Here are some ways by which cat love playing with humans

1. Climbing

Cats love to climb almost anything they can find: tree stumps, branches, the backs of chairs, sofas and most times even their humans. This is because cats are arboreal in nature. They love to be near trees and other structures that allow them to survey their surroundings or even hide in them should there be a predator nearby. If a human is nearby, chances are she's going to run up it too.

They also use trees for another reason: marking territory . The smell from the glands in their paws leaves a scent on the tree that lets other cats know "Hey, this kitty was here!" This usually starts when a kitten learns how to climb.

2. Playing fetch

The most common end result of these games is something you might be familiar with: "I got to go get it!" This is the feline version of tug-of-war. When cats see their humans running after a toy, they naturally follow suit and chase the toy too. If a human throws a ball, she throws it to her cat; the cat hits it with his paw, brings it back and drops it in her hand.

If the cat ever gets tired of playing fetch, he'll bring the toy back up to where he last dropped it and put his paw on top of what she's holding to remind her that he's still perched on top of his prize.

3. Playing with water

Many cats like to play with water too. Water is a great hiding place. Some cats like to play in the bathtub, but most of them enjoy sitting on the edge and floating around in it. The water is also a great way for them to cool down after a long day outside.

4. Playing with human's toys

They are so great at pretending to catch birds in flight that a cat can be seen swatting at the air for hours. Many cats love chasing things that look like bugs and squirrels.
