Nina, you make me smile!  I will be sure to watch carefully the next time we are out stalking socks!  Miss is a real sweetie, and she loves fetching.  She used to jump very acrobatically, but alas, her weight prohibits her from it now. Sandy     That's so very cute!  What a doll-baby!  I

Cricket used to play fetch with his "toy". It was some feathers attached to the end of a plastic stick. He would bring it to me and I would throw it and he would bring it back. If I tried to use it like a tickler, like normal kitties like, he wasn't interested in it. Only fetching and also jump

Lora, Take the milk ring from him and roll it on the floor. My guess is he'll run after it, retrieve it, and bring it back to you for more play! You may need to encourage him to bring it back the first few times. My Ursula loves those dumb rings too. Nina Lora wrote: Jenn, LOL. Our Baby

That's so very cute!  What a doll-baby!  It sounds like Miss is bringing you fresh sock kill for you to learn how to hunt!  I think that's so adorable.  Have you tried playing with some of the smaller objects she brings?  She's probably a good fetcher.  Momma ferals, I guess house cats may do i

Jenn, LOL. Our Baby Mason does this! :) Only he prefers plastic milk jug rings. Late at night (or early in the morning, depending on how you look at it) he walks through the entire house, room to room, meowing to himself with this stupid ring in his mouth. Neither are any of the other cats around

I don't know why, but it sure is cute! What a cool cat! My Snowshoe carries things in her mouth while meowing loudly, and looking around frantically like she thinks someone is going to take it from her, but she never brings the item to us, she just walks around meowing with it in her mouth. I

Sandy, Aw, that is just "too" cute. Can't even think of why she's bringing you gifts though...  It is quirky as you said, but very endearing too. I'd feel very "honored". All I ever get is "whacked" on the head with the water bowl ( a very large stainless steel communal bowl). Yes, heaven
