Boy, are cats ever fun.
Boo - my 4 year old DLH boy from our local humane society is a blast to be with.
He's easy to please as well - loves canned wet food and dry food.
I've changed the litter box to longer,deeper and covered, since he's a major digger. Does a fantastic job of covering his poops or pee. He took to the covered box no problem. Just had to take the door flap off. I'll train him how to use that door sometime.
I love how cat's say hello back to you, in a little burbley sing-song voice.
He has a blast with many different toys. His favorites are the laser pointer, Kong Kickaroo, Kong Active (the one that looks like a snake on a wand) and that Cat's Meow that I just picked up at Walmart with the battery operated imitation mouse that randomly spins in either direction underneath a plastic sheet. You've got to get one! For $18 it's worth it. Plus of the cost of 3 annoying C Batteries. You've likely seen them on t.v. He went bonkers over it, trying to figure it out. Finally he got frustrated with it and pounced on the center pieces thinking it's the body of the rodent or something.
It's hilarious to see him kick the crap out of the Kickaroo, with his back feet. Why is that, what's going on when cat's do that? Is that how they would kill a squirrel? He bites one end then curls up and bang bang bang with his rear paws.
I'm hoping he doesn't get bored of it, because it's really cute/funny. Maybe I'll limit that toy to once a week to keep it fresh.
Edit - he's slowly warming up to me each day and wanting more pets or scratches, or face sniffs/rubs. He still isn't keen on being picked up - unfortunate but maybe sometime.
