Every so often, or at least once a day (whichever comes first), Quint sneaks into Maxx’s room to exercise his kitten energy and antagonize tease “play” with his older brother. We all know how much Maxx likes to “play,” which would be with about the same amount of enthusiasm he’d have mowing the lawn. With a push mower.

The fun always begins the same. Unsuspecting Maxx, lying on the bench at the end of the bed footboard on his favorite ivory mattelasse, is suddenly presented with a paw and a pink nose peeking from the gap. Everything would be just swell if it ended there…but it never does.

A few more pokes of paw and nose, Quint’s determined to rile up his brother…

…just enough to get a response. In this case, Maxx pokes back with a marshmallow paw and without the usual growl, whap and flashing teeth. Whew! Quint, we really thought you had him going there for a second!
Love the little paw popping out..Have a wonderful Monday xx00xx

Instigator. In our house, when mama is looking the instigator is Buster, but when she’s not it’s Emma.
Did you wrassle after that?

Looks like Quint has picked an excellent barrier to protect himself from the whap. Purrs and hugs from the kitties at The Cat on My Head, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Josette
Quint you are such a tease!!!
Hehe, it’s funny how he is still hiding behind the safety of the board.
FaRADaY: *whispers* Quint! Isn’t it just THE BEST FUN EVER to get them all riled up! Allie has the WORST growl – she sounds like Marge Simpson! MOL!!! oops, mommy’s coming…..
OMC, Quint’s little nose and paws poking through are sooooo cute! If that doesn’t get Maxx to play, nothing will.
Quint, I think this sounds like a fun game! Binga does not agree with me.
Maxx, you’re a good big brother for not smacking Quint.
Playing pawsies.
Love the paw coming through picture x
We have a lot of the sneaky paws on our table. The cat on top must take the play from beneath. Great fun
