The best toys in life are cheap!

Less is always more with kitties..

Here's my list:

1. Milk jug rings and caps
2. Tin foil balls
3. Da Bird Link
4. Cat Dancer Link
5. String or ribbon tied to the ceiling fan with maybe a feather at the end
6. Christmas sticky bows
7. My feet (oddly kitties feel the need to wage war with them)
8. Dry leaves or twigs with leaves, acorns, or other nuts
9. Legos (these can be hazardous to human feet)
10. My earrings.. great for pawing!

Why do I keep buying the expensive one??

I keep seeing those cute expensive toys, I buy them and the cats look at me like I have two heads.

Have to agree, milk jug rings, tin foil, shoe laces and strangely empty boxes are a big hit.

They plant themselves in empty boxes and get so excited when I walk by, like I'm prey and then they pounce and attack.

One thing I would prefer they not play with, Toilet Paper. Just leave it be. It's not there to be a toy, really. Please!

The most expensive cat toy is...

My cell phone! If it rings, Niko will look up and go on the hunt, following the sound. When he finds the phone, he will pick it up by the antenna and carry it off to his "lair", where he will sit on it. My antenna is an embarrassing mess of tooth marks. It, quite naturally, will appear to others as if I chew on my own phone.

I am not sure why he does this, but he has now done this with two separate phones, using a number of ringtones! He's definitely inspired by "Bittersweet Symphony" though..

The most odd thing? There are 3 cell phones in the house, and one cordless house phone. My phone is the only one he stalks and kills. So, if you call, and I don't answer, it's probably because I can't find my phone!
