I'm looking at this big fish that flops. Has a motion detector. If the cat walks by it flops.
Problem is that I don't know if she would like it or how long it would last.
She likes the carrot. Only lasts 4 days. All the other toys she ignores. I throw one across the room. She runs to it then walks away. The mouse on the string she likes but only if I am dangling above her. She gets it and drops it and walks away.
The flopping fish I think she would enjoy because it would start flopping when she gets near it.

The carrots sound like a good idea!

She loves the carrot. Stores are sold out. They are 3.50 each. I was buying two a week.
The flopping fish is 20 bucks. When you buy 1 you get 1 free. Which tells me they don't last long.
Plud, I am one that believes, if you can't buy it at Walmarts it's not worth buying.
But, I think I will try it anyways. Have to wait till the beginning of the month.

Well, Christmas day started out well.
The Floppy Fish was a big success as I thought would be. However, it lasted 2 hours.
He was having a ball with it. I'm guessing her objective was to stop it from flopping. He rolled completely around both directions. At one point he laid on his back with his legs straight up holding the floppy fish in the air. He also hugged it rolling. Biting it constantly.
The funny one. Why I said his objective was to stop it from floppy. He let it go and it was flopping on the floor. He calmly walks to it and sits on it. He just there sitting on it for a few minutes.
However, he lost interest in by afternoon. Hasn't looked at since. It flops all by itself.
The moving ball he didn't pay attention to it at all.
I have a pretty dull cat.
I have an adult cat, she is almost 5 years old. In the middle months we found a kitten. The kitten already feels great, the problem with digestion has been solved, and is actively growing. But the older cat does not want to accept him. Although the kitten behaves quite defiantly, it pounces on the cat, for which sometimes an adult cat hits him. Well, I think that after some time everything will get better, because we have a lot of places at home and animals do not interfere with each other. It remains to somehow protect the chinchillas, because they get very nervous when the cat is around.
I found the carrot. She's out tumbling with it right now.
As soon as she saw it, she went after it.
A carrot is a strange cat toy. Who would have thought of a carrot.
Thank you for all the replies.

What fun! That's wonderful!

I'm back!!!
The cat has become dangerous.
Had the cat for three months. Overall she has been a fun cat. A little destructive and bites when she wants attention.
However, lately (last three days) she is in attack mode. Can't get near her. I pet her and she seems to like it. Then all of a sudden wham she bites.
Also noticed she is whipping her tail all the time. A show of anger.
Plus she hasn't destroyed the carrot. Usually last 4 days at the most. Almost untouched.
I am wondering if she is sick. She is eating normal and cat box activity seems normal.
.
Please give the vet a call, as soon as you can. Something is going on with her, whether physically or behaviorally. Has something changed in your household routine?
What with the Labor Day holiday, are the regular vets closed for the long weekend? Do they have an emergency number, or can you leave a message for them about what's going on and maybe someone checks the line who might call you back before Tuesday?
Meanwhile, I'd say give her some space. Keep up your regular routine of feeding and scooping the litter and cleaning things up, as calmly as you can. Don't act scared of her, but let her approach you if she's friendly. And if she's in attack mode, stay out of her way. If you give a stern "NO!" and move away when she starts acting up, will she hold back?
I wish I could wave my magic wand and make things all better! My kitty Sparkler and I are sending along loads of loving good wishes and warm healing energies to you both. Thank you so very much, from the bottoms of our hearts, for bringing this scared girl in, welcoming her Home and working so hard with her and loving her. Blessings to you all.

I gave Lily's arse a wee scrub today....she took it like a champ!!😻😻 She seems to avoid that area lately. Can't say as I blames her 😬🙈. I'm pretty sure after a couple days off, licking your own arse, pretty unpleasant.
My cat made his first kill last night.
A SUPERIOR hunter.
Woke up and found a dead mouse proudly displayed.
Going out today and buying two trophies.
1 - Precision Leeper
2 - Superior Hunter

Update
Kitty Face is still biting. But, getting used to. I heal fast.
New problem.
This one is strange.
She likes to play with plastic bags. These are bags you get at the corner stores.
First, when I come back from the store she has to inspect the bag contents.
Then she rolls around with it for a while.
One day she stuck her head though the hand hold. It got stuck. He couldn't get it off. She went into a panic. I rescued her. She is forever grateful. Now if I leave the house I make sure there is no bags laying around. She continues to play with the bags.
Now for the strange problem.
I'm watching TV. In front of me the cat is playing with a bag. Seemed to be having a great time.
Then she started to do something strange. She started flattering the bag with her paws and teeth. It was totally flat on the floor. Then she sits on it. Well, I thought she was sittin. I noticed her butt was off the floor. But almost there. She was peeing on the bag.
This was the first time she did this. Never found a wet bag before.
The cat box was in the same room and clean.
Now she can't play with the bags.

BTW - Today's Cat of the day Vincent Price 10/31/2020 is an exact duplicate of Kitty Face.
.
I have heard of cats doing this before - I think it's something about the smell of the plastic used in some bags that screams, "Pee on Me!" to cats! Well, best keep them away from her for now, anyway - safer for everyone concerned.
