How to Play Fighty Cat: A Tutorial

Steve has invented a game with Stewart. They play it together almost every night. Stewart knows that Only Daddy plays Fighty Cat. For this, I am grateful. However, Stewart will play a much milder version of this game with the Poodles.





Steve's Steps to Playing Fighty Cat:





1. Find a Willing Cat.

When Stewart is ready to play Fighty Cat, he comes and jumps on the bed by Steve and turns his tail to Steve - and twitches it so hard that it makes a loud THUMP on the bed!

2. Human Participant must have a high tolerance for pain and the sight of blood - his own.

This was the end of Round One.

3. Irritate Cat from Step 1 until Cat turns around and bites Human Participant.







4. When Cat relaxes, repeat step 3.




5. Continue until Cat is too worn out to continue the game or Human Participant's hand is hanging by sinews.








I honestly can say, I have yet to see the appeal of Fighty Cat. But evidently Steve and Stewart enjoy it, because they play it every single night.

While Steve and Stewart were engaged in this particularly rousing game of Fighty Cat, Steve was so oblivious to the fact that he was receiving a pedicure - complete with "clear coat." Gee, thanks, Morgan.

This is in the middle of playing Fighty Cat. He knows when to turn it off and when to turn it on.

That doesn't look like a Fighty Cat to me!
