Cat that plays fetch
One of our cats plays fetch. Proper fetch. You throw his soft ball, he chases it, retrieves it and returns it to where you are and waits patiently for you to throw it again. If he had his way we would be doing it all day/night. But he is a cat. Does yours do similar?

I just got in from work and found the fridge open and a chicken breast pack on the floor (there was 1 left in there).

Magnets for cat flaps.
We finally decided to get a cat flap and because of the huge population of cats in our area chose one that needs a magnet to get in. Think they are made by staywell.
