Agato Savannahs Inara Bounces OFF Walls

That is great! Chongo would do the same thing and I worked with him at it until he would land 180 degrees opposite of where he started, pushing hard off the wall. I just thought it was an SV thing but neither monte or Dino will perform like that.
That's cool John! I never tried that with my cats... Siri jumps up and turns off the lights via the light switch, so maybe I'll see if she can do it...

We used to spend a lot of time doing it in a somewhat confined hallway. He was quite the leaper, even after his hip injury healed and would go at it as long as I would wave a feather wand. Trish would get upset at times he would do a full 360 and he was so sprawled out that he would often land a little bit awkward.

Along came Monte, who liked to jump straight up for a feather wand, and a dejected Chongo would drop his head and walk away.

Always felt bad about something encroaching on that little activity we shared, just hoped he would some day feel comfortable enough with Monte where he wasn't feeling hurt when we played.

I have a similar issue that I have yet to resolve. Jammu is very dominant to Rafiki and when he shows up, she will walk away from whatever play activity we were having. I even tried closing the door and having my hubby play with him in a different room or on a different floor. She constantly looks towards the door and will stop playing if he is out there. :( If anyone has suggestions, I would appreciate it!
