Cat Chart

I don’t know that I’ve ever met a cat that didn’t do this when I sit down on the floor. To keep Talore in range of petting I usually end up holding her in my lap if I’m sitting on the floor.

The batteries for the second laser pointer are now dead to the point that Talore doesn’t always notice the dot, and when she does sometimes she just looks up at me like “That’s all you’ve got?”

That’s all that’s actually in it, so I’ll be going to Radio Shack soon and getting a battery holder, then electrical taping the electronics to it and wiring it up to 3 batteries.

I also got a cat toy today that’s just a ball of compressed cat nip. Talore has attacked it, but she hasn’t pushed it around and played with it much like I was hoping she would (especially since she doesn’t have a laser dot to chase).

Laser Pointer Video

I put the cat bed that Talore refuses to use in the middle of the floor last night to see if the catnip would still catch Talore’s attention.  It does occasionally, but the low wall apparently makes the perfect spot to hide behind while stalking the laser pointer.  Here’s a video (taken in low light of course) from my phone.  I had to upload to youtube because wordpress wouldn’t take the format the video was recorded in.

Android app Test

Testing the Android WordPress app (and getting used to the keyboard).

Attached should be a sample flash picture taken on my phone.  I tried a video but my blog didn’t like the file format.

Looking at the picture I probably shouldn’t have used the zoom on it, but considering how dark the room was it didn’t turn out too badly for a cell phone camera.
