A few years ago, we found a 5-6 week old kitten hiding in a drainage ditch in a large parking lot and adopted her. Salome was very small and flea infested but she was simply adorable, like all kittens seem to be. As she grew up I used to use a few different color lasers for her (and the other resident felines) to chase after, as we have a large living room and there was room for full bore running. She would zip along after the laser, back and forth until she got worn out.
A few night ago I discovered one of the lasers and Salome saw it on the floor. Like before, she chased after it, back and forth. While she was running, the laser stopped working but Salome kept running back and forth...it seems she remembered chasing the laser even when she couldn't always see it all of the time. she didn't see it after it stopped working but figured it would show up again...so she kept running. After about 5 trips back and forth, she finally stopped and began to look for it and then looked at me, waiting for the fun to start again. It has been close to a year since she last played with the laser and I was surprised to see her remember the game so well...even when it wasn't working right!
