RE: Play bugs
Ack, I never thought about how the ball moves. Of course it's physical. *headdesk*
I wonder, then, if some other factor could be built in that would allow playing ball in small areas. Brainstorming: Perhaps the ball not rolling as fast or as far if the cat's range is below certain thresholds? Or the ball rolling back of its own volition if nothing has moved it for some period of time? --That wouldn't help if the ball falls out of the upper floor of a house, but it might be an improvement for someone who keeps their cats in a level area. Or maybe if the cat's range is small use something that doesn't act exactly like a ball but can be batted very short distances by the cat's paws, like a soft toy mouse.
