I think throwing treats would have the same effect but not ideal when Oliver needs to lose a little weight  :-[

Unfortunately I highly doubt the treat hurling technique would work with Oliver... when he misses and drops his whiskas temptations while sat on a chair, he remains immobile with that look which tells me "Mum, look my treat went on the floor, go get it."  :shocked:

His laziness is quite beyond hope. :tired:

Would love to see him in a trial with some doggies, I reckon they'd have no chance!  :wow: :Luv2: :Luv2:

Please consider the harder to home cats in rescue.

Very impressive... Riley can teach a lesson or two to Oliver, who was ordered to lose 2kg+ by the veterinarian last week, we were just wondering if there was an agility course for cats!!  What is the object that appears in front just before he jumps though, does it play a role for his stunt?

Hannah hit the nail on the head - it's a gun that fires spongy bullets. It makes the 'click-clock' noise when you reload it and and the 'pwow' noise when you fire it. It did come with four spongy bullets but I can only find two after the boys have chased them under the furniture  :innocent:

I think throwing treats would have the same effect but not ideal when Oliver needs to lose a little weight  :-[

are you shooting him to make him jump helen!?!?!?   :shocked:

he's so handsome  :Luv:

Not quite - he's chasing the bullets! He has no fear  :naughty:

I've always thought Riley's marking were like a border collie, here is is showing that he is indeed 1/3 border collie!  :naughty: He's jumping the length of two cubes back to back, next step is two stacked cubes but he keeps sneaking through the gap rather than jumping it  :tired:
