    I adore this. HOWEVER almost all balloons are latex based rubber. So just in case anyone in your family could be latex sensitive and you almost forgot watching this adorable fun run away balloon ride yeah most of you don't need to worry. I'm working on what could I substitute for a BALLOON to have as much fun. A small mini beach ball without seams, a large soft no seam doggy ball? I'm thinking hard on this. My latex sensitivity is on the serious side. So wanted to take this ride with you today but I had to come to my senses. Darn it. Loved your Video though and I'll try a few out. Here kitty kitty kitty can I borrow your Doggie Ball....MEEEEEOOOWWNNOOO! Ok spoiled kitty you keep it...I'll go to the dollar store and see what I can find.....
