iPad painting App for cats

[Hum]

Developer Little Hiccup has created a series of iPad apps designed to keep pets across the globe entertained and stimulated.

Its first App Game For Cats features a fast-moving mouse pointer which is said to appeal to their hunting instincts as they try to catch it.

It has been so popular that its creator TJ Fuller has followed up the App with a sequel named Paint For Cats.

Designed for the more artistic moggy, the App makes a colourful paw imprint when a cat touches the screen.

The App was recently tested at an animal shelter where it received a positive response, with bigger cats such as lions and tigers even taking to it. :huh:

Creator TJ Fuller said: 'I had seen so many YouTube videos of cats playing with iPads but of course they were playing games designed for humans.

'We took our beta version to the local animal shelter and let the cats there play with it.

'They all absolutely loved it so we knew we had something awesome. It was very heartwarming seeing the orphaned cats go crazy over our game.

'We were concerned that maybe the cats would scratch the screen, but it turned out that they don't even use their claws when they play. They just like to paw at it.'

He added: 'I would love to do a game for dogs but they generally don't react to that sort of stimuli like cats do. They are just not bothered, it would seem.'

Why do people use such lousy music when they make a video?

^ Probably to avoid royalties for good music. :laugh:
