I got this kitten once. And in the house was this large mirror standing 
on the floor (it used to be on the wall at the previous place). Well, 
that kitten would see the cat in the mirror and would play with it like 
mad. Even would look around behind the mirror to see if the cat was 
there. But when the cat got to be about full size it just totally lost 
interest in the mirror cat. My theory was his eyes changed somehow as he 
got older and he didn't see it as clearly.
