The box game

I brought home this box with little holes at the bottom and Bandit created this "box game" yesterday.  They all had a ball before I took Bandit to Wani's house. 

It was all quiet last night when I came home after rehoming Bandit, but this morning, Xiao Li and Teddybear played the game again. 

Here's how the game is played:

One cat goes into the box.

The other waits patiently for "something to happen"...

Here it comes, here it comes....it's the paw coming through the hole.  

Grab the paw as it comes out!

Grab it!  Don't let it go.

Or, you can jump up and grab the whole cat instead of the paw!

Now you come down, it's my turn to get into the box...

It never fails to amaze me how intelligent cats can be.  They create their own rules and play their own games by using the simplest things around the house.  Who needs expensive toys when you can have so much fun with just an old discarded box with holes in it!
