No deal. She liked those catnip mice, though. I'd stand in the kitchen and throw one out into the living room, and a few seconds later, <i>pounce</i>!</p> http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/TBCGIVES/28711/#c_260018 http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/TBCGIVES/28711/#c_260018 <p>There was a humane society commercial about ten years ago that said to give your cat an open grocery bag like the cat in the picture is in for &quot;hours of enjoyment.&quot; I gave one to my kitty; she just looked at it.

She actually plays with my dog, because he's a fat chihuahua and she's still smaller than him. She doesn't know she's a cat because she was abandoned and showed up next to my brother-in-law's car. Since I took her in the house the night I found her, the first animal she saw was the chihuahua. Isn't it funny how they get along but the older cat hates her?</p> http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/TBCGIVES/28711/#c_260077 http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/TBCGIVES/28711/#c_260077 <p>My kitten will play with anything she can find.

Days later I'll find paper bag bits halfway across the house. They do the same to cardboard boxes, but not as quickly. </p> http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/TBCGIVES/28711/#c_260254 http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/TBCGIVES/28711/#c_260254 <p>My cats will play inside the paper bag for a few minutes, then they will proceed to destroy it....
