    My Cleo used to love the tin foil ball when she was little. I think because it sparkles as it catches the light. Also it's light and easy to carry and because it's uneven, not smooth like a ball, they can pick it up easily with their teeth. (eeuw - can you imagine doing that yourself, the thought makes me squirm, like fingernails down a blackboard) We haven't tried the foil ball for ages, maybe we should resurrect that game. Currently she likes the feathers and streamer things on a stick. Colette likes little toy mice, the tiny ones.

    Our 2 male cats are very destructive with their toys. Most toys I buy them only last a day or two. When we lived at our old place we used to buy them lots of those little mice and they just loved them but they always disappeared. It was a very small apartment and we used to wonder where they went but we kept buying them. Then when we moved my husband and I still never found any of them and we wonder if they ate them?? Needless to say we don't buy any toys like that anymore! The tin foil balls have disappeared now too but I made them very hard so I don't think they will be able to eat those. I hope not anyway!! LOL

    We've had a tin foil ball toy that's been sitting in the M's toy basket for over a year. All of a sudden, Mitzi dug it out of the basket this week and it's now one of her latest favorite toys. Give it time. Cats will play with the toys on THEIR terms, but you probably do know that by now, right?
