    Cybil’s joy resides in her nihilism & insanity claws

    Madcat on the loose.

    If Lio takes Cybil to court, she can plea the insanity claws.

    Or perhaps that is xactly what Cybil wanted ….. the spirit is in whatever makes the receiver happy …… so cheer up, Lio!

    Yup, my cats are never interested in the contents of a box - - only the box, ribbon and wrap. So easy to shop for them.

    Yay Cybil! She’s the best. She definitely has Simons Cat moments - especially when she’s on alarm clock duty. ……..Oddly enough she also looks like Fizzgig at times.

    It looks to me like there’s catnip inside…

    They don’t make em like they use to. I hope Lio kept his receipt. A lot of toys don’t last more than a day.

    And the box is usually more fun, and for longer, than the contents.

    I figured it was a box of boxes, with layers of catnip between!

    Big cats open packages that way too. I think catnip was involved.

    We used to wrap our kitty’s presents for Christmas, and they opened them the same way. It was usually a catnip toy. Only rarely did the toy survive the day, but we had happy cats.

    Yes, the doggies got their presents, too. They loved unwrapping them. Sometimes they enjoyed playing with the wrapping paper more than the contents.

    Magnamax, one of the physical laws of C-space (cartoon space) is that at times of frantic high speed motion body parts may appear simultaneously in more than one place (Observe almost any cartoon fight, for example).

    If you look really close you can see a gnome’s hat, I think it must have been one of the gnomes that Cybil picked up back quite some time ago. By the way love it; also I think the box might have been made of cat nip, or at least cocaine just like these guys did: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,524537,00.html

    Cybil strangely resembles my own cat here. There must have been cat nip or something in there…I hope.
