Hello Everyone, my name is Jessie and I will be your instructor today This is a large class, so pay close attention because there will be an exam at the end.
The hunting instinct is as basic to us as eating and sleeping or watching TV. After all, we have a long line of predatory ancestry, including such fierce a member as the saber-toothed tiger. We know we have a noble tradition to maintain.
So when we get bored, we must entertain ourselves There are a large variety of toys available for us. Some are made for hunting, some just for fun, they are made of latex, vinyl, rawhide, and other inedible material, they are often given to us by our humans with much rejoicing for our birthday, Christmas or even anniversary gifts. These toys come in the shape of dumbbells, sausages, ladybugs, lollipops, giant balls, peanuts, and even mice. The trouble is that they have been designed by people, not cats. Consequently, cats often choose to ignore these toys or let their owners play with them. Fortunately, the average household is usually well stocked with other toys just right for the cat looking for something to do or to hunt.
My Favorite Toy Is My Human
How can that be you ask yourself Gather around and I will explain. Have you ever played Hide-and-Seek with your meowmie, or turned on the light switch and then laughed to yourself when she couldn't figure out how it got turned on. Have you ever walked across the phone and turned on the answering machine or slid a bar of soap into the living room? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, then you have been using your human as a toy. They are great to hunt and to hunt with.
Of all the toys available, none is better designed than the human. He is a large multipurpose plaything, designed just for our pleasure. Human parts can be made to move in almost any direction, It comes completely assembled and it makes a sound when you jump on it. I love the "Ooofff" noise when you land on your humans tummy at 3 in the morning.
You can sleep with your human, cuddle in the middle of the night. You can play tug of war, and have pillow fights when your meowmie is trying to make the bed. You can hide under the pillow so she can't find you, or hide under the bed so that she has to be the hunter.
