How adorable are these handmade kitty toys? (Images in this post are copyright udessi.com.au) Made by Edward & Lilly, this kitty and her friends are available for sale through the Udessi online store. I also love the inspiration behind this range: Bunnies, kitties and puppies were designed in response to the children who lost their [...]

Review: Spotnips Springs.

27 August 2009

When walking through a pet store recently I spotted a packet of Spotnips springs. They looked interesting and on close inspection didn’t seem to be a hazard, so I got a pack for Train. I wasn’t sure what she’d think of them, so I put one on the floor to begin with and pushed it [...]

As far as making cat toys go, I can’t think of a way that this cat toy could be more simple. Surprisingly it’s one of the most effective toys I’ve ever given Train. It’s a ping pong ball that’s stuffed with catnip. Best of all, it doesn’t cost much and can be easily made at [...]

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this before, but Train loves all things feathery. Of course, I couldn’t resist when I found this Kong… carrot-y thing. I understand the reasoning behind mice toys… but a carrot? Perhaps the Kong product development team got confused between cats and rabbits. Nevermind, Train still loved it in all [...]

No matter what we buy Train, her favourite toy is always the old favourite: hair ties. Her obsession with hair ties started when she was a little kitten. Mr. J noticed she kept stealing mine, so bought her a pack of her own. We’ll flick them for her around the house and she catches them [...]

I’m a reader of All Toile And No Reward and also a fan of her amazing creations under the banner of flickettysplits. When she recently posted about Chairman Meow, I checked my bank balance and decided I could survive without morning hot chocolates this week. How gorgeous is he? I asked the same question of [...]

Usually I’m the one in this house that spoils Train, but when Mr. J read my post about The Pawbreaker he purchased one for her the same day. Yes, she is a very lucky kitty. The service from Pookinuk was okay. An order confirmation was sent, but no shipping confirmation. We did, however, receive the [...]

What could be better than some fresh catnip poured on the floor? Perhaps a giant ball of catnip that you can bat around and eat? Well, someone has already thought of that. Like most cat lovers, Brett Buchanan provided his three cats with plenty of catnip toys, but noticed that as his kitties aged, their [...]
