Grab your computer mouse and play with a cat

This Monday, Jan. 31, 2011 photo shows a cat sitting next to a video camera in the cat play room at the Oregon Humane Society in Portland, Ore. More than 90,000 cat lovers from 112 countries have played with the kittens at the Oregon Humane Society since September _ wiggling and yanking on kitty toys at the shelter's play room. You'd think such a large number of people would be tripping over each other at the shelter. But these visits are by remote, thanks to real-time technology that lets fans of felines use their computers to manipulate the toys, which dangle from robotic arms. (AP Photo/Rick Bowmer)
