I got the normal catnip scented bubbles for Jameson, the dip-and-blow ones.


I've just been having fun playing bubbles with 2 birmans who I'm looking after - the dip and blow ones for children, they've bee going mad jumping on them, splatting them with their paws, trying to catch them and then they pop on their nose LOL, great fun, I'm going to get some from my lot.  ;D

Make sure you hold it dead upright and hold the trigger down for a quite a while, let go of the trigger then hold again etc etc  When that fails, turn it round and point it at your face while you try and look at the mechanism to see why it's not working... that's when it starts to work and churns lots of bubbles smack bang in your face  :evillaugh:

Tried that hun nothing, the liquid just doesn't form over the hole it is supposed too.

Charlie likes having them in the garden, he lets them settle on the grass and then runs round stamping on them

I got the normal catnip scented bubbles for Jameson, the dip-and-blow ones. First he could only smell the catnip and tried whacking it out of my hand, but when I started blowing the bubbles he became a bit wary and only observed them while sitting at a distance.  Will try again in a few days time.
