Why, you get him what he wants -- a robot to chase the cats with! Here's the link to the bot at Surveyor Corporation.

This little bot is very cute-- even the cats were amused.

I wish I could have gotten a shot of the robot running up against the cats...

The bot has laser eyes, which Ginger really loves. She's definitely a laser-dot chasin' cat.

Jalinda wasn't very amused by the bot. This is the only picture I got. After this, she refused to be in the same room!

Kitty Bot! I love it! One question though - how much does therapy for cats cost?

Kitty therapy?? That presumes that "normal cat" isn't an oxymoron!!

Has he tried the little indoor RC helicopters on the cats yet? One of ours just leaves the room - she can't stand the noise. The other one has made some incredible leaps in the air trying to catch that bumblebee.

ooo! good idea. Especially if the RM could mount a camera on it!

Thanks for the gift idea, Elizabeth!!
