2. Cat rousting time,

Some time I just get Bob and Andrew up from the bed, just because I can. Kinda like the cold nose in the face at 2 AM drill they sometimes pull.

5. Get something like this

And wave it back and forth. They'll be jumping in the air in no time. The old fat ones will be real cute too, they'll lie down and bat at it.

6. Pets react to the atmosphere

in the home where they live. If they are boring, it is because they are bored. There is nothing to stimulate them. They take their cues from you. Have you considered that they may be just as bored with you as you are with them?

You don't say if the pets are dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, whatever. If they are dogs, take them out to play more often and allow them to run.

If they are cats, get them toys to play with.

If they are birds capable of speech, teach them to talk and you too will be amused.

If you increase the energy levels in the home, the energy levels of you and your pets will also increase and you'll have more fun.

7. They should hang out with these pets.

They know how to have a good time. :shrug:

14. "feed the small animals to the larger ones"

Well, not really. But this quote was made by the Assistant Director of the Baltimore Zoo in about 1975 during a municipal strike when asked by the media what would be done with the animal keepers out on strike. Brilliant PR. The union gave us zoo keepers special dispensation to work light duty(animal maintenance only).

15. Garden hose definitely the garden hose
