Have you seen the Friskies “Will Kitty Play With It” campaign? There was a series of videos in which a household item was revealed to a cat to see whether he would play with it. Below is one of the videos:

Well, I was supposed to be part of the campaign, but everything went wrong for me! I didn’t get the box and materials until the week I was supposed to post, and then I did not cooperate… a bunch of times over the course of a couple of weeks. My human only finished editing together what we had just now! So there was no cute video and no fun giveaway. Just a lot of bad outtakes, as you will see below.

Sorry, Friskies! I will try to do better next time.
Note: the $50 bribe belonged to my human. We were not compensated in any way for this post.
Whoa, that was a real fail if not even Binga was game. TW tried to grab the bribe though. MOL!
The looks on their faces. I would love to know what the thoughts behind them were. This is hysterical!
Evidently the Price Was NOT Right, but the looks were priceless. Way to go girls, hold out ’til the Price is Right!

You are soooo lucky to have a helpful mom. My SS has been neglecting the blog and visits most shamefully and only let us on FB once in a while. So unfair! Would you take us on?
Sparkle, This was one of the best Sunday catinees EVER! Ha ha ha! Even Digger did not *really* play with that spork. What a bunch of LAME-O human offerings. Where are the catnip mice? the sparkly balls? the strings??
Here’s something else that’s funny–a little series on yourtube called Will It Blend? They crack the human up–they’re sooooo dumb!
That’s cats for you! Maybe you’ll play when no one is looking.
We were very amused with your video, Sparkle! We don’t think it was a fail at all.
Well what did she expect after all Sparkle you are the star things are done on your schedule and not hers. Through even your fail was LOL in the way you and Binga ignored the items.
At least your human tried. We usually stick to the cat toys, but Ducky was working on stealing a plastic spoon earlier today.
Thank you for your kind words of sympathy for the loss of our beloved Grrreta. Your thoughtfulness and friendship are truly appreciated.

We are proud of you Sparkle that you didn’t stoop to taking a bribe.
Lol – Caren shared this on G+ and I thought it was hilarious!
I actually think your FAIL video is funnier than all the rest!!!
; )
Haha! Binga’s face when the cup was revealed was hilarious!
Sparkle loved the video. You could of got lots of treats with the $50. LOL. 😮
Hehe!! Sparkle if you could turn your nose up, you would have!!! Good job javascript:grin(‘:eek:’)
HAHA..At least we know you can’t be bought Sparkle!
Must have been your on vacation week. 🙂
*MOL*

I miaow like the katnip lounge cat´s = Once again, cats prove they are incorruptible
We enjoyed your video and it certainly showed that cats are not here to please anyone on demand! It was fun seeing Binga walk in front of the camera all the time too!
Tee Hee! It is so cool that yous shows who is boss of your house!
Kisses

Sparkle – you had such a look of disdain on your face the publicist spit her coffee.
YES!!! Once again, cats prove they are incorruptible.
Excellent! Let’s hope the humans learn from this. We love your scornful catitude!
LOVE Cat Wisdom’s comment! MOL.
I played your video twice for Miss Frankie Lulu Belle – She really liked you Sparkle, Binga not so much and she whapped the plastic cup!
We’re blaming all fails lately on Mercury in Retrograde 😉
Sparkle….we kitties all know we have to be in the MOOD and it has to be our idea. Good news is you looked beautiful
Hugs madi your BFFF
Ours did not go well either so we had to decide to not be embarrassed!
MOL! Sparkle, we love that this just shows you being YOU! Purrfect!!!
Can I tell you just how DAMN FUNNY this IS???!!! OMG I have shared it EVERY WHERE……this is a classic! I see that Cody is in good company because as you know, HE wouldn’t play with it either! The bored looks on Binga and Sparkle’s faces are PRICELESS!!
SUPERB!
MOL!
You did it your way!
Purrs
I noticed that Binga is getting really good at her photobombing skills! If ever there is a contest for that…..
Haha! Those outtakes were great! What did your human expect…you to actually do what she wanted???? 🙂
MOL! Too funny! Great video! Thanks for starting our day off with lots of MOLs!
We’re MOL at the way you ignored all those toys. We think that $50 would have come in handy for treats…maybe she’ll try $100 next time!
The Florida Furkids
Good heavens, that was so funny. We did not enter the contest to win one of those since we would have done the very same thing. Mom fell off her chair laughing so hard. Sparkle you are the best.
Great video. Take care.
Alas, this did not work out for us either. And I’m sure all you kitties are laughing at our efforts!
MOL..force doesn’t work !
We kitties are too honest !!!
xoxo
