Techno Cat

Cinnamon, our 4-year old cat, has found the value of technology. My daughter, Alli, just got one of those fancy cell phones that gets the internet. What an expensive cat toy!

She rips an aquarium scene or singing birds from the internet into the phone and puts the phone on the floor. Cinnamon has learned that if she puts her paw on the touch-screen, the picture will change (the birds fly away or the fish swim away). She plays with the phone for several hours a week, stepping on the touch screen or batting the phone around the room. Never did I dream of buying a $200 cat toy!
