🏸 Meow-Minton | A Sport To Replace Badminton 🐈⬛
Badminton is a bit of a boring sport without a net, but add one attack kitty to the situation and you have a whole new even better game.
Just Another Netless Badminton Day 🏸
This badminton session started out normally until ChairWoman Meow, our communist comrade kitty, decided the sport was not a suitable replacement for the peoples' sport, table tennis. Comrade Meow let us play for only 5 minutes before she decided to put an end to our god-given netless badminton rights.
🐈⬛ Meow Puts An End To Badminton 🚫
Meow targeted everything from the birdie to the rackets, and often anything moving in between. Although no photos exist, she was enjoying doing quick drive-bys each time the birdie hit the ground. She was simply too quick for photography, but communists are kind of known for disliking this hobby of the bourgeoisie.
Regardless of the occasional damage done to the birdie by Meow, gameplay continued on. The girls are getting better and better at a proper underhanded serve that would work in a real game, and we'd already have a net if there weren't constant heavy winds here in the Cardamom Mountains.
When the girls battle it out they rarely get a steady volley going, but that will surely come in due time. On this day though, Meow was the star on the court, offering everyone lots of laughs everytime she attacked an ankle, downed birdie, racket or patch of grass.
🤔 Perhaps A New Sport Is Born
Meow was even going to the point to try and camouflage herself in the grass, then shaking her butt just like the moment before she pounces on prey, leaping at the birdie in a single bound. I had no idea this little daytime distraction was going to trigger some killer instincts in our cat. I'm sure that she took this pent up excitement and used it to hunt down several butterflies and geckos.
One of the shots managed to capture Monkey-B on the ground watching Meow while a birdie flew overhead. My wife is responsible for nearly all of these shots because she was experimenting with my phone while the girls and I played a little badminton, I mean meow-minton.
I finish things with Monkey-B in between Srey-Yuu and I, creating a bit of a "monkey in the middle" situation, a favorite childhood game of mine, and one I almost never won because I was one of the youngest and smallest kids in the countryside where I lived. This day of exercise reminds me that I need to involve some aerobic activities in my daily life, but I'd rather have an indoor table tennis setup, especially for the 8 months of rain we have.

Badminton is one of the most popular sports in our country at this time because it is winter. And winter is very suitable for playing badminton. However, table tennis is undoubtedly a great indoor game in the rain. Yeah, I too feel like the cat is practicing hunting with excitement hee hee.
There is also a game played with a shuttlecock like badminton, but no rackets, only feet used to kick the shuttlecock back and forth, have you seen this also? Haha, Meow certainly sharpened her hunting skills on this day.
Yay! 🤗

Haha, meow-minton! Had me laughing! Cool that your kitty is already learning her natural skills.... Hunting! But while her owners are near and watching! Haha, probably just wants to show off what she can do!
Wow! Your girls are growing taller @justinparke I think they will soon outgrow you! Hehe.
I love playing badminton too with my son when he was younger but now since he is already in the university I just reminisce the happy times we had while looking at our badminton rackets hanging on the back door of his bedroom.
I know it's been a while since I've been active here in our aseanhive community and also in hive, I have so many things to share, so much has happened since my last activity.
I'll post it here.
Happy New year to your whole family Justin.
Yeap! Staying active is what we really need to do specially when we are far beyond the calendar days already.... Haha.
Wow, a kid in university, I can't even imagine the day when our girls leave home. I secretly wish to have a family business altogether, but I will support them in whatever they do.
No worries friend, things have been busy in my life too, but the good thing about ASEAN Hive is that it's always here waiting for us when we have time.
Thank you @justinparke for those words of encouragement, that aseanhive community is always here for us, I am touched really! Yeah, I guess there are really times when we just can't do everything just like regular posting here in hive. It does warm the heart knowing we are not forgotten and that we will always be a part of this awesome community.
Oh my! Time flies so fast Justine, just like a blink if an eye so be ready soon your girls will be going to college. I love it how you spend a lot of time with them growing up, you will really miss those days when they will leave for the university.
I know for sure that we have the ability to manifest all
that we desire as long as it's all for the greater good.
Your business, done!
When we ask our source, the universe, the divine with real intent, it is always given.
Let me give you an advance congratulations on your desired family business! Cheers!🥂🥂🥂

Badminton took a funnily feline turn by becoming meow-minton, I think it may be the new Olympic sport where ankle attacks are allowed, glad to see ChairWoman Meow has returned to her hunting days, I guess is no easy job rodents are very fearless when they are against the wall defending their life
Oh no, Meow turned loose on a professional court with a net, that would certainly force her to improve her skills, haha. Meow is such a good hunter and brings us so many gifts that my daughters now correct each when Meow catches some prey, careful not to call a "vole" or a "shrew" a "mouse," and this always makes me laugh.

STOPWow. I do love playing badminton too, since it's the only sport I know to play. But anyway, it looks like the kitty also wanted to hit that racket. 😁
Badminton is very accessible I think. Here in Cambodia the old folks enjoy it because it doesn't require much strength or even a net just to have some quick fun in a small space.
Meow minton looks fun to play.You seem having a good time playing and also the meow playing with you guys.You just gave me me an idea that Meow minton can also played by meows.I guess I have to start training my kittys to be a meow minton athletes :)
Haha, I think most cats would be attracted to a shuttlecock in flight, don't know why we never thought Meow would be amused by it. She loves to catch butterflies and moths, so I'm sure the training is helpful.
