Gameplay challenges are some of my favourite things to do. I'm going to post here whenever I set myself challenges using just my pets. Some of the ideas are from here, others might be things I make up, etc..
Last night before bed I decided to try the paint game listed at the link! Basically, you set out a bunch of paint cans. Each colour is worth one point, except for one, which is worth five. You then let your pets loose to paint themselves and they're scored according to how many times they paint themselves and which colours they use.
For this challenge, I picked: Jonas (big fuzzy grey dog), Raffles, Cloudberry (tiny dog behind Raffles), Truff (brown dog), Unnamed (black dachie mix) and Lamb. I decided that pink would be worth 5 points since it might be the most distinctive colour.
Raffles and Cloudberry were off to a strong start, painting themselves blue almost immediately.
Lamb decided that games like these are below his dignity and took a nap instead. Truff doesn't seem to be paying any attention. Cloudberry successfully painted himself grey for a total of 2 points.
Jonas finally painted himself red! Ahahahaha he looks really funny. Raffles painted himself green and approached the pink can but... nothing.
Chaos. Lamb is still napping. Unnamed seems unsure. Truff has decided to just play with one of the auto-rolling balls I set out (to get them running around).
Jonas and Raffles both paint themselves grey.
Cloudberry was doing pretty well at the start, but he's lagging behind now. Jonas wastes no time painting himself white.
Raffles paints himself brown. By this point, if he starts painting himself quickly again, he could still win.
Jonas is quietly working for the goal, and finally paints himself pink!
The unnamed Dachie mix finally paints himself grey. Truff seems to be heading for the pink can.
Meanwhile, Lamb is still asleep.
Raffles paints himself white. Truff seems uninterested in actually painting herself and is content just batting the pink can around.
Unnamed steals a paintbrush. Lamb seems to think Raffles is a ghost now, because he freaks out when Raffles runs past him.
There's time for some butt scootching, no prob
Jonas paints himself again!
Jonas switches to blue and Truff paints her paws red. Finally! Cloudberry turns brown when nobody's watching.
Jonas is red now, and I think it's safe to say he's beating everyone else.
Raffles remembers what he's supposed to be doing and paints himself grey.
Jonas gets pink on him for the second time and Truff (sticking her tongue out ) switches from red markings to blue.
Jonas is definitely the winner!
