Homemade Cat Toys

RE: Homemade Cat Toys Post By bryanna (Guest Post) (08/27/2008) My cat is such a spaz, but he loves pens and pencils, highlighters, anything he can get his paws on. That and plastic straws are his favorite! Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Cat Toys Post By sandi (Guest Post) (06/07/2008) i take a strip of aluminum foil. maybe 4", and roll it into a ball.

If i can't find her, I just drop one and BANG! she comes out from whatever spot she is hiding in and snatches it up! another thing you can do is tie a string (***WATCH YOUR CAT WHEN PLAYING WITH STRING TO AVOID DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY***) to a door knob in a room with a fan on. then the string with flutter and your cat will think its alive. Its very funny! Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Cat Toys Post By Kathy (Guest Post) (11/18/2006) I love all these ideas! But, I must warm everyone... be careful with rubber bands and plastic... they can cause serious problems for the kitty! My favorite cat toy is one of those disposable drinking straws. My cat loves it! Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Cat Toys Post by Campnluray (40) | (11/02/2006) Profile | Contact There is nothing my big bad boy loves as much as those twisty ties for trash bags. He spends hours playing with them. I double them up and then make a circle.

Also loved playing "catch" with wadded up paper. She would bite us if we didnt throw the paper for her to chase when she brought it to us.

ANYWAY, we give "the boys" simple rubber bands to play with. THEY seem to really love playing with them as if they were a small snake or big worm. It is funny to watch the acrobatics that they can and do perform while playing with them. Try it, they love it and you'll enjoy watching them.

My cat LOVES to chase pill bottles (Advil, Aspirin or even used prescription bottles). I put a few old buttons inside and make sure the caps are on tightly (childproof works best). She will chase these around for hours. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Cat Toys Post by PICO (309) | (10/28/2006) Contact I always make my cats a pompom string. I make a pompom out of leftover yarn and when I tie the middle(make sure you tie it tight) leave about 6" of yarn hanging. Then I get a piece of 1/4" elastic about 16"from my sewing box and tie it to the pompom. I just tie the other end to one of my kitchen drawer handles. Make it about 6-8" off the floor. It's funny to watch them, they will pull it as far as they can and then they let go and the pompom goes flying. Report Spam or Abuse
