q-tips

Yep! In fact I hide the used ones and try to placate Tucker with new ones
while I am busy using one.

My cat LOVES to play with q-tips (cotton swabs).... he picks them up in
his
mouth, bats them around, goes crazy with them.... he's as happy with one
that I hand him straight out of the box as he is stealing one from the
garbage container in the bathroom....

Anybody else's kitty do this?

That and straws... yes.

YES! STRAWS! lol. Tucker recently started playing with those. it is
HYSTERICAL

Kona will play fetch with Q-tips. I throw them, he chases after them
while they are in the air, then he kills them and brings them back and
puts them down at my feet.

I bought some colored pipe cleaners that both my cats will
spontanously start playing with. Funny how those pipe cleaners try so
hard to run away from the cats. I saw Sabastian "stalk" one the other
day from around the corner of an ottoman. The bright colors are nice
because it makes it easier to spot them in their eventual resting
places-behind the sofa, under stuffed chairs, in closets, etc. :-)


So it's not a worry about the little metal thing inside? I'd be afraid Tuck
would put an eye out.

I love it when they walk around with it in their mouths like a bone
from the Flintstones. :-)

I bend the ends around just to be safe, although if you twist them up
into the pretzel type shapes that work best for them to play with I
don't think there's a significant risk the way the cats play with
them. BTW, you can find these colored ones in the large pet stores.

My cat loves them. He always manages to get them stuck under the scales in
the bathroom. It is a good half hours entertainment for him trying to get it
back.
