Forgive the horrendous pic quality. I'm overdue for a new phone. We got her from the Humane Society. A missing eye made her an unlikely candidate for adoption. I named her Polyphemus and she took to "Polly" in a flash. I had cats all my life but she’s the first to come to her name. She also brings her favorite toy (a shoestring) to me and asks to play. Another first. Also, I taught her to sit up and beg on a whim. I've seen videos of cats performing amazing tricks never had one who made me think "I bet she could do that."
BTW, the shoestring thing is all her doing not mine. Polly has a boatload of high-dollar cat toys!
Yep - My cats' two favorite toys are a shoestring and also a tin foil ball. My old maine coon would sit on command, come when I called her, and walk on a leash. I've got some photos of that somewhere. She was a super cool cat. Died of cancer about 3 years ago.
Sorry to hear that. Hurts like hell to lose them. Each time that's happened I've said "that’s it, never again." Then inevitably another one finds its way into our family.

New mission for Polly - walk on a leash!
