For Christmas, I got Coco a laser toy.  Coco is a very big boy and needs lots of exercise, so I decided this would be a great toy for him.  I was right!  He loves it and keeps him moving.   Smiley   :heart: :flower:  :paw:  :apple:

Here is the site for those who would like to purchase one.

Mine like different toys. They love the lazer light, feather stick, fishing pole. Darla specifically likes the fur covered mice, spongy balls, anything packable. Maid Marianne likes anything with a bell like a ball with bell and birdie ball.

My guys love "Tailchasers"...Foster and Smith used to carry them and now you can get them at your local Target.  My guys prefer them over just about anything.

However I have a few that like foilballs and rattle mice if the other is taken.

I have a little yellow stick with a string and a tassel of tinsel that my kitties love to chase.

Mine go through fur mice like there's no tomorrow, so I buy them by the dozen when I can find them.  There are dozens of the things under the bookcases that I have to get out with a yardstick every few days.  They all love to "kill" the mice and bring them to me.  Eliot always yowls as he brings the dead mouse to me.  He looks so happy when I tell him what a brave, good boy he is for having killed that mousie.

Reggie adores those krinkly balls.  I just bought him a bunch of them.  I ordered 6, thinking I was going to get 6 individual balls.  When the package came, there were 12 2-packs in there!  I put most of them away so I can replace them as Reggie destroys them.

They also like balls.  Balls with bells inside, without bells, any color.  I recently got them 3 Pawbreakers, which are compressed catnip balls.  They love them!

My house looks like a daycare some days when I get home--there are toys all over the floor!!

Catnip toys that I have found to be safe and do not fall apart are manufactured by West Paw Design.  They come in various shapes, eg: hearts, teddy bears, etc.  It is the only catnip toy I have found that can be around for months  and when discovered, they goes crazy with it like it just came out of the package.

Sasha and Sam both love the laser light.  Sam will sit by the drawer and stare at me until I take it out.   Sasha tries to act a little more dignified about it, but she loves it too.   Her favorite thing is her boogie mat.  She loves it with or without fresh 'nip in it.   The site I order it from has excellent, well-made toys that I highly recommend.

Tosca's favourite toys are ones that are very lightweight ... things like colourful plastic springs, multi-coloured ping pong balls, foam balls.

A homemade toy he is particularly fond of is a thin (bendable) drinking straw cut in half.  He loves running around with his 1/2 straws and he loves putting them into hard to reach crevices (and watching me then get them out).

He also loves any kind of catnip stuffed toy ... catnip horse, catnip mouse, catnip moose.

For Tess & Monty Da Bird wins hands down in the cat toy stakes.
It's feathers attached to a fine cord & pole and when it flies it resembles a bird in flight. Tess growls as she hauls her prey away the pole lugging behind her.

Misha's favorite toy is the one that came from his breeder when I got him.  It is a plastic stick with a plastic golf ball with feathers on the end.

He also likes his laser collar, last year's christmas present.  Got it from Pet Smart.  Here is a video of someone elses cat playing with theirs
