I had to dance them a little bit. At first Brisket didn't seem interested, but then the rat pup fell off my tweezers and when I went back to grab it, he pounced on it. He did get the back end of it, but he managed to get it down. Kitty went into a ball and I had to coax her to stick her head out a bit. Then I danced it right in front of her nose a then she slammed it. It was a good feeling.
