This N' That Thursday

Recently I went to see the Acro-Cats Show here in Austin.  I LOVED it.  I enjoyed everything about it.  The lady that trains the cats did a great job, but there were always surprises, cause they're CATS!

This is a groundhog.  He raised the flag.....

Tuna rang a bell.  Tuna was very tempermental.

Sometimes he didn't do what he was supposed to.

She used clicker training to train them.  This was a 8 week kitten that she was fostering.  He was available for adoption.

Sometimes things went awry.

But she always laughed...She said cats will keep you humble....

Jumping thru a hoop.

Again.   

This cat rolled a ball between two poles.

She used cooked chicken, salmon, and beef as rewards.  She had a package on how to clicker train your cat.

She told us about each cat, and their purrsonalities....

This was a tortie.

She just kept going...

And going... 

This pole was about 12 feet high...

All of her cats were rescues...

I was very impressed.  She was a very sweet person.

Each cat had their favorite treat....

I really enjoyed the show....

Very acrobatic cats...

Tuna and the groundhog had a bowling tournament.

Tuna won. 

There was the Rock-Cats.

They played the piano, drums and guitar.

Tuna played the cowbell...

and the tortie played the chimes.

There was a chicken on the tambourine and cymbals...

Drummer

A different drummer.  He was new

and wasn't sure....

Tuna was excellent on the cow-bell


MORE COW-BELL!!!
