I always find it helpful to stand on a footstool when I want to see something, too. My footstool doesn't try to bite me, though (my, what big teef you have, Mr. Bounce!)... Have to say that Rikki as victor looked more like "Was it something I said? Don't go away mad!" than "I am the fiercest cat in all the land!"... Too funny, Teho!!!
Aw, I-L-E, Older Cats always ditch any spot that gets usurped by a Mere Kitter. It's suddenly beneath their dignity to have anything to do with it as long as there's a Younger Baby Kitten there.
Although, that always seems to go away as soon as the aforementioned YBK leaves. :>)
I loves me a quasi-meerkat (note footie holding Rikki up).
I see MR. Bounce as a sort of Foghorn Leghorn character here. He doesn't seem to mind when Rikki is standing on his back, he's all "Kids...tcho." But when he gets all up in his face then there's definitely a "Boy! You bother me, boy," moment.
Hahahaha--I love how kittens always rear up on their hind legs and
raise both paws for battle--a kind of combo
I-surrender-oh-no-let-me-hit-you gesture. And I love the final lil chomp Rikki takes at the disappearing Mr. Bounce.
I'm SSOOOO glad you caught that on video. Poor Bounce, what patience.
Teej, you nailed it with the Foghorn Leghorn ref! I also agree with lurkertype that Bounce was tolerating the Rikkster until he realized that Teho was taping & would prolly post the evidence on the Innerwebs....
Ahem, I am sure I speak for, well myself at least, that while not a certified expert like yourself; I feel that this video and the previous one as well both qualify and pass with flying colors the supremely high standards of CO. ;-)
If I remember correctly Rikki pretty much climbed all over his litter mates when they were all new beebehs. So it appears he thinks climbing atop a sibling is normal everyday behavior! Bounce is an awfully good boy. No hissing or growling or nuffin. Just a little warning swat.... VERY cute!
I assume Spot is havin' none of this fun and frivolity?

I'd call that a safe assumption. She even sees Rikki and it's grrrrrRRRRRrrRrrrrroowwwwwwwwwww... owwwwwwwww... wwl... (repeat until climbing all the way up to her refuge on top of the kitchen cabinets)
You gotta go to the "photos" link under the Resident Creatures heading, after you click on the Resident Creatures tag. Otherwise, all you see are the "Posts" and I've never made whole posts about Spot (or probably even Bounce).
Hmmmm.....Mlle. Spotte la Satisfactairee....where ees zees spotte weeth wheech you name her? I only see zee tine-ee chatte noire of ze Most Disapprovings!
Stheriously, she closely resembles the WeeGee, who is Five Lbs. Of Feline Fury and Famous Punisher of Pushy Kitterns.
Black Cats rooooooooooooooooooooole. And don't you fer-git it!!!!
Yes yes, but what you don't see is Spot's spot. She has a white smudge on her back that looks like someone dropped a paintbrush on her from stepladder height.
Actually I was jest heading to bed when I realized that I really hate the weekends. Why? Cause I hafta spend my time working outside in the YARD instead of inside. Now I gotta spend most of monday at work catching up on all I've missed on CO/VOX and now Cute Talk or whatchever we're calling it now.
Er I mean I'm going to be working on monday...yeah. RIght.

I'm surprised Mr. B let Rikki have that prime window spot so easily. Poor Mr. B usurped by the younger baby kitty.

Bounce, your windowsill has been usurped.
And I love the final lil chomp Rikki takes at the disappearing Mr. Bounce.

(Ecktewelly, Yitzy says "bbrrrrreeet? Mrrow?" but you get the drift, right? )
I assume Spot is havin' none of this fun and frivolity?
I mean, if you came across this on teh Intarwebs and it wasn't yours, you'd LOL and think it was CO-worthy, right?
It can be a special bonus post.
(I even examined the "Resident Creatures" tag but, alas, no satisfaction there!)
She's lovely, the twin sister of my guy, and seems eminently post-worthy!
