Dougy sees the pill bottle and he knows there’s fun inside! No, not a drug high, but inside is that silly “cat toy” that is nothing more than the tear strip off the dry kitty food bag.
Once I have his attention, I open the bottle and the playtime fun begins!
Afterwards, I put it back in the bottle so the kitty boys are safe from accidental ingestion of a piece of plastic they might chew off the strip. As you can see above, this is a “chew toy”!
The boys are just like young children, playing with kitchen utensils, and old cartons !
One has to “kitty proof” the house, just like you would with toddlers.
And like toddlers I am sure two can do far more than twice the damage of one.
That’s a fact!
I agree, Doug. It is best to keep anything that can pass down a gullet under wraps. I once caught Lucio ripping the metal jingle ball off a toy and attempting to swallow it. I pulled it out of this mouth.
Oh man! I guess anyone with pets (or kids) has had similar experiences! That was a lucky with Lucio!
You are lucky to have such creative boys. I brought two things home from Thanksgiving with the family, case of sinusitis which is now bronchitis (which I would happily return) and a beautiful custom cat tree which the cats where initially wary of but now adore. Once I stop coughing Ill be posting pictures but for once an expensive toy is getting used!! There’s something I’m thankful for!
My kitty boys love their cat trees, and Dougy usually sleeps in the tube of one or the other.
I’m looking forward to seeing how yours approach their custom cat tree!
Lol! They play with the funniest things…Charlie’s best toy ever is a little label I cut out of the back of my jumper! 😸
LOL! I can believe it! I dropped an unshelled walnut on the floor one Christmas season, and that became a favorite toy of both kitty boys. They batted it around with their paws and it went all over the place thanks to its irregular shape.
They are funny! 🙂 x
I guess that’s part of why we keep them around!
You should market this 🙂 It is definitely kitty approved.
LOL! It’s a thought! Of course, once you put a price on it, kitties all over the world wouldn’t play with it.
Aww, I thought it was a mysterious scroll with a message, LOL
Awww! I wish it were!
What a cool idea. I would never have thought of it. I must try.

Give credit to the kitty boys, Jean. My only contribution (since I know Andy in particular is notorious for trying to eat plastic) was to come up with an empty pill bottle to store it safely between play sessions. My sister’s late kitty boy, Sox, was extremely possessive of his favorite toy, a toilet tube with the ends cut into a fringe. Like most cats, the more expensive the toy, the less likely they will play with it, it seems! LOL!
I like the toilet roll too…must try these tomorrow when I try decorating for Christmas. Thanks Doug.
LOL! Why not?!
what a funny diy-project… and it worked ;o) I wonder why we still bring our wonga to stores to buy toys ;O)
Me, too! The kitty boys decided it was a toy, and my only contribution was the pill bottle to safely store it between play sessions. Dougy wants to play with it every morning, noon, and night. Andy is almost as insistent I bring it out for play.
