Catstacked: Mud
Catstacker: Phil
Whatstacked: Assorted items
This morning we have a great catstacking video courtesy of Phil and his amazing catstackathlete Mud. Mud looks he just woke up. Or maybe he just doesn’t like being laughed at. Robert Heinlein, in his book The Door Into Summer had something to say about laughing at cats:
“You do have to learn how to behave with cats. You must never laugh at them.”
“What? Forevermore, why?”
“Not because they aren’t funny; they’re extremely comical. But they have no sense of humor and it offends them.”
But really, isn’t part of the fun of catstacking getting to play a joke on your cat and laugh at it (forevermore)? Afterall, they play enough jokes on us…
Note: If you’ve got a video to share, copy the link into the message field on the submit page. I think that will work!
Catstacked: Cleo
Catstackers: April and David
Whatstacked: 10 stuffed toys
Today Cleo is back with his second catstack in his neverending quest to achieve maximum catstackery. A bevy of stuffed friends are helping him on his way! Included in the pile are 7 dog toys and 3 cat toys (see if you can separate them for bonus points), and of course, Cleo, whose peaceful lounging continues uninterrupted. Thanks April and David for helping Cleo realize his life-long dream.
Catstacked: Smalls
Catstacker: Angelie
Whatstacked: Chicken Cup ‘O Noodles
Catstacker Angelie is back with her second stack on her second cat, Smalls. Maybe her cats are having a stack-off? Angelie says that Smalls will do almost anything for chicken, and that apparently involves letting his dignity slide a little bit. This photo looks like it might be an action stack; maybe Miles woke up, got hungry and was on his way to check out that big pile of food on the bed? Thanks, Angelie and Smalls!
Catstacked: Miles
Catstacker: Angelie
Whatstacked: Misc. debris
I’m going to go ahead and say it: this is my favorite catstack so far and it really made me laugh. Miles is just laying there, seemingly full of his latest feast, oblivious to all around him. The sticks and leaves have been added haphazardly in such a way that they look as if they could have just as easily blown onto Miles during a month-long nap. Whichever the case, Miles won’t care when he wakes up. At all. Thanks, Angelie and Miles!
Samson is back this morning with a very impressive stack of 9 rolls of toilet paper! Just last week Samson was stacking baby socks, but looks at him now. He’s really living up to his moniker. Boomer insisted that I look up Samson on Wikipedia, and this is what it says, “Samson is a Herculean cat, who is granted tremendous strength by God to combat his enemies and perform heroic feats unachievable by ordinary cats, such as stacking toilet paper upon himself.” Tami says that Samson “could have gone for more but it was all we had in the house!” Nice work on a difficult stack, Tami and Samson.
Update: Our auxiliary admin assures us that the Catstacker stickers are at the printers and will be in soon on their way!
Don’t let that adorable face fool you. Butters the Cat is capable of massive catstacks. In this case, he easily handles 30 DVDs and looks smugly ready for more. Thad, Butters’ owner says that Butters enjoys watching movies, he just never thought he’d be wearing them! We can only guess which movie is his favorite out of this bunch. Flushed Away perhaps? Thanks Thad and Butters!
Boomer puts up with a lot, to say the least. He’s got to work off his Fancy Feast tab somehow though, and he’s certainly not useful in any other capacity (unless you count killing birds, waking us up in the middle of the night and barfing at random intervals). For this catstack he gets Barbie-piled when he least suspects it. Or maybe when he most suspects it, but is resigned enough to try and ignore it.
Oh, and he insisted on putting your favorite song on this video. He said you would thank him for the rest of the day. So, you’re welcome.
Catstacked: Siggy
Catstacker: Ally and Phil
Whatstacked: Business cards
This morning we have Siggy. Siggy is being a very useful cat. By laying immobile, making grumpy faces and covering himself with business cards, he has become the first ever business card holder cat. Siggy’s stackers lament, “If only we could get Siggy to follow us around we would never be lost for a phone number or email address.” Thanks, Ally and Phil!
Catstacked: Samson
Catstacker: Tami
Whatstacked: A dozen pairs of baby socks
Samson has chosen baby socks for his first foray into catstacking! He does not appear to be phased at all by his new skills. Thank you to Tami and Samson for making this great stack possible. If the socks are any indictation maybe there will be a new stacker in the family soon?
Hey Catstackers! Very soon we’ll be mailing out a nice little treat for those of you that submit your catstacking photos. Stack your cat to receive your very own Catstackers.com sticker as well as an autographed photograph of Boomer pulling off a never-before-seen catstack! I know. Awesome, right? Your cat is going to be really excited about that. All you have to do is fill in the address field on the submit page when you submit your image and we’ll get that stuff out to you as soon as it’s ready.
For those nice folks that have already sent in a catstack, you are also eligible for a sticker and photo if you like. You can send us another message through the submit form, or maybe we’ll try and get ahold of you via email when the day arrives. Sorry for the extra work. We’re just making this up as we go along, you know.
