Do you own a cat? If so here's an app that is for your cat, not for you at all, and it's called the Cat Fishing 2 app. This app has actually been developed by Friskies so they're well aware of what cats enjoy. The way it works is that you need to press the start button and then let your cat go wild. Cats will be "catching" fish by tapping on them as they pass by. There are even three different levels here so if your cat happens to be particularly good at fishing he or she will advance. Cats can even catch more than one at a time. Another cute feature is the fact that after 30 seconds of your cat not playing it will meow at them in order to get their attention again.  Cat Fishing 2 app review
