Kitten Miri loves to play in her new mouse house, but when Hana joins in, the fun really begins. Also, Maru appears briefly so his name can appear in the title.
Bonus! Maru demonstrates the forward box roll! Can Miri duplicate this impressive skill?

I wonder what Miri is thinking when she’s going after her tail. I’m pretty sure it was an accident but that was an impressive roll.
Shopping for a mouse-shaped cardboard scratcher NOW.
Forward roll: I think Miri’s got it. Maru is a very good teacher.
Maru is an excellent teacher >:3 and Miri is a quick learner
Miri might be the most kittenish kitten I’ve ever seen – boundless curiosity and energy.
Helps that she lives in a house that’s basically designed for cat play…
It’s so funny to see the size difference between Maru and Miri when they are side by side, it’s hard to remember that Maru was this small once.
Also compare how much (or little) they fill the plastic box.
Maru has so much padding, I think that’s why he rarely flinches when kittens jump all over him. He doesn’t feel a thing!
One of my fav Maru videos from years ago with the marvelous mouse-shaped cat scratcher:
My fave one with the mouse house is this one XD
Yes, Maru’s face! 😂
This one needs a soundtrack.
The Dramatic Gopher one would be perfect.
Exactly!
Glorious!
Thank you!
Andrew, you always come through for us.
That mouse looks more like a fish to me with its gaping maw. I love Maru getting sucked into it – and that look on his face! What did Hana do to elicit such shocked surprise???
Is it just me? Why hasn’t the Spare Ears post that I got in an email appeared on the site?
It is strange that we don’t have a post today, I hope Mike is OK.
I got the email, and went to the post from there but there was no comment box. Went to the home page and it wasn’t there. I assume it was a scheduled post and something went wrong. It’s back now.
Hello, I’m fine. The bunny post didn’t appear at the top of the page this morning because I didn’t notice the publish date was set for several days in the past. I’ve changed the date and the post should be more visible now.
Thank you for the explanation, what a relief!
Whew!
All Teh Qte and Time Travel, Too!
I was wondering the same thing. Hope all is well with Mike.
Dear Maru,
Just a suggestion, but, when doing your rolls in that container, you may want to consider NOT ending up with your delicate settings at the front of the box. As long as Miri is in her cute maniac stage and attacking everything she sees, keep your back end to the box’s back end. Your tail is phenomenal and attack worthy for any kitten, but unfortunately, so is what it covers.
