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.

I know of two belonging to two separate friends that would fetch.

Wagler was particularly good at it and would fetch just about everything, bring it right to you, and bite you for your troubles. This was 25 years ago and I haven't kept in touch. I suspect Wagler is no longer with us.

Honey demands wadded up paper balls to fetch and adorably half-asses it getting either distracted and playing with one instead, or just wandering off and only remembering later that he was doing it.

I grew up with a load of cats and have never had one that was remotely interested.
