When Nanki-Poo plays, he does it very enthusiastically, with much galloping
and squealing.

A couple of days before Halloween, a real estate agent left his card, along
with a small (3-4 inch diameter) plastic pumpkin.  Inside the pumpkin was
some of the white fuzz they use for fake spiderwebs, and a black plastic
spider ring, with the spider a little over an inch in diameter.  I thought I
had put it away, but don't remember for sure what I did with it.

A while ago I heard him playing, noisily as always.  Later, after he had
settled down, I went out of my office.  I found the pumpkin on the living
room floor and the white fuzz and the spider ring in the hallway.  Still
later, the spider disappeared, although it reappeared eventually.  I also
found a fuzzy ball in my shoe.
