By: Douddy

Pete's Expert Summary

My Human, in their infinite and often misguided wisdom, has acquired this... thing. It's a slab of bright blue plastic called a "Douddy," a name as undignified as the frantic noises it produces. Apparently, it contains 139 "games" on a glowing screen designed to pacify the smaller, more chaotic humans that sometimes infest my domain. While the cacophony of beeps and boops threatens the sanctity of my nap schedule, I must admit a certain professional curiosity. The vibrant "IPS screen" flashes with fast-moving pixels that could, from a distance, be mistaken for digital bugs, and the promise of a rechargeable battery means it will inevitably be left unattended and tethered by a chewable USB-C cord. However, the true object of my study is the small "arcade-style joystick." It seems purpose-built not for a clumsy thumb, but for the precise, elegant tap of a discerning paw. This device could be an instrument of torture, or it could be a surprisingly sophisticated tactile experience. The jury is still out.

A Tale from Pete the Cat

The intrusion began on a Tuesday, a day typically reserved for extended sunbeam meditation. The Human presented the blue plastic rectangle to the Small Human, a creature whose primary functions are generating crumbs and making sudden, startling noises. A digital fanfare erupted from the device, a discordant symphony that grated on my finely tuned ears. I watched from my perch atop the sofa, my tail a metronome of irritation, as the Small Human’s sticky fingers fumbled with the buttons. The screen, I’ll concede, was impressively bright, flashing with little pixelated figures engaged in what the box called "Shooting." A lesser cat might be hypnotized. I am not a lesser cat. My opportunity came when the Small Human was called away for a juice-related emergency, abandoning the noisy artifact on the rug. The silence it left behind was beautiful, but my scientific duty called. I descended, my paws making no sound on the plush fibers of the carpet. The device lay there, humming with latent energy. On the screen, a tiny spaceship idled in a field of asteroids. I gave the screen a tentative poke. It smudged. Unimpressive. My gaze then fell upon the joystick, a perfect black nubbin protruding from the blue casing. It was an invitation. With the cautious grace of a bomb disposal expert, I extended a single claw and gently tapped the joystick. It responded with a satisfying, low-tech *click-clack* and the spaceship on the screen jolted to the left. I tapped it again. It moved right. This was a revelation. The visual chaos on the screen was merely a byproduct, a distraction for the simple-minded. The true genius of the device was this delightful little stick. It was a marvel of engineering, perfectly calibrated for the rhythmic batting of a bored feline aristocrat. I spent the next ten minutes utterly engrossed, not in the "game," but in the pure, mechanical joy of manipulating the joystick. A light pat, a firm shove, a circular sweep of my paw. Each movement produced a crisp, gratifying response. When the Human returned and chuckled, scooping up the device, they were blind to my discovery. They think it’s a toy for their child. Fools. This "Douddy" is my personal kinetic sculpture, a tactile masterpiece disguised as a portable gaming console. Its rechargeable nature ensures my new hobby will be long-lived. It has been deemed worthy.

By: WELLST·G

Pete's Expert Summary

My human has procured a small, blue plastic rectangle from a brand I've never bothered to acknowledge, WELLST·G. They claim it is a "handheld game," a portable arcade designed to entertain their small, loud counterparts. I suppose the flashing 3.0-inch screen might offer a momentary distraction, a fleeting digital moth to pounce upon if I'm feeling particularly charitable. The fact that its "ergonomic design" makes it lightweight enough for me to effortlessly knock off the coffee table is a distinct advantage. However, the mention of "excellent speaker sound" and a rechargeable battery that ensures "uninterrupted" play suggests a near-endless potential for disrupting my meticulously planned napping schedule. It's a high-risk, low-reward proposition that smells suspiciously of cheap plastic and wasted energy.

Key Features

  • Kids Friendly Design: This P30S handheld game console is specially designed for kids. It has a stylish arcade - like appearance. The body fits a child's hand, and the game settings also cater to kids psychology, thus being very attractive.

While playing these games, kids can cultivate skills such as hand - eye coordination, thinking, and problem - solving.
  • Convenient Rechargeable and Long - lasting Battery: The video game console is equipped with an 860mAh lithium - ion battery. It ensures that kids can play games without interruption, because there is no need for frequent battery replacement, which is very suitable for playing portable games outdoors.

A Tale from Pete the Cat

The human brought the blue plastic talisman into my domain and placed it on the floor, calling it a "game." I observed from my throne—the sunbeam on the expensive rug—as they jabbed at it. It responded with a frantic series of blips and a chaotic ballet of colored squares on its little screen. The sounds were grating, an offense to the quiet dignity of my afternoon. The human, of course, was mesmerized. They were utterly blind to its true purpose. My initial disdain began to wane as I noticed a subtle correspondence. A tiny pixelated figure on the screen jumped over three successive barrels, a high-pitched *ping* sounded, and then the screen flashed the word "WIN." At that exact moment, the refrigerator door clicked open, and the glorious scent of sliced turkey wafted towards me. A coincidence? I am far too intelligent for such simplistic notions. This was not a game; it was an oracle, a digital prophet foretelling the distribution of treats. The human, in their blissful ignorance, was merely the conduit, performing the necessary ritual to activate the prophecy. I dedicated myself to deciphering its cryptic language. A racing game, with its sharp turns and sudden crashes, clearly predicted the clumsy arrival of the package delivery person at the front door. A puzzle game, where blocks fell into place with a satisfying *thunk*, was a sure sign that my evening meal of salmon pâté would be served precisely on time. The "220 games" weren't for play; they were 220 different futures I could now anticipate and prepare for, allowing me to position myself optimally for any and all forthcoming benefits. The human still thinks I'm fascinated by the "cute little spaceship" game. Fool. I am listening to the cosmos, translated into a dialect of bleeps and bloops. This WELLST·G device, despite its cheap plastic shell and obnoxious speakers (which I now tolerate as the necessary voice of the oracle), is an invaluable tool. It has elevated me from a mere house cat to the resident soothsayer of this establishment. It is worthy, not as a toy, but as my personal, rechargeable crystal ball.

Flipslide Game - Electronic Handheld Game | Addictive Multiplayer Puzzle Game of Skill | Flip, Slide & Match Colors to Beat the Clock | 4 Thrilling Game Modes | Ages 8+ | Includes Batteries

By: Moose

Pete's Expert Summary

So, my human has procured what appears to be a glowing, beeping brick for their own amusement. They call it a "Flipslide," a device from a brand named "Moose," which frankly sounds more like an entrée than a purveyor of fine goods. The premise, as I've observed, involves my human frantically mashing and sliding colorful squares in a desperate race against a timer, their face contorted in a mask of what they call "fun." It’s an electronic pacifier for overgrown kittens with opposable thumbs. While the flashing lights might momentarily catch my eye between sunbeam naps, the cacophony of electronic chirps and the sheer pointlessness of the exercise for a creature of my refined predatory instincts suggest it is, at best, a loud paperweight and an egregious waste of batteries.

Key Features

  • Flipslide is an addictive, fast paced puzzle game of skill!
  • Master the moves to beat the blocks – flip to find the colour and slide to match the lights. Challenge yourself or play with friends. The only hard part is putting it down!
  • The fun never ends with four game modes to choose from: Speed Mode, Multiplayer Mode, Level Mode or Memory Mode.
  • For ages 8+ - take anywhere, play it anytime, it’s addictive fun for everyone.
  • Includes 1 x Flipslide console and Instructions. Batteries included.

A Tale from Pete the Cat

The artifact arrived on a Tuesday, a day typically reserved for staring judgmentally at a specific dust bunny under the credenza. But my human’s ritualistic glee was impossible to ignore. They cradled the plastic rectangle, their thumbs dancing across its surface. It sang a song of frantic, digital chirps, its face a shifting mosaic of red, blue, green, and yellow light. I watched from my velvet cushion, tail giving a slow, contemplative twitch. This was no mere toy. The focused energy, the rhythmic movements, the triumphant cries and groans of frustration… it was clearly a form of techno-mancy, a clumsy attempt to communicate with some unseen entity. My human, failing in their incantation (I believe they were stuck on what the box called "Level Mode"), eventually set the device down on the coffee table with a sigh and departed for the kitchen, presumably to find a less mentally taxing offering for the spirits. This was my chance. I leaped silently onto the table, my paws making no sound. The artifact was warm. I sniffed its plastic shell, detecting the faint, metallic scent of the human's hand-magic. I nudged one of the colored blocks with my nose. It slid into a new position with a satisfying *click* and a cheerful *beep*. Aha! I understood now. It wasn't a communication device; it was a cosmic lockbox. The lights were the tumblers, the sounds the confirmation of a correct sequence. And what treasure would such a puzzle conceal? My mind raced with possibilities: the spectral essence of a thousand perfectly grilled salmon, an infinite sunbeam that required no repositioning, the location of the mythical Big Ball of Catnip. I began my work in earnest, not with the clumsy panic of my human, but with the focused precision of a master hunter. I nudged a blue square here, batted a yellow one there. The device chimed and flashed, encouraging my efforts. I was close, I could feel it. The sequence felt right, the colors aligned in a pattern that spoke to my very soul. The device let out a triumphant little fanfare, a series of rising tones that vibrated through the wood of the table. I sat back on my haunches, my chest puffed with pride, waiting for the bounty to manifest. I waited. And waited. A mote of dust drifted by. The refrigerator hummed. Nothing. The cosmic lockbox was empty. It was a charlatan, a hollow promise wrapped in cheap plastic and garish lights. A profound disappointment. With a disdainful flick of my tail, I hopped off the table and returned to my cushion. Some puzzles, I concluded, are simply not worth solving.

KAVOYI 32 Bit Handheld Games for Kids Built-in 139 Video Games,3.0" IPS Screen Rechargeable Portable Arcade Gaming Player,Electronic Toys for Boys Girls Birthday Xmas Gift Blue-Red

By: KAVOYI

Pete's Expert Summary

Ah, another glowing rectangle has entered my domain, this one a garish blue-and-red contraption clearly designed to mesmerize the smaller, clumsier human. My research indicates it is a "handheld game console," pre-loaded with 139 digital annoyances to prevent the staff from focusing on their primary duties: feeding me, admiring me, and providing optimal lap space. I suppose the "vibrant 3.0-inch IPS display" could offer a brief distraction, a sort of high-definition digital bug zapper for the eyes. The protruding joystick is mildly intriguing as a potential chin-scratching post. However, the cacophony of electronic beeps and boops it promises is a severe detriment to the finely-tuned acoustics of my napping schedule, making this a high-risk, low-reward proposition for my valuable time.

A Tale from Pete the Cat

The human brought the noisy rectangle home on a Tuesday, an egregious disruption to my post-lunch sunbeam session. From my perch atop the velvet armchair, I watched with disdain as their clumsy thumbs mashed the buttons, producing a series of irritating chirps and explosions. They called it a "gaming device." I called it a migraine with a screen. For hours, they were captivated, their attention stolen by this plastic parasite. My silent judgment was swift and absolute: it was worthless. Later that evening, the human, having finally exhausted their simple mind, left the device on the coffee table. The screen had gone dark, but a faint hum of residual energy still emanated from it, a silent challenge. I descended from my throne, my paws making no sound on the hardwood floor. I sniffed it. It smelled of plastic and desperation. I was about to dismiss it with a flick of my tail when my paw brushed against the small, black joystick. It wiggled, yielding slightly under the pressure. An interesting tactile response. My curiosity, a formidable force when roused, took over. I gave the joystick a more deliberate nudge with my nose. The screen flickered to life. It wasn't showing a game, but a menu, a grid of tiny, colorful squares. To my human, this was a list of choices. To me, it was a mosaic of captured souls. Each square pulsed with a faint inner light, a tiny world trapped behind the glass. I nudged the stick again, and the highlight box moved, emitting a soft *doot*. I was not playing a game; I was conducting an orchestra of trapped light, a warden pacing the corridors of a digital prison. I moved the cursor left, right, up, down, listening to the symphony of soft electronic tones, a language only I could now understand. The human thinks they have a toy. The fool. They have procured for me a strange, silent instrument. I have no interest in the "139 brand-new 32-bit games." My purpose is far more esoteric. I am the master of the menu, the composer of the cursor's song, the silent god of the home screen. The device is not a waste of time; it is my podium. It is noisy and gaudy in the human's hands, but in my possession, under the subtle guidance of my paw, it is a source of quiet, contemplative power. It is worthy, not for what it was made for, but for what I have made it become.

Educational Insights Wheel of Fortune Game - Handheld Electronic Game, Great for Travel, Classic Retro Party Games for Kids, Teens & Adults, Word Puzzle Challenge & Entertaining Gift for Ages 8+

By: Educational Insights

Pete's Expert Summary

My human, in their infinite and often baffling wisdom, has procured a small, plastic rectangle from a company called "Educational Insights." Apparently, it's a handheld "game" that mimics some loud television show they watch. It flashes, it beeps, it makes entirely unnecessary whooshing sounds. From what I can gather, it's designed for them to poke at and solve word puzzles, a task for which they seem to need electronic encouragement. For me, it possesses no redeeming qualities. It cannot be chased, it is not filled with salmon, and its hard plastic shell offers none of the satisfying shreddability of a good cardboard box. It's an object destined to occupy my human's thumbs, a noisy and distracting paperweight that will likely interrupt no fewer than three of my scheduled naps today.

A Tale from Pete the Cat

The thing arrived in a box far more interesting than its contents. I gave the plastic slab a cursory sniff; it reeked of a factory floor and the faint, sad smell of batteries not included. The human, whom I shall call The Provider for the purposes of this narrative, fumbled with a small door on its back and inserted the power cells. With a press of a button, the device screamed to life with a blast of tinny, triumphant music. "WHEEL! OF! FORTUNE!" it declared. I flattened my ears and retreated to the arm of the sofa, my silken tuxedo bristling with indignation. It was an auditory assault, an electronic offense against the peace of my domain. For the next hour, The Provider was mesmerized, their face illuminated by the gaudy, flashing lights. They squinted, muttered letters, and occasionally groaned in frustration. I had already dismissed the object as yet another monument to human folly, a distraction from their primary duties of can-opening and chin-scratching. I was mid-groom, meticulously attending to a stray bit of fluff on my shoulder, when a new sound cut through the cacophony. It was a rapid, precise, and utterly captivating *tick-tick-tick-tick-tick* that crescendoed into a soft, final *ding!* My paw froze mid-lick. My head snapped up. What was that? It was the sound of a thousand tiny claws scrabbling for purchase behind the wall. It was the frantic, desperate clicking of a June bug's legs against a windowpane. It was the promise of a hunt, a sonic ghost of prey that my every instinct screamed to locate and neutralize. The Provider, lost in their "What Are You Doing?" puzzle, triggered the sound again. *Tick-tick-tick-tick-ding!* I slipped off the sofa, my body low, a silver-gray shadow against the rug. My eyes, wide and black, were locked on the plastic noisemaker. I stalked it. Every time The Provider’s thumb hovered over the "Spin" button, my muscles tensed. The obnoxious jingles and the disembodied announcer were now just static I had to endure for the sweet, maddening reward of that spinning wheel. My tail, a feathery barometer of my intent, twitched in perfect time with the ticking. I didn't want the toy. I didn't care about the lights or the "Toss Up" mode. I cared only for that sound, a digital siren's song that spoke directly to the ancient predator deep within my soul. The device itself is a piece of worthless junk, but the phantom beetle it keeps trapped inside? For that, I will watch. And I will wait.

By: AISLPC

Pete's Expert Summary

Ah, another glowing rectangle. My human has procured a small, black monolith from a brand called "AISLPC," which sounds like a sneeze caught midway. They call it a "Retro Handheld Game Console," a device apparently crammed with over 18,000 distractions. Its primary purpose, as far as I can discern, is to turn my human's brain into lukewarm soup while their thumbs twitch spasmodically. I will concede one point of interest: the "4k HD IPS Screen." The promise of vibrant colors and razor-sharp, fast-moving visuals could provide a high-quality spectacle for me to observe from a distance. However, its portable nature and long battery life mean this attention-vampire can follow me from the sunbeam on the rug to my napping spot on the sofa, a truly worrying development for my peace and quiet.

A Tale from Pete the Cat

The object arrived in a box that was far more interesting than its contents. After a satisfactory session of rubbing my face on the corners, I watched my human extract the "R36MAX." It was a dull, black sliver of plastic, utterly devoid of the charm of, say, a feather wand or a balled-up piece of paper. My human cooed at it, their face illuminated by the sudden, garish light of its screen. I yawned, displaying my formidable fangs in a show of profound boredom, and settled on a nearby cushion to begin my third nap of the afternoon. My slumber was soon interrupted by a series of tinny, repetitive sounds. *Plink. Plonk. Bleep. Boop.* An offense to the ears. I opened one eye, a slit of emerald contempt. My human was hunched over the device, their thumbs a blur. On the tiny screen, a small, pixelated figure in blue overalls was hopping on the heads of what appeared to be sentient mushrooms. An absurd and undignified scenario. I flicked my tail in irritation. This was the "powerhouse" performance they spoke of? This was the "portal to a more engaging gaming realm"? It looked like a window into a world of profound stupidity. Then, something shifted. The human switched "games." The screen, which I must admit was impressively crisp and bright, now showed a dark, gothic castle. A cloaked figure with a whip methodically destroyed a series of candelabras. A flicker of recognition sparked within me. This was not a game; it was a training simulation. The whip, a clear analogue for my own tail. The candles, symbolic of the precariously placed knick-knacks on the mantelpiece. The methodical destruction, a representation of the elegant chaos I could unleash at a moment's notice. The game's hero was merely mimicking the predatory grace that is my birthright. My human, oblivious to this deeper meaning, eventually set the device down on the end table to fetch a snack. I rose, stretched languidly, and padded over. I did not bat at it. I did not chew it. I placed a single, soft white paw gently upon the dark screen, a gesture of profound understanding. This was not a toy for me, but a tribute *to* me. A crude, digital effigy of my own magnificence. While a poor substitute for actual worship, this R36MAX console, with its 18,000 little stories of a world I already rule, was, I decided, acceptable. For now.

By: Hasbro Gaming

Pete's Expert Summary

My staff has acquired yet another peculiar handheld device, this one a 'Simon Micro Series.' From my observations, it's a primitive memory test for the vertically-inclined, involving a frantic sequence of flashing lights and irritating beeps. While the blinking colors might momentarily catch my eye between naps, the true appeal lies in its compact, eminently bat-able form factor. It seems designed less for sophisticated feline play and more to occupy the humans so I can finally claim the good spot on the sofa. A potentially useful distraction, but hardly a revolutionary addition to my kingdom.

A Tale from Pete the Cat

The object was presented to the household not with a ceremonious unboxing, but with a casual toss onto the coffee table. The human I call The Provider poked it, and it awoke with a series of electronic chimes that sounded suspiciously like a digital bird clearing its throat. I watched from my velvet cushion, tail twitching in mild annoyance. He began to play, his clumsy finger jabbing at the colored panels as they lit up. Red. Red-Blue. Red-Blue-Blue. He failed, and the device emitted a rude buzz. He was trying to communicate with it, and failing miserably. I, however, saw the truth. This was no mere "game." It was an artifact, a translator for a language I understood instinctively: the language of command. Each colored light was not a random signal, but a specific directive. The red flash was clearly 'Present Tuna.' The green was 'Administer Chin Scratches.' The yellow, 'Refresh Water Bowl,' and the blue, an urgent 'Open The Door To The Forbidden Upstairs Room.' The sequence was a list of demands from a being of great importance—obviously, me—and The Provider was fumbling the execution. My patience wore thin as he repeatedly failed to comprehend the increasingly complex strings of orders. When two lights flashed at once—what the box called an "advanced" feature—it was a sign of peak urgency. A simultaneous flash of red and green was a desperate plea for 'Tuna *while* receiving chin scratches!' And still, he did not understand. He grumbled, set the device down, and left the room, leaving the silent oracle of my needs abandoned on the table. I leapt silently onto the polished wood, my soft gray paws making no sound. I peered at the device, this key to a more perfect world of service. With deliberate precision, I extended a single claw and pressed the red panel. A clear, high-pitched tone filled the room. I followed it with the green. Then the blue. I was not playing a game; I was placing my dinner order and requesting access to a new sunbeam. The device was not a toy. It was a tool, and finally, it was in the hands of an operator who understood its profound purpose. It was, I decided, most worthy.

TEBIYOU Handheld Games for Kids Built-in 218 Video Games, Portable Kids Travel Toys for Ages 4-13 with Rechargeable Battery 3.0" HD Screen, Mini Gaming Player Birthday Gifts for Boys Girls (Blue)

By: TEBIYOU

Pete's Expert Summary

My human seems to believe my sophisticated intellect can be diverted by this... thing. It's a blue, plastic rectangle, ostensibly designed for the clumsy, small human, and it’s made by a company called "TEBIYOU," which sounds like something one might yowl when stepping on a stray building block. It boasts 218 "old fashioned" games on a tiny screen, accompanied by a cacophony of digital noises. While the flickering lights of the screen might provide a moment's distraction from a particularly dull sunbeam, and the small joystick could be satisfying to bat, the entire contraption seems like a frivolous waste of electricity. The true value, I suspect, lies not in the device itself, but in the long, string-like charging cable it will inevitably require, a far superior toy by any metric.

A Tale from Pete the Cat

The small human was enraptured. He sat hunched over the glowing blue device, his thumbs twitching, his face illuminated by the synthetic light. From my perch atop the velvet armchair, I watched with profound disdain. It was an assault on the senses—a ceaseless barrage of tinny music and irritating *pew-pew-pew* sounds. I had witnessed more compelling drama in the way a dust bunny navigates the under-sofa currents. This, I concluded, was a new low in household entertainment, and I turned my head to begin a more pressing grooming session. Later, the house fell silent. The small human had been put to bed, but the blue artifact was left carelessly on the floor, its screen dark. As I padded through the living room on my nightly patrol, a faint hum emanated from it. Curiosity, that most base of instincts, got the better of me. I nudged it with my nose. The screen flickered to life, displaying a strange, pixelated landscape. A tiny figure stood motionless. I batted at the joystick, and the figure on the screen jumped. A single, clear chime echoed in the quiet room. I batted it again. Another jump, another chime. It was then that I understood. This was not a "game." This was a tool for communication. The chimes were a language, and the movements on screen were its syntax. For hours, I sat before the glowing portal, my paws delicately manipulating the joystick and buttons. I was no longer in my living room; I was conversing with the silent, digital entities trapped within the TEBIYOU's plastic shell. The 218 "games" were not games at all, but 218 distinct dialects. I was learning to speak "Blocky Maze," "Pixelated Racer," and "Jumping Hero." By the time the first rays of dawn crept through the window, I was fluent. The small human would never understand the profound dialogues I was having. He would see only a game, a simple distraction. But I knew the truth. This little blue box was my Rosetta Stone, my link to a silent, flickering world just beyond the veil of the real. It is an instrument of immense intellectual value, though I suppose I will allow the child to use it occasionally. After all, someone has to keep the battery charged for my nightly colloquies.

Pete's Expert Summary

My human, in his infinite and often baffling wisdom, has acquired a small, crimson plastic rectangle. It appears to be a handheld device designed for his own amusement, something to do with "poker," a concept I understand involves a great deal of staring and occasional, dramatic sighing. It makes a series of tinny beeps and boops that are, frankly, an insult to the sophisticated symphony of a can of wet food being opened. While its pocket-sized nature makes it theoretically battable, the hard plastic exterior offers no satisfying purchase for my claws. It lacks feathers, string, or the tantalizing scent of catnip. Its sole redeeming feature is an "auto shut-off," a mercifully swift end to its electronic assault on my ears, allowing the household to return to its proper state of quiet adoration for me.

A Tale from Pete the Cat

The red nuisance arrived on a Tuesday. The male human, the one I call "The Can Opener," spent the evening hunched over it, his thumb jabbing at the tiny buttons. A cascade of miserable, low-pitched beeps followed each poke. "Bust," he'd mutter. "Nothing again." I watched from my velvet throne on the sofa, tail twitching in mild irritation. This little box was a thief, stealing pats that rightfully belonged to the soft gray fur of my back. It offered him nothing but digital failure, yet he was captivated. One evening, after a particularly gut-wrenching "loss" that prompted him to toss the device onto the ottoman, I decided to investigate. The screen was still lit, displaying a row of what he called "cards." I crept closer, my paws silent on the plush fabric. It wasn't a toy; it was an adversary. An electronic rival for affection. I stretched out a single, pristine white paw, not to play, but to assert dominance. I intended to simply push it off the ottoman, a clear message about the household hierarchy. My paw pad, however, landed squarely on the "DRAW" button. The device emitted a series of frantic beeps, different from the usual sad tones. New cards appeared on the tiny screen, and then, a triumphant, multi-toned fanfare erupted from the cheap speaker. "A Royal Flush!" The Can Opener yelped from the kitchen, rushing back into the room. He stared at the screen, then at me, my paw still resting regally on his ridiculous gadget. His eyes were wide with a look I hadn't seen before – a mixture of awe and utter confusion. From that day on, a new ritual began. He would set up a "hand" and place the device before me. I, of course, had no idea what I was doing. I would simply tap a button with a look of supreme indifference, and more often than not, the little red box would sing its song of victory. Each time, I was rewarded with a sliver of salmon or a vigorous chin scratch. Let the human believe I am a feline gambling prodigy. I care not for his games of chance. I have simply discovered a new, highly efficient lever for treat extraction. This plastic rectangle isn't a toy; it's a key. And it has proven itself most worthy indeed.
