Try fly tying with a cat around. They go insane for feathers and deer hair. I keep the door closed and the cat outside when I tie flies in my study, or else he will jump onto the desk and drag off all my materials.
I like tying divers and wool sculpins. Here’s a bass sculpin I did last fall, before and after trimming.
Underwater photography, some above water as well.
Did running, slooowly getting back to it after knee problems.

Lazing About Looking For Excuses Not To Work
I just finished a diploma, which was less of a hobby and more of an obsession and in any case leads to a career, so with all my new free time I’ve started the following:
Reading (for fun!)
Hot yoga
Cycling
Some people might not count it, but my main leisure activity is TV. I absolutely love it and it makes me very happy indeed. I like to follow certain programmes and learn about the making of…I’ll watch almost anything. Despite complaints of so many channels and nothing on - well, I only have UK freeview with about 30 channels and there is almost always something that intrigues me. 
My hobbies include liking people, smiling and being an American
Geocaching!

I’ve got too many hobbies – as evidenced by the mess in my craft room. Anyway, here we go:
Knitting/crocheting
cooking and baking
pottery
tole painting
pysanky (Ukrainian egg decorating)
basket weaving
gardening
taking art classes
reading (nonfiction mostly)
Reading (Some sci-fi and fantasy, a LOT of history, and military).
Working out.
Nice! I usually stuck to mostly trout and panfish flies but I did tie some bigger wooley buggers and various streamers from rabbit and squirrel hair. Weighted streamers made from rabbit hair, especially when it absorbs water, is a pain to cast though.
I spent last night looking for some pictures but the forum I had posted them on lost them after some sort of database error/crash.
Fitness
Carpentry
R/C trucks and cars (Nitro powered… not electric)
High-Performance Boating (Wellcraft Scarab)
