Wednesdays Helpful Pet Tip #3

(this photo is from Design*Sponge)

One of my daily morning blog visits is to Design*Sponge. She is always showcasing beautiful homes or great before/and after projects, clever crafts, floral creations, tasty recipes, cool design ideas and so many other fun things.
I remembered a post about http://www.moomah.com/  (check it out - very cool) that she did in July of last year. Moomah had a cute and EASY project where you can make an awesome cat toy with just a piece of fabric and a pair of scissors!
So, here's the link to that cool cat toy!

I found it's better when I used a soft fabric (like felt) rather than cutting up a hand towel (which I did first and had little "pieces" everywhere! Dah!) I also grow my own catnip so I sprinkled some on the fabric before rolling it up and the kitties were in Heaven!
Have Fun! Sorry this is so late in the day, I'm really dragging! I'm glad that is will soon be bedtime!

            I wish I could just lay in the sun all day!

How neat! I grow my own catnip too. I also have a stack of flannel that I've saved from worn out shirts, and another stack of sweatshirt remnants that the cats love to snuggle into for snoozes.

I bet those would make neat toys too, having to save some for the aformentioned napping material. lol

Thanks for the idea!

Sweet dreams!
