This is another reason I love Maine Coons. I have seen that tendency to structured games personally, and it makes them such good company.

I wish I had that video still of Artemis fetching Q tips…. He doesn't do it any more.

I wish I would have made videos of my kitties. They are quite funny at times.

So many cute puppies and kitties! T^T I want them all to snuggle!

XD The Maine Coon that I knew once played a very structured game of BOO with me.

Sounds like fun Tam. Was that like Hide and Seek?

If, its a cat, probably. XD *snuggles all the pets* ♥

I was sitting in the doorway of his owner (one of my birth sisters) while we talked, and Wolven would come charging at me every so often and I would tell him, "BOO!", whereupon he'd turn and scramble away at top speed. After awhile I got so caught up in the conversation that I forgot about Wolven. So he leapt at me on his next charge and said, "ROWER!" before turning and scrambling away like usual. My sister and I both stared in gobsmack at the cat saying boo.

ROTFL

That's a GREAT story, Tam. :D

OMG! XD That's freakin adorable!

I don't know if any of you guys remember those beanbag toys called "Silly Slammers"? They were balls that you tossed, and they'd talk on impact. Well, my sister's son had one of those named Frisco, who talked like a surfer and had long yarn hair. Wolven would sometimes carry Frisco all over the apartment by the hair, occasionally dropping him to hear him talk. One day Frisco's battery finally gave out. Poor Wolven carried the toy around anxiously, dropping it once in awhile and then picking it up again. This went on for most of the day till he finally tucked Frisco into a corner and went away crying. He never touched Frisco again, and it seemed to us that he thought his friend had died.

Oh dear, poor Wolven. No one had new batteries to see if he'd play with it again?

The battery couldn't be replaced.

Aw, poor Wolven then for loosing a friend. If I could have I would have seen about opening a seam, see if there was a way to replace it, and then patch it back up.

I'm a good sewer, but you really can't change the batteries on those mechanisms. I've looked at similar ones to make sure.
