Buffy and I just had a great play session!* I've got a little carpeted
barrel with a cradle above it as a piece of cat furniture.* Buffy
"inherited it" from Persia.* Buffy immediately claimed it as her own.

Anyway, I got out the fishing wand toy with the little mousie on the
end.* Oooh!* She loves that!

After her jumping trying to catch it, then chasing it along the floor, I
dangled it around the ends of the kitty barrel.* Up on the cradle.* She
really tried by oops, not quite there.* Can you catch the mousie?

It didn't take long to have her leaping through the barrel like a
trained circus cat.* Got to catch the mousie!* Then again, I was
flicking the mousie at the end of the fishing wire like a circus master.
LOL

It's always fun and comical and oh my, is she tenacious!* She really
wants that mousie!* (I let her catch it a few times... then gently tug
it away from her to start the play again.)

Had a great play session.* Now she's up on the cradle, taking it easy.

It sounds like she had a great time. My two exotic Persian girls are
the first indoor cats I've ever had and I worry about them getting
bored. They have toys but hardly ever bother with them. I bought them
a new one last week, it's like a furry mouse on a 6 inch spring, they
are supposed to bat it, it's called a Kitty Swat. Not interested.

I dangle "fishes on a stick" in front of them. Not interested. I can
only assume that my exciting house is enough to allieviate the boredom
of being inside. They seem happy though.


If you send your GPS coordinates, I'll point my laser across the pond. I just hope there are not any tall buildings in Shrewsbury; you're in Leicester as I recall. ˓˓ฅ₍˄ุ.͡ ̫.˄ุ₎ฅ˒˒


Hahaha!
I'm assuming Shrewsbury is in a direct line from you to me, where do you
live? Btw as a matter of interest, every American I have known thinks
Leicester is pronounced Ly-cester. Be ahead of them and tell them it's
Lester ;-)


No, I'm in Toronto.
