Anyone's cat have a strange and unusual toy? Opie loves playing with hair bands and today I found him playing with a clip in braid for your hair. Something about hair things that he loves. Anyone else's cats play with weird toys/objects?

Hair rubberbands and straws. Whenever we clean behind the dresser, under the beds, or under the couches, we find hundreds of them.
Not that odd maybe, but paper boxes is one of the favorite toys around here:

My guy loves packing paper - that newsprint-quality paper. He tears it up; slides around on with his front paws on the paper and hind legs pushing on the carpet. He dives under the paper or throws a toy under the paper so he has an excuse to attack. Hours of fun for him and entertaining for me.

Sunny likes paper grocery bags . All you have to do is lay one on its side and directly there is a cat in the bag .LOL :D
Oh yes, papers are the best!

Cubby loves straws, and paint brushes. Of course the paint brushes he takes are the brand new ones. The straws he has been known to take them out of what ever you are drinking so he can play. If I clean out from under the couch I would find about a half dozen straws. He will beat them up to the point that you can't tell if it's a straw or what. It's funny to watch him. He will throw it up in the air and carry on for hours on end with it.
PAPER!
Plastic Bags, anything really that goes *scrunchie*
Boomer absolutely loves the little plastic "containers" (for the toy) inside Kinder Eggs . He proudly carries them around in his mouth like trophees and can play with them for hours. :)
My 3 girls prefer the cat ticklers and kitty light and show no interest in odd toys...unless plastic bags of all kinds count.
ABEY CAT Alice , that is so cute sitting in that bag! I love it when Sunny does that ! Thanks for showing that picture ..... sweet !:D
...and what can be more fun than an old rug?!

Briggs will ALWAYS steal a green bean when I'm getting them ready for cooking. She often "helps" me cook but seems to have a special affinity for green beans. She doesn't eat them -- just pinches one and prances off with it in her mouth. Toooo adorable.
She also loves ICE! When ever I open the freezer and rattle the ice, she comes running. The game here is ice hockey. I tell her to get into position and she hunkers down and waits for me to slide an ice cube over to her. She'll bat at it and even sometimes hit it back to me. Most times she bats it and then shakes her paw as if to say "OOOOh, that one was COLD!" Occasionally she makes a goal by hitting it under the fridge or into the next room. SCORE!!
Ally likes to play with Cherries - which is great if she keeps them in the kitchen, but less endearing when she smudges cherry juice into my cream coloured carpet!
Her lastest toy............. you know those "bobbly" chains that attach the plug to the sink? I bought some new ones to replace some broken ones, and she got hold of one - I thing she likes it because she can bat it across the tiled floor really quickly!
...and big creepy spiders!

I think the oddest thing the kittens like to play with are my Halloween socks. :) They have a candy corn bell on them. Last night I caught Pheobe RUNNING out of our closet with a sock in her mouth. :) :) :)
Sammy LOVES to shread up the toliet paper, and pull it from the wall. He also loves to play with Q-tips, crumpled up paper towel, squirrel tail, and duck wing. Bascially if it moves, Sammy loves it.
Dudley doesn't like anything, he never plays, rather boring.:o
sunny likes paper bags ,and anything he can get into . loverboy likes to get in the wheelbarrow when im putting dirt or leaves in it . :rolleyes:
Our cats love to play with the plastic ring that comes off of the gallon or half-gallon milk jugs. They will bat and carry them all over the house. (I am almost ashamed to admit it, but we have one couch that is very low to the ground, so that you really can't see under it. When we were moving, and we moved that couch, we counted 29 milk rings under it. Needless to say, we got a pretty good laugh out of that one. :D ) Saphirah also loves Q-tips. She will also play fetch. She brings a milk ring or Q-tip, drops it in front of us, and waits for us to toss it. She brings it back, and we do this over and over until she decides the game is finished. :)
My cats do that too ! I have moved my couch and found all kinds of little things there ! Cats can be such rascals ! :rolleyes:
GGGGRRRRRR...I don't with which one to be annoyed. I went downstairs this morning....all cleaned up to go to a meeting. Saw something on the floor in the front hall. I assumed it to be a leaf dragged in on someone's shoe...a current favorite toy. So, (did I mention it is a gloomy day and I didn't turn the light on???) I picked it up.
Eeeewww... it was a "toy" from the litter box!
Tibby for some reason loves tampons.
First she unwraps them

Then she tries to kill it

Then after it's dead she tosses it into the water fountain

:eek: Edwina's secretary: cats are way too trickey sometimes, but we love them any way. Don't you just love it when your neighbors decide to visit before you have gotten a chance to inspect your house ? Sunny seems too like the plastic wrappers on tampons , also the strings .:o
You have a beautiful cat Unabassoon ! :)
Paper is just SOO much fun!
