My goodness, what a collection he ate!

Sparkle eats elastic bands, and they come out the other end. I used to keep a few on a doorknob for when I need them. Sparkle is a long / tall cat. She would stretch up and start snapping them until on bounced off the knob and onto the floor. I had to move them to the inside knob of a closet so I could get them and SHE CAN'T.

Cat proofing is an ongoing job; it is never completed. That doesn't make you a bad mom, don't beat up on yourself.
