by Whenever I vacuum I have to gather up all the toys and pile them on the coffee table. The cats then jump up, all excited. “OHMYGOD!! Where did these come from??” Like they’ve never seen them before. Exaggeration Alert:. In reality it’s more like, “What’s this? Oh. These.” But for a second they’re excited. I bought all those stuffed animals thinking they’d learn to bite them instead of me. Didn’t work. They love the stuffed animals, but they still also love to bite me.
Speaking of stuffed animals, have you seen the NOVA story with Neil deGrasse Tyson and Chaser the dog who recognized the names of 1000 stuffed animals? (URL below, i hope… If it doesn’t work, just Google it).
