"The Duffinator" strikes again

Duffy has been scrambling all week.  He puffs up like a little gladiator and
stalks Holly -- then attacks!  Holly will look a bit annoyed and bat at him,
but she really doesn't do much to eliminate the little terror.  She could
simply leap to a high place (like the mantel) if she really wanted to avoid
him.  Duffy will make little "mrryup, myrrup" trilling sounds, shift his
hips, then he's off on the attack.  It's not aggressive, though; it's
clearly playtime.

The Duffinator is on the prowl!

You need a video cam!

Yes, I have all sorts of camcorder scenes, but I don't know how to go to the
next step of putting it in correct format for the Internet -- or how to
place it "on" the Internet, for that matter.  I would love to do this, so
will welcome any suggestions that some of you may have.

I don't have a clue, but maybe someone else here does?

AWW!! He sounds so cute. But it is a good thing he has Holly to
attack; otherwise it might be your ankles! ;-)

He's a little love bug with me.  He loves to be cuddled and will engage in
some vigorous head-butting if I don't pay attention to him when he wants it.

Sounds like my Robin. He is a real lovebug, too. But he loves to play
with Djoser as well as The Feathered Flyer.

Duffy *likes* being upside down, doesn't he?  How cute!  He looks like a
very happy furry owner :)

Yes, he loves that upside-down stance.  He will literally "hang out" from
objects and gently wave his feet in the air.  In fact, I had a carpeted bar
mounted on the top of my computer hutch because I was afraid he would fall
when he did that from the polished wood finish.  This way, he has some
carpeting to grab (and the slightly-raised bar so his hips are a bit lower
than the front of the bar).

LOL!  That describes Duffy. He's blind, but he *always* knows where Holly is
and will often chase her and tease her to play.

Duffy is blind, and his eyes are sort of an opaque blue over the entire
surface.  He has compensated wonderfully and can do almost anything a
sighted cat can do.  He is a joyous, playful, gregorious little guy.
