When our kitten decides that it's time to play she will start to "meow" and bring us one of her toys that she wants us to play with her with. When she's done, she'll take the toy back and walk out, lol. What does your cat do when they want to play?

My cats love to find things to play with and they will play with each other. However if they want to play with one of us they will usually pounce on our foot or similar. One likes to hide under beds and reach out to swat at feet. He really likes to do this while you are making the bed. Of course others like to lay on the bed while we are making it and when you move them they jump right back. I'm sure it's a game to them.

heehee, my parent's cat used to attack feet from under the bed. You never knew when it was coming, just happen to walk by the bed and BAM! You've got a hyperactive kitten wrapped around your ankle chewing on your sock. Little bugger had claws though, and never remembered to be nice and retract them first...

I don't know what it is with cats and making the bed. Everyone I know that has cats say the same thing, that as soon as they make the bed or start the cat is right there under the covers trying to help, lol.

My cat loves to play hide and seek with a piece of string that he tries to catch and bite 'em. But he's having a bad habit (for me) of waking me up at 4:00am just to play with her. He don't wake up my husband, but only me. He comes to my side and meow in a low tone, then if i only move a little he will try give me a small bite and stare at me. And if still doesn't work he jump on my face and leak it, with a few small bites and the last thing he'll do, he will go on my head and pull my hair. Gee, what else can i do but stand up a just play a bit with him...

I wonder why cats always seem to wake only one person up but not the other. Our kitten does the same thing, except she's constantly with the husband. Maybe one day will figure out what's going on in their minds, lol.

My cats have a whole basket full of their toys, they love to play with the cat nip ones and I am always finding them under the couch, my one cat gets so excited when I find them and throw them in the air. He also like the teasers and will cry for me to play with him, I do most times, he is very spoiled.

Aww, how cute. I think it's fun to spoil all the cats with different toys. They never know what's coming next. Our cats also hide their toys under everything and get excited when we find them too.

Well I have 5 cats, and between them, they have lots of toys, though my oldest three prefer to sleep and eat rather than play nowadays. But Lily (who is 10 moths old), and Frodo (who is 2), are both very playfull, and spend hoursplaying wth their little "ping-pong" balls wth bells inside, and their cat nips toys! They also spend hours playing with each other, - chasing each other round the house and garden, running up and down trees together, and playing hide and seek around the furntiure - LOL! Though rodo is still much bigger and stronger than his little "sister" he is always gentle with her, and often lets her win - just like real kids do! They are a real joy and pleasure to watch!

They are so much fun to watch and just watching them play will just bring a smile to your face. You can be having the worst day ever and just coming home and seeing them play will make you laugh.

Awww, that's so cute that she brings out her toy to you and takes it away when she's done! My cat just used to attack ankles when he was playful, he liked trying to trip people as they walked down the hallway, or running and laying down right in front of you so you almost step on him... then when you step over him he'll get up and run in front of you again.

It is a funny sight to see when she starts to do it. She does the whole jumping in front of you and attacking ankles thing also but only does that to my husband.

Wow, she really wants to play if she's doing all that, lol. Hopefully, she'll stop biting you soon. Maybe it's just a stage. :-)
