The trend on Twitter called ‘Quarantine Games’ has got people from around the world participating in creative and somewhat ridiculous ways to combat isolation.

Some top contenders of Quarantine Games are those that can be played with one’s pet. Here are a few hilarious examples in case you were planning on getting competitive with your animal companion.

As many major sports events are being canceled or postponed people are also coming up with their own versions of playful activities.

I’ve invented a game of “cat cricket”.

?My cat has to defend the box from my ping pong ball.

?If the ball hits the cardboard, that’s a point to me. ??‍♂️

?If she bats it away that’s a point to her. ?

First to ten wins. ??
