Melissa here.
 
The SO went out and bought a cat toy for the kids - a long, slender wire
with a 5" long strip of black fur that dangles from the end, kinda about
twinkie-sized.  anyway, it's rabbit fur or some such, and Noodle and Friday
go bonkers over chasing and fighting it.  Anyway, I was sitting on the floor
holding the end fuzzy bit in one hand while talking to my roommate, and
Noodle starts creeping up on me very, very slowly - watching my eyes the
entire time.  He got up to my hand, slowly took the fuzzy toy in mouth, and
then slooooooooowly started backing away and drawing it out of my hand.  It
was hysterical!  The slow stalk and slow retreat, as though i wouldnt notice
if he werent moving quickly - as soon as i looked at him and started
laughing, he BOLTED with it.  Stinker.  :)
