Default Milk Jug Ring

I don't know where Persia had this little milk jug ring stashed. I
walked into the living room yesterday and there it was in the middle of
the floor. I gave it to her *years* ago! I think she must have fished
it out from under the bookcase. Goofy little girl

Those things have a tendency to "hide" for years at a time. A couple
years ago when we replaced the monstrosity that was our (dead) 65-inch
projection TV (this thing was 5 feet tall, about 6 feet wide and 3 feet
deep, with a "extension" in back that encased the angled mirror) with a
new flat-panel, when we finally got the TV out, there were 6 or 7 milk
rings, 6 or 7 bottle caps, and umpteen million twist ties....

The cats thought it was Christmas.....

LOL! That reminds me of when I still lived in the apartment in TN. The
element in my electric oven (stove/oven combo) went out so I called to
have the handyman replace it. He pulled the stove away from the wall.
There were all the little wrapped pieces of butterscotch candy Persia
had batted around over the years!

I just had to laugh

A number of years ago, I "cat tended"
baby for a neighbor while she was in a rehab facility. Baby liked to play with drinking straws but they kept disappearing.
One day I moved the sofa and found a stash of 29 drinking straws
bABY WAS THEN IN KITTY PARADISE. mlb

I don't even know where she got them, originally, but one of mine (who
liked things thrown for her to retrieve) used to embarrass me by
resurrecting discarded tampon wrappers when I had company!

I wish Boyfie or KFC (RB) would even have deigned to play with anything I
provided, and I did try with boxes and pretend mice and a furry pole and
platform and everything really for their heart's desire that I'd learnt on
here that they would love. They thought I was crazy.
I remember trying 2 cardboard boxes for Kitty FC in case she would like to
amuse herself by jumping in and out of it.

I can only say she gave me a very withering glance.

Your cats don't/didn't need toys - they have the real thing!

Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me,
for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me, either. Just leave me
the hell alone. -- Unknown

It's not without difficulties. Deciding on safe or not outside.
