i need some ideas on toys that i can make my cats to play with at night so they wont be boredi have bought them all kinds of toys from the store, they play with them a few min and then seem to loose interestI have Boxes for them to crawl in, and the tunnels they can run through, but they seem more interested in playing with my closet door( its one of those doors that folds together when you open it.) i just need ideas on what i can make them to keep them entertained
Aluminum foil balls-ripe off a large bunch of foil and smush it into a ball, doesn't even have to be perfectly round (but the rounder, the better they will roll)If your cats like catnip, you can stuff a bit in the foilThe foil catches the light in the dim hours but the cat can see it, and it's light weight enough so when a cat bats at it, it'll rollAnd when you step on it or it rolls into the black hole, you can always make a new oneOne of my cats like the plastic rings from plastic milk bottles, she'll play with the cap itself but she really likes the little strip that you pull off to open the lidMy male cat likes loofahs-he can grab them and use both his front feet and back feet on the thing while biting it (he can't do that with anyone else after all)Plus I think the loofah helps clean his teeth when he bites itMy cats like batting pens around tooAnd emery boards (not sure why, something about the smell of them)Plastic paperclips.
