I wish I had a way to record it.Â* Unfortunately I don't have a camera
built into my glasses and I'm busy dangling the toy.

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

Anyway, I got out the fishing wand toy with the little mousie on the
end.Â* Oooh!Â* 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.Â* Up on the
cradle. She really tried by oops, not quite there.Â* Can you catch the
mousie?

It didn't take long to have her leaping through the barrel like a
trained circus cat.Â* Got to catch the mousie!Â* 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!Â* She really
wants that mousie!Â* (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.Â* Now she's up on the cradle, taking it
easy.

It sounds like she had a great time.Â* My two exotic Persian girls are
the first indoor cats I've ever had and I worry about them getting
bored.Â* They have toys but hardly ever bother with them.Â* 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.Â* 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.Â*Â* They seem happy though.



Have you tried a laser pointer?Â* I found them at the Dollar Tree for -
you guessed it - a dollar.Â* Pickles isn't interested, but Koala has to
have his red dot time every day.


No I haven't tried one, Joy, thanks for the suggestion. I'll try and
get one and see what they think of it.
