I just bought a new kite! 

https://www.powerkiteshop.com/kites/ozonefrenzy05.htm

Mine is only 3 square meters, so it's a tiny one made for really windy days. 

Anyone care to guess the total number of kites I possess?

Ahhh! I had hoped it was going to be a kitten but congratulations anyway!  ;D

I'll go with 12?

I totally thought you set a cat trap (empty cardboard box).

I would say 8?

Everybody wants cats!  I think my husband is even ready to put up with the allergies and go for a cat... Mr. Mouse attacked our potatoes, and that's where my husband draws the line.  His potatoes, man!

When you tell him about my home’s mouse problems, leave out that I have a cat!   ;D

I told him about your epic tale right after you conquered the foe, to give him hope that once our house is sealed up, we might live a mouse-free lifestyle.  I did not mention your feline family members.

I present you with 15 kites.  Add in the one I bought today that is in the mail and that makes 16.

I pronounce Larrabee the winner. 

Here's my kid and a kite


And here's the repair where I wrecked it

Or sledging...  or a very spiral out of control linked to Urban Dictionary.

See?  We are more than just cats!   ;D
