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 had a cat that played fetch. When he was young fellow, he'd fetch and bring the toy back to me. Eventually he'd only bring the toy most of the way back, and I had to cover the remaining distance. Then he'd bring the toy back some of the way back, and it eventually turned into him running to where the toy ended up, sitting down next to it, and looking at me like "Okay, I found where you tossed the toy, now come over and get it so we can do this again". He still loved to play, but it seemed he kind of outgrew the fetch thing.
