We know that house pets are generally attracted to balls.
Rolling a ball across the floor is highly similar to the scampering movement made by prey animals. This then triggers your pet’s predator tendencies and they will run after the ball.
Hi! I’m SmudgeBall™
I hear humans love cats. I'm not sure why - they seem very scary to me so I just keep running away from them until I'm sleepy and tired. SmudgeBall™ is perfect if you want to try to stimulate them and help evoke their natural instincts and give them a much needed physical exercise.
And I can see...
Anyway, I need to thank the human who made me for giving me situational awareness so that I don't keep banging around and getting stuck all the time. Cats are smart, so I need to be smarter than them!
I can get wet sometimes
One time I ended up in a huge water bowl. I think cats come there often and lick the water for some reason. I'm not sure why - water is bad for your circuits, but thank god I can survive a splash or two. They keep telling me to stay away from the water though if it ends up penetrating my skin - I'm toast. Literally.
