big cat?

i had a huge cat go accross the bottom of my screen not on the farm on the tool bat at the bottom it had a symbol in its hands, i kept clicking it but nothing happened - any idea what this was?

A gag. If you clicked on it, a check mark probably appeared meaning that you found one of the gags. There are 17 gags all together and it appears to be just a matter of luck as to when any of them appear . . .

thanks very much, was a bit weird! i had a little red tick appear next to it

Exactly!!! Now look for chickens knitting, pigs playing violins . . .
