Smokey invented a new game Sunday afternoon.
He removed the ball from the Starchaser in one room and rolled it to the living room, carefully placing it into the track of a different Starchaser!
Once I realized what he was doing, I snapped the second ball into the track. When I did that, he went into a frenzy (as only Smokey can) of chattering and pushing the balls around. He devised all sorts of plays... not unlike pools shots.
Is he not a clever, genius cat, that Smokey???
Here Sol demonstrates the technique of Smokey Starchaser... it's a whole new game!
By the time I got the camera, Smokey was resting, so Sol was playing, well, solitaire!
Exciting, isn't it?
Smokey would like his furriends to be able to play Smokey Starchaser.
He is giving away a Regulation Smokey Starchaser
-- which is a standard Starchaser plus an extra LED ball --
to the contest winner.

Those Starchasers look totally fun! I'd definitely love one of those! I am glad to hear that KC is feeling better - keep us posted!
Sparkle, thanks for being the furrst commenter.
They are more fun than anything, just as they are. But add that second ball al la Smokey... that's me... and it is a whole new game. And with two or more cats, it's insane.
Love & Purrs,
Smokey
pee ess: Yes, KC has improved, not a lot, but slightly. We are all very worried. Someone mentioned using something like an inhaler, on one of the comments, they left a link. We are following up on that as soon as we can later today.
Oh, that looks like a furry fun game!!
We're purring that KC continues to feel better & is all well soon.
That looks fantastic! Please enter me for the contest!
Dearest love, hugs and soft purrs and snuggles for KC.

Those look like fun!
We hope KC feels better soon. Being sick isn't any fun and it scares your Mom.

We are all glad to hear that you are feeling a little better. Sending purrs and purrayers that you are healthy and back to your lovable self soon.
Smokey,
That is a cool toy, I cna just imagine us kitties playing with it all night and driving Bob and Monika crazy.
*wicked evil grin*
Sure glad to hear that KC is feeling better. What good news.
We would love to be in the drawing for the starchaser. That looks like total fun.
We are sending lots of purrs for KC and the donkeys are still crossing their hooves. They love KC. So please get better KC. Take care.
We are delighted to hear KC is feeling a bit better although we hope she soon feels much better.
Your starchaser game looks great - but Smokey is so clever at making it more enjoyable.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx

Pee Ess: Can Miss FaithBoo come ofur and playplayplay and snugglesnugglesnuggle? ::blushblushblush::
What a CLEVER guy Smokey is! Absolutely brilliant!! We are VERY impressed!! We absolutely MUST get a couple of those starchasers and see if Audace and/or Ruse manage to think up their own game. Fascinating!!
Purrrrrrrrrrrssssssssssss..... to everyone in the Sherwood household!
Love ... all of us!
Ribbons are the best! I had so much fun! I'm coming over again!
Oh and my stupid OTW thinks she forgot to tell your mom the Big One finally went to the place where the Man in the Bloo Shorts brings the packages and got the package. More than a week ago. She forgot to take pictures when I opened it too. And still isn't giving me extra gooshy fuds to make up for it no matter how balefully I stare at her. Sigh. Good wenches are so had to find.
That looks like a great game, Smokey! My OTW once put a jingle ball in our regular old rolly ball thing, and Tenzing played with it a bit, but he's got nothing but he's got floof for brains and didn't come up with any fun games!
PURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
~Jack
We're very glad KC is feeling better and continue to purr for her!
Count us in on the draw, if kitties outside the US (i.e. Canada) can play.
We never saw the Starchaser game before and it looks like so much fun! We love to go insane!
We are hoping KC is feeling better and continues to do so. (((HUGS))) and purrs.
Hurrah for KC! Any little improvement is good. Mommy is in lurve with Smokeey, he looks like her snuggle boy Rupert.
Please enter us in the draw, that toy looks like a BLAST!
That sounds like so much fun!
I'll continue purring for KC to get better. I'm slowing down quite a bit and I have my mom worried.
Please enter me in the contest.

Oh, that looks like so much fun!!!!!!! We would love to be registered for a Starchaser.

KC, we have been purraying for you, and we have a button on our blog asking people to purray for you...andn your mama because of her migraines.
We purray you are doing ok ML, as this heavy oppressing weather is making all of our mama's joints ache so badly, and she's concerned about you and migraines.
Love, love, love from all of us.
That is cool what Smokey does! Hope KC feels better.
Can you please enter me in the contest? Those look so fun. And Smokey is a genius!

Congratz, Smokey. You're one smart cat!!

mom was up LATE last night and kept checking waiting for this post : ) she is ALL about mancat postsings & stuff since Sir Stripes is our one and only in a house of three lady cats.
So she zommed over here today to check it out...
Smokey is a totoally clever kitty. HE figured out a way to increase the fun-o-meter! i bet he a cat that thinks outside the box : ) as most of us MANCATS are ; ) we like to figure out new ways to tinker with things and see what will happen.
we also are sending PURRS to KC!! to continue to feel better.
so, this starchaser funland looks fun and we leave our comment, for our MANCAT. but if we gets it ALL kitties will enjoy, for sure.
good luck to all.
Wow, those Starchasers look extra special. We have at turbo track but it doesn't light up like that!
Smokey sure is an intelligent kitty if he knew he could take the ball from one Starchaser and put it in the other! It must have been lots of fun rolling it along the way, too. Kudos to you Smokey!
We're purring for KC to keep improving and hopefully she'll be 100 PURRcent very soon.
Wow! I can get the ball OUT of our Turbo Trak, but I sure cant get it back IN. Smokey, you are a genius!
I sure would like to try that Starchaser.
Iza
We all hope KC feels better soon...
We are purring for all of you KC!!!
That Starchaser game sure looks fun! Way to create a new game Smokey!!!
Oh that looks like good fun. We'd love to join in but we won't as we live in Malaysia and the postage costs would kill you. Plus, our post office tends to hold on to stuff they like.
We'll follow you later today once we get our work done.
That lookslike fun. Count us in!
Glad KC is doing OK and Dad Charley too.
We think those starchasers look like fun! We'd love to be entered in Smokey's contest. :)
We are glad KC is showing some improvement, however small. We will take any positive news you can provide. We will keep purring and praying our bestest purrs and prayers for our sweet friend KC.
We will keep purring for KC to feel better and breathe with ease. And Smokey, you are very clever, it was cool that you invented theese game. It is a most excellent prize, looks VERY exciting so we would like to be entered into the contest please.
Star chasers are a lot of fun and so are turbo tracks. We love both of ours.
That is one cool toy Smokey!! We are so glad you invented it and it looks like loads of fun!! We would love to have one!!
Purrrrs and prayers to KC to feel 100% better!!
((((((HUGGGGGSSSSSS)))))) to you all!
Your Austin furiends,
Oh, oh, oh, we play that game too! Eh, he, we used to, actually, since Gracie stole our turboscratcher and took it to her quarters! Bad, Bad Gracie! We would love to have another one, so that way Gracie can have one, and we can have another one... We miss playing with it SO much!!! Our favorite toy EVER!
Hoping KC and daddy Charley are feeling all better by now!

Smokey
"We are all still purring for KC!! And our Feeders are still praying! We'll also have some naps for her. What a cool game Smokey invented. Mom put a second ball in one of our games but none of ours look like those. Do they have lights in them??"
the Teenage Mutant Ninja Kitty Horde & their Feeders
Audrey raises a paw, "Can I be in the drawing for a Starchaser?? It looks like fun and most of the other toys in the house smell like stinky bo-oys!"
Smokey is a genious!!!!!!
We love you!
WHOA! We've never seen anything like that - cool!!! And good for you, improving on it too!
Be well KC, and we hope your mommy's migraine thingy is gone too. *purrrrrrrrrrrr*
We heard your feeling poorly, so please take my healing purrs and Mom's hugs!
Ok you talked us into it! We're putting our paws in the circle - but we're sort of hoping not to win as we live so far away....
KC, we are glad to hear that you are feeling a bit better. Now we just have to get your mama over her headaches.
Smokey, your new toy looks like lots of fun. We hope you are having tons of fun playing with it.
Cody and Gracie
Oh geez!! Mom posted as The Tuxedo Gang instead of us!!! Hehehehehe!!
Your new toy invention looks cool Smokey!! And we would like to be entered in the ManCat Contest!!
((((((hugggssssss)))))) and purrs from your FROZEN Austin furiends,
Hey, looks like a fun game! Glad to hear that KC is better. Happy to say that I am too, slowly. Granny cats take longer to recover.
Please count us in on the contest - if a cat family who reads but does not blog can play.

We adore Our Starchaser, which We do believe was a gift from your Mum Smokey!
It is a favourite of all the Royals, especially the scratchy middle! HRH Emo Mari can be heard batting the balls about the track in the early morn!
We would like to enter the contest, but if selected winners, please can the favoured toy/exercise unit be given to a kitteh in need? HM Queen Emily would be so pleased!
Thank you Smokey, dearest!
Purrs and Headbutts to your Mum and Dadlings for us!
