"Captain of the Mountain" -Episode 10 Finds Slider Skiing Kirkwood

Today, we bring the story of Slider as he goes on his long awaited ski adventure.  The first time Sean told me he actually skis with Slider, I was blown away.  A cat skiing?  No way.  As you will see with today’s video - Way!  We also applaud Kirkwood Ski Resort in Lake Tahoe for allowing pets to accompany their owners on ski adventures.

I had hounded Sean for months to get some footage of him and Slider conquering the slopes.  He pointed out to have a cat attached to your back and man a video camera is a little difficult.  His inventive self came up with a plan though.  It’s so cool!

As you may have determined, Slider Cat Adventures slows down in the spring with video uploads.  That doesn’t mean Slider isn’t having awesome adventures.  It simply means the video editor (me) is “busier than all get out” as we say in the South.

Sean and Slider will continue to collect great footage all summer long.  We will endeavor to have a video at least once a month for you until we get back to full weekly productions in October.

Until next time, we hope you enjoy Episode 10, “Captain of the Mountain”.

Have a meowvelous summer!

Slider Gets Down In A Cave In Episode 9

Slider is no stranger to curiosity.  He is a cat, you know!  There’s nothing like a gaping hole in a rock to pique his interest.  This episode has Slider spelunking which is another word meaning to explore caves. 

There won't be an episode next week (it's Merlefest time and I'll be enjoying awesome music all weekend long!).  BUT, Sean has provided some killer ski footage with him and Slider.  I was so excited to find it in my inbox.  That will be a fun story to put together.

Hope you've found us on Face Book and have subscribed to us on YouTube.  Please enjoy today's adventure!
Have a great week!

Slider Says "It's Show Time!"

Slider loves the adventure of a cat show. He gets to meet a lot of neat folks and other kitties, too.

It is a testament to Slider’s wonderful ragdoll nature that he is so docile and sweet for the judges.  And why he is a Supreme Grand Champion (in the Alter Class) of The International Cat Association (TICA).  You can even see in the video how the judges seem to melt from his cuteness!

By all means, share Slider Cat Adventures with your friends and family.  Also, you can find Slider on FaceBook at Slider Ragdoll.  He would love to be your friend.

"Slider's Sunsets" Highlights Gorgeous Vistas For Episode 6

A picture is worth a thousand words, so for Episode 6 of Slider Cat Adventures, we decided to simply let the gorgeous Lake Tahoe sunsets and Slider’s adorable face tell the story.  Slider and Pet-Sean take in sunrises and sunsets from the beach and from the tops of the mountains.  What a life in Lake Tahoe!

Like sunsets everywhere, your colors vary from day to day - and from weather system to weather system.  Add the gorgeous blue lake and frosted mountains of Lake Tahoe to awesome skies and you will have a feast for the eyes.  Link to Episode 6 - "Slider's Sunsets".

If you don’t regularly take the time to marvel at a sunrise or sunset, you should.  It’s good for the soul! 

Today is a two for Tuesday (er, Sunday J), as it’s Melissa’s birthday!  Can you tell March is a busy month for Slider Cat Adventures?  We threw in an extra birthday video for good measure.   Link to Happy Birthday, Melissa!

Sibling Rivalry Is Alive and Well In Tahoe!

Episode 4, “Sibling Rivalry”, finds the story of Slider and his favorite pesky brother, Snow.  Like most siblings, the brothers fight and play together with gusto.  Yet, there’s no one Slider loves to hang out with more.

Snow, like most little brothers and sisters, wants to be just like his big brother.  In this case, a champion show cat who gets to travel with Pet-Sean to awesome places.

Sean will tell you though that it’s not quite Snow’s time as he is a young kitty with “scaredy cat” issues.  You can see by many of the photos and film footage that he hasn’t settled into his mature self yet. Give it some time, little buddy!

Please be sure to pass the word to your friends and family about SliderCatAdventures on YouTube.   Also, join Slider on Facebook at Slider Ragdoll.  He would absolutely love to have you as a friend.

Is Your Cat Acting Funny? This Could Be Why!

Our Slider Cat Adventures episode for this week is really a public service announcement.  It “reads” like a Family Circle magazine article with a twist at the end. 

When going through the mounds of video and photographs that Sean provides to build stories, this set made me laugh out loud.  Sean grows catnip by the piles to put into cat toys that he sells at catsonglue.com. I never knew what it looked like before he sent photos of the stuff.  One thing is for sure, it makes one do a double take!

Recognize Binks’ voice?  When Sean and I were discussing voices for the kitties, I knew someone needed a Sean Connery voice.  At first I thought it would be good for Slider, but Sean immediately said he could hear that tone for Binks.  I have to agree. 

I also had to utilize one of my favorite idioms.  I tip my hat to Barney Fife.

With Slider’s daddy, Binks, as the concerned “spokeskitty,” I felt this was a grand opportunity for a thought provoking PSA.  Whether you take it as satire or seriously, it’s all Slider!

Be sure to like us and spread us!  We would love for you to share the joy of Slider Cat Adventures.

Episode 3 Finds Slider With Snow Finally In Lake Tahoe

What crazy people do when they're bored!  Create photos like this one.  It was my attempt to make theater masks out of Sean and me.  He is serious and I am not.  Isn't Slider adorable looking down from the sun?

For today's episode, I begged and pleaded to have Sean do a Nestea plunge into the snow for the end of the video, but he would not.  If you haven't seen it already, watch and you'll see why it would have been soooooooo cute! Watch Episode 3 -"That's Snow Kitty"

We'll just have to use our imaginations as to how Slider's attack went down - or was that Sean?  LOL!! I digress...

Anyway, Lake Tahoe finally got snow and so have we in North Carolina.  A big old inch's worth.  Woo hoo!  That can still take a power line down, so I thought while I had internet and power, I would upload Episode 3.  Please LIKE it and SHARE it if you're so inclined and be sure to join Slider on FaceBook as well. 

I might release a Public Service Announcement later on this week if the notion hits me, so keep an eye out for that.  Until then (or next week!), take care!
