OMG kitty! \oO/

Well, long as we're waiting for the pictures - and I am sorry for the delay - , let's hear it about cat toys. Brian's article does help quite a bit, although I do by default have enough presence of mind to avoid the noisier toys right away. Or I'd like to think so.

The thing is, we're clearly looking at an intelligent cat here. You remember that plushy rattling ball I told you about? With a string and a rod? Let's just say he figured it out and now goes straight for the rod whenever I bring it out. (And incidentally, since I'm a born worrier, I keep worrying about him getting tangled up in the string, even though I've seen him get out of it multiple times. Is that in general something to look out for?)

I think I'm just gonna go and get him some good old plush mice. No mechanisms, no strings attached (BWUHAHA I KILL ME), few parts to chew off and swallow (which he has done with another toy... didn't seem to do any harm though), the works. Any other ideas for toys and games?
I totally gotta reread this thread for that, too.
