Do you guys REALLY have feather dusters?????

I'm far from being a domestic goddess and don't have a feather duster - so I buy the feathers on a stick from the pet store and my cats love to play with them. Just last night we had our first decent rain in a few months, and Quincy, our guy that loves the great outdoors, developed cabin-fever. It was so funny because he was just unable to comprehend what had happened to his beautiful DRY outdoor surroundings

He usually isn't interested in the feather stick, but I decided to give it a try because he seemed so forlorn. He just loved it. He's a bit of a hunter, so he didn't just play with the feather-stick, he attacked it like it was serious prey. He'd swipe it with his paw and immediately scoop it into his mouth.

Then he tired - so I though, "game over" and I left him and the feather-stick in the living room while I went to work on dinner in the kitchen. I then heard some noise and peaked back into the living room to see him "hunting" his feather-stick. He stalked it. He ran around the couch in order to sneak back up and get it. He ran down the hallway and back in order to attack it. He laid in wait for it and then pounced on it.

He then sat down next to it, his appetite sated, looking as contented as can be.
