Cat Tail

"Cat Tail" is a test of skill and also a favorite past-time of Alexa's. It requires nothing more than mild cooperation from the target cat, because the sweet baby is usually game. The consequences for the cat are not so dire as to promote complete avoidance. Sasha basically saunters just beyond the babies reach, sits where the baby can see her, and the contest begins. As evidenced in the videos, the cat usually knows when to accelerate the speed of the tail swish to avoid being caught. Sometimes, however, the sweet baby gets it right. She really yanks on the tail in one instance, but chooses to attempt to devour the tail in the other clip. These cracked me up while I was shooting them, as you can hear.
