refusing to surrender in defeat and accept that ol' smudge just wasn't the playful type and had no interest in her new toy, one recent evening the dad removed the circular scratcher from the toy, flipped it over, sprinkled it afresh and set it in the middle of the living room floor. After Smudge approached it and gave it a cautious initial sniff, the dad bubbled over with joy as he watched her plop herself atop the thing and lick it like a crazed lady cat. as she rubbed her chin and cheeks into the 'nip scented cardboard, the dad smiled, pleased with himself, snapping photo after photo like a proud pop.
Pleased with herself for making her dad happy and somewhat worn out after showing her playful side, smudge did what her dad says she does best.
Final Footnote: This last photo has nothing whatsoever to do with this post. The dad simply has an overabundance of pictures of Smudge sleeping and decided to use one here.

Know what you mean about not being enthusiastic about a new toy! Katie can ignore many if not the majority of those toys she gets in plenty..but as with last night...dangle a string in front of her...varooom! all over it.
It looks like you enjoyed your new scratcher a lot more this time, Smudge. Does nip give you the munchies? Flynn was like a ravenous lion after nip, and then he would sleep/crash out.
