Playing ball with our kitties - Monica Querrien - 04-25-2011 10:22 AM
First of all, I want to say that I LOVE this new feature! I always wanted to interact more with my pets ^^ Now, if only my friends can play with them too...hehe.
One thing though. After playing with my cats, I happened to look in my inventory some time later and found that I had 10 balls! Is this normal? After each throw/retrieve I would click on the rezzed ball to start the animation again. Was I supposed to attach the ball in my inventory?

This appears to be an issue of how SL handles what is going on when you play with the kitty (the ball specifically).
(warning: the info below kinda breaks the fantasy up, so don't read if you aren't sure you want to know the non-fantasy side of how the kitties work)
I'm not perfectly sure, but I believe that this is not a bug, but has to do with the fact that you cannot have something attached to your avatar without it being in your inventory.
In order to play with the kitty, you have to have the ball attached, so you wind up with a copy of it in your inventory each time you throw it.
I believe this is something that is unavoidable due to the restrictions of SL's script language and permissions.
