Play Ball!

Charlie likes to play ball, especially in the house. In addition to 'Retrieve the ball', he is learning 'Retrieve one ball and dribble another' and 'Catch the ball'.

I almost didn't believe 'Catch the ball' when I first saw it - - I half expected the ball to bounce off his nose. But he catches it! Well... he tries. And sometimes succeeds, as you can see (no, this was not staged; this is Charlie in action).


Eye on the ball...


Got it!

Charlie, I'm glad you can catch. You are pretty young to have such skill!

I don't catch very well myself, but I blame it on my mom's poor tossing technique. She's going to blind me one of these days!

Wow - you're really good at catch! We're learning how to fetch...but catching is hard. Maybe if they used REAL mice....

Splash - I decided to keep my mom guessing and let the ball just bounce off my nose. That got me a lot of treats!

Little kittens - it was catching treats that got me interested in catching balls, so tell your mom to let those mice fly!
