My Belle loves to play fetch.  She can't get enough all day and
night.    I put a video of her on youtube.  You can find it by typing
"Belle thinks she is a dog"

I also put her on a site called myfriendremembered.com  Kind of a cute
site it is free.  It let me put my own page, a pet page and a slide
show for Belle.  So I put all my pets on there.  It looks new though,
there were just a few up but it was free and cute.  So there you go.

Any way let me know what other cats play fetch.

 A story of Pish can be found at

 I am not quite sure whether that link will work - let me know.

Very cute video!  I love the way she crouches on the table waiting for the
bottle cap to be tossed again.

Persia couldn't care less about fetching anything.  If I throw something
she'll go after it but only to bat it around a bit by herself.

Dante is an absolutely fetchy monster.  His favorite thing is drinking
straws.  He will bring them to me and trill.  If I throw it, it will
launch a hideous cycle of throwing and fetching that could take
eternities to stop. ;)

Do cats ever fall for the "fake throw"? I used to think that was such
a mean trick
to play on a d*g. :-)

The Stripey Thing does. After a bit of playing (20-30 minutes), I get
tired and just want to read my book. I throw the pompom and don't let
go. He jumps high in the air for it and then goes to look for it.
Unfortunately, that usually isn't the end of it and he just finds
another one to bring back to me to keep playing.

The Little Monster (Kotyo) is crazy about fetching, too. You would think
that after 6 years he would be more into snoozing and less into running,
but no. Every night it's the same thing: he finds one of his balls or
mousies, brings it to me and drops it at my feet. Then he sits there,
staring at me and mmmrrrppp-ing until I pick up the ball/mousie and
start throwing it.

His favourite game is for me to throw the ball up to the top of his cat
tree. There is a platform with raised sides at the top, sort of like a
box. Once he sees the ball falling into the box, he will slooowly creep
up the cat tree, stealthily climbing from platform to platform, until he
reaches the one right below the top. Then he very carefully raises his
head until he's peering into the top platform, keeping his ears folded
back the whole time, so that they don't stick up above the top of the
box and alert the ball to his presence. Finally, when he has lulled the
ball into a false sense of security, he POUNCES up and into the top
platform, grabs the unsuspecting ball, jumps off the cat tree and
triumphantly runs back to me, dropping the ball at my feet and waiting
for me to throw it again.

One of these days I have got to get this on video. It's the funniest
thing... especially the crazed look in his eyes while he's creeping up
the tree...

LOL  You *absolutely* have to get this on video!  It's a must-do thing.  No
doubt about it!

I will try. Unfortunately he gets distracted when the video camera comes
out, so usually all I get is footage of his nose sniffing the camera.
True, it's a very pretty pink nose, but I'd prefer to have video of
other parts of him as well - his tail, or maybe an ear or two... I guess
I'll just have to keep trying...

Thanks! I think he's the cutest, of course, but then I might be *just* a
little bit biased :-)

I would LOVE to see this! I saw from your other post that he gets
distracted by the camera. Hmm... maybe you need to just spend some
time videotaping him (or pretending to) until he's bored with the
camera. *Then* play "throw the ball up to the platform"?

I think I'll just start carrying the camera with me everywhere. Sooner
or later I'll get him... Once I do, I promise to post the video online
for you guys to see.

It is so cute how many cats play fetch I had necer seen it before but
since Bell does it I noticed on youtube that so many other cats do it
as well.  I think they do a better job than the dogs.  Mine is
seriously into it.  Very focused.

I have another video of Bell playing fetch with her teddy bear.  We
adobted Molly because Bele had adobted a Teddy bear as her baby.  We
woulc come home and find the bear in the food dish, the litter, the
bed.  It looked as though she was trying to take care of it as it was
a baby.  So we adobted Molly.  They seem to get along perfectly.

Fugazi (RB) was seriously into fetch it was the only game she played.
Sarrasine also likes a game of it from time to time

Five plays fetch when we throw her kibble or her treats. If we throw either
Lean Treats or her CET Cat Chews she *really* starts flying.  We ought to
have a radar gun to clock her - the claw marks in our bodies don't
accurately estimate the speed :O
