My nephew's cats (that I'm babysitting)
are having WAY too much fun on my hardwood floors. One just flew by on one of my rag rugs. Sigh. They start in the bedroom, wind themselves up, hit the rag rugs, and surf the hardwood. Well, at least SOMEONE (yes, I'm looking at you, Sunrise) is having fun.

2. Excellent idea, qnr!

I think I might refine it a little. Get kitty sized sponges, strap those puppies on the four feet, and have them wash my kitchen floor... I'm thinking this idea might need work. Or, I could wax my floor and then have the cats fling themselves around to polish it!
eta: when I was a kid (50 years ago) I do remember my mother waxing the floors, then we (my sister and I) would get on an old blanket, and my mother would whip us around the room. It was fun for us; polished the floors; and gave my mother a real workout.

4. LOL!! That sounds like a lot of fun for a cat to be having
I used to get my cats to chase a laser pointer so intensly that they would chase it all the way to the rug in my hardwood livingroom floor. They would then crash into my door head first.
:evilgrin:
