Day 101 ~ Playing Catch

I've never played catch with a cat until I got the cat I have now. He has his own cat toys, but he generally loses them under something or in the basement. It is a wonderful day for him when we move the furniture around and get the 6 cat toys out for him. Sometimes he will steal a Pom-Pom or two from one of the kids school project. They are exactly like the ones we bought for him that were actual cat toys. So I let him keep those, after all I'm not going to do anything else with the project and I usually take a picture of them when they come home. If it is too small I take it away because I don't want him eating it or choking on it.

So this cat will bring me his toy to throw. At first, I thought he was bringing it to me as a gift since cats often bring gifts, even if unwanted, to their owners. But he kept meowing at me after I picked it up, so I threw it and he was so delighted to run after it. He usually bats it away once, picks it up, and drops it at my feet to throw again. Once this gets started, it usually doesn't stop until he loses it under something or I just have to quit. The cat is better at playing catch than my dog!
