Trackball Games

Cupcake: The trackball toy is on the table. This is fun!

Newton: That looks dangerous.

Cupcake: Hi, Mr. Newton. It’s OK. I’m a grownup cat now, so I can be up on the table in the sunroom.

Newton: You might be full-grown, but you aren’t grown up. Trust me, kid. It’s really looking dangerous. 

Cupcake: The ball won’t come back. Can you push it back to me?

Newton: Not to say I told you so or anything.

Cupcake: Uh-oh.

    Cupcake, you may be “grown up,” but you still have kitten energy!

    Cupcake, you have so much energy and have a talent for quickly switching gears to whatever is the funest or whatever will produce the most positive outcome for you. This is a rare skill that most do not master. Both for both animals and peeps. If something is not going our way, look at the way IT IS GOING and take advantage of that to twist it around to what you need.

    You needed to play and the ball roller wasn’t cooperating so when Newton ran you took advantage of that and switched to playing chase! Good job, Cupcake. You are very smart!
