Depends on the cat too. I've got one right now that only wants to chase, not catch. He doesn't care about catching the feather on the string, or the toy that I throw, he just wants an excuse to go zoom.

It'd be nice if he could figure out how to fetch though. I'll throw a toy, and he'll go racing after it, but then when he gets to it he just comes back to me so I can throw another one.

One of mine. She's only interested as long as it's moving. I once woke up to her with a mouse in her mouth, then she dropped it because it wasn't doing anything.

The mouse was safely corraled into a tshirt and let outside. His siblings were less fortunate and met the elder floof who is part maine coon and all murder machine.
