Toy Time


No, this is not my alter-ego.
It's the little Malaysian mechanical cat who visited us
at work this week. I insisted it looked more like a mechanical
striped pig, and my guess is that the live cat thought it looked like
anything but a fellow feline. And if it had more closely
resembled a mechanical rat/robin/vole, would the live cat
had felt more compelled to attack? One can but wonder.

  1. Oh, T - what a hoot!. I think it looks like a scary, bleached version of a Tasmanian Devil. Never mind it's so small, you'd not want to come upon in a wilderness on a dark night, especially not if it had its whirring little motor going! Happy Sunday to you and Paul.

  2. Thanks, Claire. It was quite hilarious to have this faux fur critter puttering about the workspace. Happy day to you too!

  3. So..I still don't get the eyes. Once I set a rather lifelike stuffed cat beside me, across the room from Dizzy. She stopped in her tracks and stared at it. Surreptitiously I yanked the toy's tail and the critter twitched. Dizzy shot about three feet in the air and fled. Bwa ha ha!
