    Default Help! My cats have taken over my tablet pc.

    In showing my dog sitter (guess she's a cat sitter now too) all the fun things my new tablet can do, so she can play with it when she's at the house, I downloaded cat games. Now, everytime I get the tablet, the cats climb up on me meowing because they want to play. I have to lock them out of the room to use it. Help! lol. My JRT can sit by and watch them play for a bit, but when a really big bug runs across the screen, he pounces on it, leaving doggy drool and possibly some snot behind.

    This is my first world problem.

    Default You have got to be kidding..

    Just get them a catnip mouse and step away from the technology, really.


    Cat games, jeez, I hope you didn't actually pay for the download.

    I don't have a tablet. My cell phone rings, no pictures, no internet, no voice mail, no kidding.


    My barn cats can kick your tablet playing indoor felines' butts.

    I'm still laughing and shaking my head.

    It was free..lol. I have barn kittehs too, but I'm scared to show them the crack. If they got together, they could start a mutiny.

    It's really kind of cute and would be a good game for very young children to help with motor skills. It's basically bug running across the screen that you have to splat. Once you splat them, then a different one runs across.


    It looks something like this: http://gamesforcats.com/ (spreading the crack)

    My cat loves my iPad. He plays GameforCats.

    That's awesome.

    You know, a game for cats played on a $200+ machine is a "bread and circuses" thing. (Cultural references: the fall of Rome was preceded by much partying all around). If we are on the same trajectory-- as the invention of this suggests-- why should the First World Cats get to party with us?

    Since the party isn't over yet, can you guys think of a better name for this? GameforCats doesn't do it, eh?
