I went home at lunchtime and Dori was walking around with one of my magnets in her mouth. What is the weirdest thing you have ever caught your cats playing with?

walnuts off the walnut tree
My boys will play hockey with their kibble. At first I thought I was being a bad mommy since they didn't have any of their balls out. So I went searching and pulled them all out from under the couch and refridgerator. But even with the balls in the middle of the room, kibble went skittering around.
Pipsqueek also loves a plastic egg. He bats it around, but it doesn't go straight.

Saladina and Moab have been lately playing around with potatoes.... they broke the potato sack that is in the kitchen and they are rolling around the house.
Planeta.... with my dirty underwear.

Ophelia likes playing with black silk rose buds. I used to have a few silk floral arrangements....she took off all of the black rose buds (none of the other flowers, just those). She LOVES them! Oh, but she doesn't like any other colors....not burgandy, not blue, not red....just black.
I have to leave the door to the bathroom closed at all tiems now..because Angus will drag embarassing unmentionables from the garbage and play with them.
Gotta be the dogs. It is hysterical watching them play together - big pawed dogs trying to bat like a cat, and cats trying to jump and tackle them (all 45 pounds of puppy).
Snowball likes to play with paper bags that are way too small. He pushes the bag around in front of him and acts like he's trying to get inside, but the bags are so small the only thing that actually fits is his head.
Vegemite loves to jump up and try to swat the little thingies that stop the door handle from banging on the wall (what are those things called? lol).
Also, a couple of years ago, Honey Boy took a small female personal item, pawed at it until it came out of it's wrapper and then walked around with it hanging by it's string from his teeth! I was so surprised, I chased him and he went under the bed with it and wouldn't come out. I had to leave him be, hoping he'd just leave it there. A few hours later, I looked under the bed - no thingie. I'm thinking, oh geez, my housemate has some of her family coming over! I have to find it! I just about had a hernia looking for it. In the end, I had to tell everyone who came into the house that I had a cat that stole things, so if they came across said thingie, I wasn't a dirty person, it was the cat!
I never found it.

One of her other odd favorites is a seashell that I brought in one time from the beach. It's one of those that curved so it looks like something used to live in it. She found it one day and it's been hers every since. She also loves to bat around whole walnuts in the shell-not almonds, not pecans-just walnuts.
Kellye, I think that's even more eeeewwww that what HB used to do!
(Though it's seems to be a popular past-time for many cats.)
Rosie: Normally bites off the flower heads and steals the bath sponge.
Sophie:Anything!, but she quite likes jumping into my handbag

my kitten loves to play with the fish food tub, its his favorite toy
When we're getting ready for the shower, we must be careful where we leave our underwear. One of my males likes my wife's underwear and will tote it all over the house
