Bjorn's Tale -- Playtime With Your Kitty

Playtime is fun for animals and owners alike.

    Now some people buy kitty toys, but my best friend prefers to make them! Here are my favourite cat toy ideas.

• A friend! Feline companionship is the best, we can play chase together then wash each others ears.
• Pom-pom balls. They bat so easily and are cheap if I lose them under the bed or the couch or the dresser...
• Who said golf balls are for golfers? I especially like the foam ones that don't dent furniture.
• Squeaky toys. I like playing with these at night. My owner comes out of bed to give me a different toy when I start to have the most fun.
• Ping Pong balls. So light and airy.
• Mice. Fake or real, I love them both. I like to pretend fake ones (like catnip mice) are real and I carry them around in my mouth.
• A little pouch of catnip and fluff. The catnip makes me feel funny and the pouch is altogether so I can't get any out.
• Empty pill containers. They roll in circles and are okay to lose. Not like those full bottles or inhalers.
• Baby toys. What's safe for baby is safe for me.
• Elastics. They go every which way.
• Water dripping from a faucet. Cold water and entertainment too!
• Q-Tips. Disgusting habit, but lots of fun.
• Ball of newspaper. Inexpensive and crackles when I run after it.
• Empty toilet paper rolls. What fun to play with, even better after I unload all the paper onto the floor.
• The toy that is on top of my scratching post. I get sharper nails as it get beaten up.
• Never underestimate the power of string. Just supervise me so I don't swallow it.
