If that were my cat I'd name him Mittens. :apaw: :)

Weird! My old cat used to do the same thing with dropped rubber bands. They always ended up in the water bowl.

Rubber bands are a big hit, too. But I have to take those away, because I'm afraid they are eating them.

I love cats. They taste like chicken. ;)

My cat plays fetch with my hair bands. She'll steal them off my nightstand, too. I buy a pack of 30, and they're gone in a month. She must drop them off in the same place missing socks go...

I think there was an amusing/disgusting thread on the result of cats eating rubber bands, but I sure as hell aren't going to go looking for it...

Have you checked under the couch? That's where I usually find Bosco's stash of bottle caps, contact lens case caps, pens, pencils, straws, mom's earring, etc. etc.

Let's see that cat bring these home:

This sculpture is in my "T" station here in Cambridge and I thought it did a nice job of connecting the last two IOD's (I'sOD?). The photos are horrible but the art is fun when it is not being used as a gum receptacle.

You know, I think this work actually generated controversy and is found offensive by some who consider it insensitive to holocaust victims. No, really.

Once your cat is bored with chasing a laser beam around the floor (with occasional trips up the wall just for laughs), and put a loop of tape on the back of one paw, or maybe a wee bit more there's always zero-G

Seriously - I have the exact same problem. And they are normally under the couch and/or under the bed, nightstand or whatever little area that I'm not gonna crawl under. The other thing that one of my girls does (Peach) is that I have these little stuffed bears that my mom made for me when I was a little girl and she had knitted little sweaters for the dolls - the cat carry's them around the house like her babies (she was fixed before she had any) and I come home and I find either a pile of them in the cat bed or on my bed or just randomly scattered around the house. Also - something Peach does - she is my snooze button - I hit my snooze button after the alarm goes off and all of a sudden I have a cat in my face meowing until the snooze button goes off again. Makes missing my alarm rather difficult. My other girl Boo-Boo thinks she's a dog - she fetches and retreives and she's trained on a leash to go on walks.

Most of our cat toys (plastic milk rings, pens et cetera...) wind up under either the fridge or stove where we cannot readily retrieve them.

Last year my husband brought home a kitty from work who was near death, he had a huge abcess on his neck, nearly as large as his head. Anyhow, the first time I tried to play-drag a leather string in front of him, he pounced on it with both front feet and then snatched his head down to bite it to 'kill' it.
Husband thinks LuckyDuck received his wound because he had been bitten by a snake. I agree, as if it were from another cat, I feel he would not have been so trusting and friendly with our established housefull.

That's a pretty cool installation, astrodex.....especially for $30k. It seems public art starts at a half million bucks these days..... and much of it sucks, in the eyes of this beholder. :rolleyes:

There are people who will think the Sun is insensitive to the holocaust for rising in the morning. I feel sorry for them.

Oh, it's IOtD.

I think we all know that cats are born with a heathy does of the "play gene" as nature's way of helping them practice hunting. It sharpens all their skills and instincts. Another interesting fact that I learned from some biologist friends is that when cats bring home dead animals (or remnants thereof) and leave them for you to find, they are teaching YOU to hunt. Sort of the "do as I do" approach. Apparently felines find that we don't go out there and kill enough of our own food...

Hey! I bring home LOTS of saran wrapped packages of meat!

Stupid cats.
Dogs however, know, we are the greatest hunters that ever existed. Good doggie.:D
