    You might want to try buying them a laser light. Most cats love chasing the red dot around. Mine also love the cat track toy in the large version. Here's a link about one of the brands you can buy: http://www.viewpoints.com/Petmate-Th...Circle-reviews. Click details to see it better. They also love almost anything that has catnip in it. Good luck.

    Cassie plays with things around the house - pencils, because they are great to bat and swat off of a table; the ring that holds down the cap on a bottle of milk; and store bought toys she enjoys are little furry mice and a ball with a jingle bell inside.

    Her very favorite toy is Kitty Tease. She enjoyed playing with it at the shelter before I adopted her, so we were given one as an adoption gift. She's been playing with it for 11 years and still enjoys it a lot!

    How about a donation to a pet charity from your kitties? It could be for the same amount you would spend on presents.

    And then you can go to the grocery store, and get them a brand new empty cardboard box!

    That is a GREAT IDEA!! Hay, who has those pictures posted of the box they cut windows and door in and made a castle for their kitties?

    I bought several cat perches (cat trees? climbers?) and those are a huge hit. To get the safer ones costs a bit more, but it is so worth it. I seldom have a perch empty. Mine also like the catnip mouse, preferably one with a pebble inside so it rattles a bit. Other than that, brown paper bags and empty boxes. I learned (like you) that the toys just don't get much use.

    THE ANIMAL WELFARE ASSOCIATION HAS EXCELLENT CAT NIP MOUSIES AND BALLS , AND ALL OF THE MONEY GOES TO THE STRAY AND HOMELESS CATS OF HAMILTON.
    THEY SUDSIDIZED SCRAPPY 2S SPAY , AND I ONLY HAD TO PAY A PART. ALTHOUGH I AM PAYING THE REST THROUGH VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUTIONS TO HELP OTHER CATS WHO ARE LOST AND FRIENDLESS.
    AND I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING BUT ENTHUSIASTIC REVIEWS FROM THE CAT LOVERS ON THE BOARD AND WE WILL TRADE FOR AMERICAN CAT FOOD WE CANT BUY HERE.

    SOUND LIKE A GOOD DEAL?
    BIG MICE ARE 3 DOLLARS, THE BALLS ARE 2 DOLLARS.
