giggling all night - how sweet are they, your children??!!! Kittens love little children and little children love kittens - there is nothing more perfectly loveable!

Take care, P - Kellan

that's the cutest thing I've ever seen. well, maybe it comes 2nd to Fifi wearing a full blown princess outfit over her clothes.

Unknown said...

lol...kittens can be a huge source of fun...but I'm NOT sure they are cheaper...in the long run...LOL.

I remember ours love paper bags...lol...aw the memories.

tiarastantrums said...

oh those giggles! too cute!!

Miss Lisa said...

Kitty is a great sport :)

Hailey said...

I think we need to see/hear more of OHdaddy.
How long did your kids sit like that and play like that? If it was for more than 15 minutes, we might have to invest in a kitten.

Darci White said...

too cute! love your little one giggling away!

Natalie said...

HA! Love the little paw jumping out! I love cats and your kiddos look like they are having so much fun with their new pet!

Val said...

That's just too cute. It's the little things that make children happy, sometimes.
I love how Fifi has a fluffy princess dress on.

Kat said...

That is so cute! If only I weren't allergic to cats. :(

Stephanie said...

What a beautiful, beautiful sound!

mpotter said...

absolutely adorable.
and your kitty looks just like (from what i can see) one of mine- Yiminy.
and yiminy likes boxes and bags, too. he woulda totally done the same thing.

how FUN.

Children's laughter is the best medicine ever. Thanks for sharing!

This ALMOST makes me want to go out and get a kitten for my kids. Almost.

Unknown said...

I just love the title of this post! And of course the video just makes you smile from ear to ear! : )

the mama bird diaries said...

Very sweet! Precious.

WackyGrandma said...

Gee, I wonder how much fun they would have with my 11 puppies??

Jaina said...

Those are the best toys. Cardboard boxes, and now, apparently, kittens in suitcases. Who'd have guessed. :)
