Hi everyone! I know there are a lot of good mouse hunters out there so I thought I would tell you about a contest that VictorPest is having, there are 3 prizes and the top one is $500- think of all the catnip you could buy with that. All you need to do is submit a 15-20 second video of your cat mouse hunting , entries are open until September 15th. Click here to go to the entry form. This is our entry:
Tomorrow we are joining a September Challenge with a question a day about our teen years, it sounds like fun. Here is the link if you want to check it out.
Don’t forget that Winnie’s Wish still has an auction running with all kinds of great items.
What’s hunting? My food appears several time a day, warmed to the perfect temperature in a fluffy pile on a plate.
You are a lucky kitty. Do you ever pretend to hunt with a toy mouse- that counts π
You are so much fun! You are also a warm, caring, sharing person. Thank you. We need more like you. Hugs.
Thank you, you are too sweet. XO
Astrid is our resident mouser, and we actually have lots of photos with her and mouse, but no video. Phooey! XOCK, Lilly Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
The contest is open until Sept. 16th so you have time π
Wow, look at you go! Get that mouse!
Our Gracie is a pretty good mouser, too. We’ll have to see about trying to capture her skills on video.
I hope you can film her π
I actually DO have a video of me mouse hunting – a REAL mouse! Except my human says it looks more like I’m making friends with it. Well. Maybe I’ll submit it anyway.
You should submit it, that would be cute π
Looks like another great mouser to become famous! Maybe you’ll be invited to 10 Downing Street to meet England’s official mouser! Mom read the questions and she’s going to pawticipate on her art blog!! Thanks for the link to a new and fun challenge!
That is great that you are going to participate π
We’ve never ever caught a live mouse but we whap our toy mouses about!
Toy mouses count π
I’ve never caught a real mouse (thankfully we’ve never had one in the house!) but I used to be very good at playing with my toy mousies…….that’s a cool contest though!
Hugs, Sammy
Toy mousies count π
Mr. Cat loves to chase his favorite catnip mousie. However I’m terrible shooting videos
That is too bad, you should at least try.
What a fun contest! Thank you for letting us know about this! I don’t know what we’d do without friends like you to keep us on track with such fun things like this.
And we love Winnie’s Wish auction. Such great items, and for such a great cause! We’ve nabbed some great items items (we love our kitty Troll bead!), and are always checking back to see what wonderful new items there are. Thank you for bringing awareness to it!
That is sweet of you to help the auction π I hope you enter the contest.
I am a very good mouser and my mum has videos of me catching them. Because I live in the UK, that will rule me out of the competition.
I am not sure if it is just US residents, you are top mouser in the world π XO
The ‘O’ cats are great hunters; the inside kitties not so much. Don’t think I want to make a video of Patty O’Malley making a snack in my backyard from some poor creature…yuck!
Toy mousies count π
How fun. Too cute too.
Have a purrfect day. My best to your wonderful mom. βΊ
Thank you π Hope you had a great day too.
I love my mousies! Momma says they’re not REAL mice … but I have my doubts. What does she know about mice? ~Bear Cat
I am sure they are real π
That sounds like a fun contest. I need to convince my boys to show some hunting skills when I’m recording π
I bet they would do it π
Sounds like a cool contest!
I hope you enter.
So far our house is mouse free so we must be good!
I guess you are π Same here.
yeah… we really aren’t good mousers here. At all. One time we did have a vermin in the house and just stared at it. Mom has never let us live that down. She ended up sweeping it out of the front door with a broom. and the plugged up its mouse hole.
That is too funny π
Our house is mouse free; but it would be fun to watch all the entries.
That is great π

I bet you were great Boomer π
[…] The first post comes from 15 and Meowing…..“Are You A Good Mouser?” […]
Georgie and Sly Pie would be great mousers. Being ground dwellers, they don’t care much for Da Bird but any mouse toy brings out their excellent mouser skills π
You will have to record them π
Would love to enter but it’s US residents only. Maybe next time they’ll include us kitties north of the border π
Sorry, I didn’t realize that π
Aaaaaaaw Dat’s a cute video. You should see Raena play with dat toy. She’s not sure what she’s ‘posed to do. MOL We’ll have to check out da contest tho’, we could use some green papers.
Luv ya’
Dezi and Raena
I bet Raena looks adorable playing. Good luck if you enter π
Do you think chasing frogs would count? They’re out playing in the rain & Purrseidon wants to join them… Mr. M hasn’t been seen since breakfast, but I’m confident he will appear for dinner.
I am sure it would count π
That sounds like a fun contest!
Miss Mudpie should enter.
We definitely think you should win that contest! Ivan’s the best (toy) mouser in our clan but he has a habit of whapping it under the stove. If Elliott gets to play with it, he brings it to Mom as a present.
Do toy mousies count?
If they do I’m super at mousing…
Noodle and crew
Yes, that counts π
This is wonderful! I hope you win. You sure deserve it. XO
Thank you XO
Thanks for the shout out, Ellen. π I am looking forward to this challenge. I am hoping that it sparks lots of memories for people and some smiles along the way, too.
The mousing contest is a neat idea. I’ve never seen a mouse like in that video before. Good luck!
Have a blessed day. π
The mouse in the video is a toy we won on another blog π I am looking forward to your challenge.
It looks like a pretty cool toy. π
I’m looking forward to your posts in the challenge, too. Have a wonderful week!
My computer won’t let me see your mouser videoo, but i’ll bet you are fabulous at it! The cats here don’t get much chance to chase mice, but they love to chase bugs that get in the house.
It was just a toy mouse π
You almost got that mousie!
He tries π
Well, I brought 5 mousies up to the deck in one day, so I guess that it pretty good. But I cant imagine how TBT would get video of that. Beins are so loud and stompy that no mousies would stay aboveground if they were close. And it did take several hours! ~ MARLEY
I bet you would win too if there was some way to get it recorded- great work!
Whoa! those are a lot of clams! I’m gonna have to start hunting.
Good luck CK!
The kitty trying to catch the mechanical mouse is cute. It is very interesting to watch a cat kill a snake, too. Somehow the cat hypnotizes the snake and the snake does not know what got him.
I have never seen that, all my cats are inside. I don’t even allow fake snakes, they would scare me.
Hmmm, we seem to have gotten out of the habit of mouse games of late, enjoying wand toys and that elusive red dot a bit more…and meowmy is oh so klutzy with video recordings, she has nevfur even posted one…but it does look like a fun contest! Thanks for sharing that with us all:)
That red dot is tricky π They need a contest for that.
What a cutie! The herd here is like nope…too much work. lol
Thank you π
