This morning, Curly's engaging in one of his favorite games: Batting at any object in the bottom of the mission-style plant stands that I cobbled together as a makeshift nightstand/notebook platform. This morning's victim is a fine-point Sharpie that I use to write on CDs and DVDs..

He'd love my apartment. I love Sharpies, and have a rather large collection. The jar I keep them in always ends up knocked over and Sharpies strewn about, since what cat wouldn't want to play with Sharpies?
Buckeye, Dealer of Rare Coins -- Curly loves pens and pencils of all types, but really, as long as it's in the nearly ground-level shelf of these bound-together plant stands, he'll poke his paws through the slats and paw at at, regardless. It could be a piece of paper, nailclippers... anything, really. There's just something terribly amusing to him about sticking a paw through there to get at whatever's on the other side. This is often accompanied by the cute turning of the head, anthropomorphically suggesting puzzlement. :)

My sister's kitties play with those plastic twist strips that come off of milk cartons. One would sit on one of them and become slowly excited, leap into the air and bat the twist about the kitchen floor. Hilarious to watch.
Looks like your kitty likes the difficult hunt..
Our little kitty likes the cards that fall out of magazines. You put one on the edge of the lamp table and gently push it off, so it wafts to the floor like a falling leaf -- and the kitty is absolutely electrified. He comes over, looks at it, sniffs at it, sits on it, and then when he can't stand the suspense anymore, he goes nuts on it. Then he zooms away at top speed, leaving the crumpled magazine card for dead. Good thing Newsweek supplies several per issue!
