I consider myself a distinguished puss, so you won’t find me chasing after any old toy. Here’s my top ten. How many can you do in a day? It depends who’s around to watch.
10: Feather bowers - yippee! Fabulous feathers flying fast and furious! Fantastic to lick – lick – liiiiiiiiiiiick. Tolerable to wear if your Mama makes you.
9: Cardboard boxes – you can’t see me. Now you can. Now you can’t. No, actually you never could.
8: Cat in the bag - I don’t know where this little buddy gets his energy but he seriously never stops. Except when I sit on him.
7: Laser pointer - beware this is a very elusive dot. I myself have never actually captured it.
6: A ladder or anything else that reaches new heights. Except the kitchen bench. That always ends up badly.
5: Da bird featuring kitty copter - oh my paws, this sounds like heaven and tastes like you’re sinning. Not recommended for kitties with addictive pawsonalities.
4: Shoe laces - chew – chew – chew – chew – fling – chew – chew…
3: Drinking straws - fast movers and double as tooth picks. Hold horizontally between teeth and scrape along the wall for increased midnight fun.
2: Furry mousies of any colour, I don’t discriminate. When chase time’s over, grip deftly between teeth, drop before Food God (aka fridge) and with one swift paw, slam mousie under the door until he hits the back wall with a thud. Score.
1: Da bird featuring hedgehog mousie. I can’t even write about this. I get shaky with desire.
Awesome! I’m going to have to try some of these with my cats. My little guy destroys everything I buy him so I’ve been searching for durable yet engaging toys. Thanks for the suggestions.
