My cat will play fetch for as long as I throw her little mouse toy. She'll even let me throw it from bed and she'll bring it right back up for me to throw again.

Only 2 of them did it their whole lives… Ginger now considers it servitude, but would literally fetch milk rings or mice until both my girlfriend and I got worn out… two and a half hours IIRC. She was so fast, like 30-40 mice a minute.

I think the longest we've played fetch was may 30-40 minutes before I gave up. I'll need to try for a marathon, a fetch-a-thon

I mean that was two (humans) trading off until we both collapsed with arms limp like overcooked pasta. I’m pretty sure Ginger would have gone all day… she’s 13 now and mostly just stares judgmentally at me ;-)
