Well... I bought this awesome toy today.. its a toy on a string, that is connected to a plastic rod, taht has a suction cup on the end.. I can put it onto glass my cats can play with it by themselves for as long as they want..
both my cats LOVED it... but expecially aerowyn... I think she has a bell fetish
so she played with it for four hours straight.. now.. its like 70 in our house .. not all that cool.. and it was just that temp from the air conditioning on ... anyways she would play with it, jumping aorund and getting it and batting it for about 20 mins.. then lay panting for about 10 mins and start all over again.. she did this for FOUR HOURS STRAIGHT!!! Now, she is not a fat kitty, in fact she could gain a pound or two, so i was worried too much exercise might make her lose what she doesnt have, so I took it down for the night....
poor little thing has been meowing at me all night, looking up on top of the tv stand where I put her toy... so I just took it in my room and played with her a bit.. oh she loved it.. I petted her with the plastic stick part and she meowed! She loves it. and she loves to play tug o' war with it.. but then I thought.. well I dont want to stimulate her too much, so I put it away where she couldnt get it.. but now she is looking at me all forlorn and meowing like "oh wheres my toy? I want to play with it!!!" Its only been an hour since I took it off of the window.....
should I just let her have the toy or not?? It doesnt bother me (the sound) but I am worried if it wouldbe bad for her to play with it all night (which I am pretty sure she would...
aww she is so sad though, and meowing at me... I just dont want her to get overheated..
has anyone else had a cat that loved a toy so much they would play with it all day???
she is sitting on the computer thing right now (erm.. that you can put cd's floppys in.. I dont know what it si called.. ) whenever I lookat her she looksa tme and meows. and looks up to where I put the toy.. the thing is she meowed, and started panting again.. so I definitely think I was right in taking it away.. it may make her a bit sad but she will be ok in the morning.
