The Oregon Humane Society has set up a playroom where you can log in and control robotic toys for real cats to play with. And of course being real cats they sometimes simply ignore them, but the idea is so cool I've been watching for about 30 minutes. Well, if I wanted to play I have my own bundle of fur and claws who is happy to indulge me.

Here you are. Just join the queue if you want to control the toys, the waiting time is also shown. Oh and there's a small live chat box to the side if you want to talk to other catlovers while you wait (or while the cats wait).

I succeeded in interrupting the black cat from his dinner. But all he did was look up and over his shoulder at the toy. And then I think I gave the tabby a shock, as he was sniffing one of the toys when I activated it . He gave a little jump and then just walked away. This is such a cool idea, but Im wondering if they aren't getting a little blase with the whole thing .
