Jingle Balls, Part 1

I interrupt my blog coma to post about the great package I received today from my Jingle Ball swap pal!

The kitty inspectors come to check it out:

Yowza! That's one big ball!

It's as big as mah head

And the hairy ball was a little scary:

We opened that one first and inside were lots of fun creepy crawlies including a minature rat!

And for the rest.....stay tuned! I love the sound the jingle ball makes and how cute it is that I can't bare to unravel it just yet. I'm saving it for tomorrow when I get home from work.
