Bet – love the Donut story! That’s great. My cat had 3 favorite balls she liked to play with – I never had a “fetching” cat before, but these 3 balls where just right and she would engage in great play while they were to be found. Over the course of months we would sometimes have 3 or 2 or 1 that would actually be “out in the open” but all of them have been lost now for a couple of months. I discovered the rings off the milk jugs are now the perfect toy – she will play for a very long time with these by herself – and loves to have us throw them and slide down the hall with them and then she will retrieve. We had about 5 in circulation and all were gone until I finally realized they were all under the washer/dryer – so now if we keep drinking milk we have a steady supply of toys. Take that Petsmart!
Snow update?? Heard VT was closed so must be crazy over there!!!
Cat swiffer shoes – now based on my above story – we could totally do that. This cat doesn’t have much issue with things around her (string, christmas vest) and she absolutely loves to slide down the hardwood floors – so we would definitely use those!! She also loves to dive into the bean bag chair – not sure how I could turn that into something useful – but I’ll keep thinking!
