Researchers found some cats like to play fetch, if their owners abide by their rules.
  • Researchers surveyed hundreds of people who have cats that play fetch.
  • Though the game is typically associated with dogs, some cats enjoy it, too.
  • They seem to like to play with toys, crumpled balls, and other light, carry-able objects.

Some cats might drop a dead animal at their owners' feet, but others bring their favorite toy in hopes the person will throw it. Much like dogs, some cats enjoy a game of fetch.
