I am TERRIBLY cruel to my cat. I tease him with a vine tendril

This reminds me of the cat I had when my husband and I married. Her name
was Baby; she loved to go into paper sacks. My husband would twirl her
around his head for two or three rotations, then let her out. (The first
time I was horrified and asked him to not do it anymore!!!) She would
stagger around for a while, go up to him, rub his leg, then get back in
the sack and look at him until he did it again.
So I gather you changed your mind after you saw how much Baby liked
it. Did your husband tell you how baby trained him to twirl her?
One time I used this sig file:
Sometimes when I play with my cat I make him to go around in a
circle really fast until he gets so dizzy that he can't stand up
anymore. Then I make him to go around in the opposite direction.
I call it winding the cat. I think I wind him too much because the
clock in his stomach runs fast.
Someone accused me of abusing my cat. I had to explain that he
LOVES it.
That's especially fun to do with a laser pen. ;-)
I've had up to 6 cats chasing the laser dot on the floor, down the hall
and up the wall! lol It's hilarious and they love it!
I've got to get another one. The one I had wore out.
Cats, catnip. This fall, I located two large bird cages to put around
catnip plants so they can be planted in the ground.
My cat has loved catnip ever since I adopted him when he was three
months old. I have been thinking of growing some cat marijuana for
him but haven't gotten around to it yet.
It's cheap and easy!
I had a ton of Catnip come up in the asparagus patch! I suspect there
were seeds mixed in with the soil around those roots. :-) A very happy
accident and the cats just adore the fresh stuff!
Thanks for your sig line.
You are very welcome.
Kitties are special little family members aren't they?
