Inventory

Under the loveseat:
Two half-eaten rawhide bones
Three small wooden balls
Two bubblegum machine bouncy balls (we used to call these "superballs" when I was a kid, but that term takes on a different meaning as an adult)
One hoof
Two wine corks
One cardboard toliet paper roll insert, chewed on one end
Two furry grey mice (cat toys, not live mice)
Enough pet hair to knit a kitten-sized sweater (good luck getting him into it, though)

Under/behind the sofa:
One Othello game piece
One Christmas tree ornament
Three bubblegum machine bouncy balls
One large bouncy ball
Three hair scrunchies (my daughter and I have been known to fling them at each other while watching TV)
One pencil
One sock
One martial arts token (given out by the karate school for good attendance)
Enough pet hair to make at least one more cat, possibly two (depending on the size)

Sadly, I did not find any steak knives, so if the kitten's hiding them somewhere, he's got a different spot to stash them in. He was oh-so-helpful about cleaning under the furniture, though. I've found that if he spends enough time rolling in my dirt pile (which believe me, he does), there won't be much left for me to sweep into the dustpan. Now if I could only figure out how to teach him to use the broom...
