OT: Question for you guys...
Hi all, Here is alittle background of the kitty I'm questioning about. DSH Red/orange Tabby approximate age 5yrs eating/drinking/using litterbox/playing when he feels like it good health/FELV negative He belongs to my Mom. Okay, all the sudden he is smacking things like cords off of lamps on the floor. Smacking the video tape holders and boxes. These items are on the floor and I have witness him doing so. He just started doing this in the last few months. Do you have any idea of why he is doing this? I think it may have something to do with his neurological part of his brain. But I don't know I have alot of respect of what you guys say and think on this wonderful caring group.

howis he approaching and smacking?

well, I wouldn't worry too much about it because that's a normal play behavior. Are any of those things new to the house? Maybe his eyesight is changing some?
