Socks
A stress ball is a malleable toy, which is squeezed in the
hand and manipulated with the fingers, ostensibly to
relieve stress or muscle tension or to exercise the
muscles of the hand. (info from wiki)
Or if you're in a pinch, a catnip ball works just fine!

Aw what a cute photo of Socks! Animals and children have such an amazing capacity to fully enjoy the present moment! How old is Socks?
ReplyDeleteSocks is 5. :)
DeleteAnd I was wondering what are chobani sticks? ...
ReplyDeleteChobani flips ... I cannot even get it right ... :-)
ReplyDeleteThey are my favorite Greek yogurt snack.

Thank you! Now I know what is this mysteriously sounding snack :-) it looks good!
Deletehaha...yeah, a funny name. You flip the crunchy stuff into the yogurt before you eat. Yum.
DeleteMy Dinky has two balls filled with catnip that she sucks and plays with when she is uptight about something, i.e. when I run out of tuna, chicken and the other things she eats.
ReplyDeleteWhat did you think I was going to say? No need to answer that! Socks looks as if he is enjoying himself.
I thought you were going to say that you ran out of tp! hahaha...
Delete?
Delete!
DeleteAw how sweet . . . :)
ReplyDeletebtw . . . back to TRs. A few years ago I did a funny post about a work colleague who ran out of toilet paper . . lol

ReplyDeleteHe is cute, isn't he? :)
DeleteYour Socks seems to be enjoying his stress ball. :-)
ReplyDeleteOur Toby loves his little birdie ball with a touch of cat nip.
By the way, on your TP~ Kirkland from Costco is great! Absolutely no dust. I dislike those puff rolls. :(
I trust you are having a beautiful day~
Yes, it was a good day...incredibly warm! Can't believe it! It was cooler inside. haha.
DeleteNice shot. Orson had pretty much given up playing with anything long before he was five.
ReplyDeleteHe needs to find his sense of humor!
DeleteI thought he loved fresh catnip....could smell it through your trunk lid.
DeleteMy daughter hates it when I give Kitter catnip. She runs wild. HaHa! Looks like Socks enjoys it, too.
ReplyDeletehaha...even my cool and distinguished cats loose all decorum. lol.
DeleteI love Socks...he reminds me of a cat my daughter once loved, a beautiful tuxedo named Evinrude :)
ReplyDeleteHe's a sweetie !
Hugs,
~Jo
We love him, too...one of our favorites!
DeleteI've got one of those balls sitting right here, stress ball, not catnip!
ReplyDeletehaha...good to know you haven't resorted to the nip!
DeleteOne happy cat! I love Socks' socks.
ReplyDeleteI rarely show his socks....the long ones in the back! haha.
DeleteHi Betsy - I had one for my mother when she had her strokes, as a form of exercise ... but I've often seen the catnip ones for the pussy cats - they love it don't they ... I'm sure you've got catnip growing in the garden? Have a good weekend - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteThe real stress balls...the ones for humans....really work, I hear! I have arthritis in my hands, so
Deletethey wouldn't be fun for me to use, though.
No catnip in the garden. I tried it once and they ate it down to the dirt the first day! lol...
My sister-in-law's cat just lies in theirs! Ok - now I understand why you don't have catnip! Enjoy the weekend ... H
DeleteYep...the poor plant can't even grow here...it gets devoured! haha....
DeleteCat nip sure wins the day
ReplyDeleteCan mellow out any stress on display
After the crazy eyes and frantic attacks
Deletethey do mellow out and seem laid back
in a hazy glow
don't you know. lol...
