Glorious Hissy Toys


Doggy Yoga
 There are squeaky toys and then there are glorious Hissy Toys.  Hissy toys are self animating objects that live on beds, under beds, on the backs of chairs and in closets.  Every once in a while you can catch one in the hall way and then it is really fun.  If you find a Hissy toy on the bed and you poke your nose at it, it begins that wonderful hissing sound.  If you poke your nose at it more than once you can make the hissing sound undulate.  The hissy toy doesn't actually move or do anything it just sounds like a tea kettle about to implode. 

Resident Hissy Toy
The particular hissy toy that lives around here is black with gold eyes.  It isn't afraid of Nana and will be happy to walk right by her crate knowing full well that the evil dog is safely contained.  She will lay on the bed ignoring the dog unless provoked in which case, she still won't move - but will begin to emit that glorious hissing sound that is just hard to resist if you are only 6 months old and think the world is your playground. 

No doubt about it Hissy toys are sooooo much more interesting then squeaky toys.
