Rolling Cat Toys

Cylinder cat toys involve can-shaped things that roll. Here are two different ways you can go about constructing cylinder cat toys, though they are by no means the only. The first provides more potential audible enjoyment for the cat but is more complicated, while the second is extremely simple but quiet.

For a noisy cylinder cat toy, take a handful of dry rice or other small objects (the best are food items that). Then put them in a cylinder, like a film can roll or tiny plastic container and close them up making sure that the objects cannot escape. When rolled the cylinder cat toy makes a pleasnt chittering or clattering sound that will excite the cat. Smaller or cautious cats are often not attracted by this toy because it is noisy. For them, try the second method of cylinder cat toy, which involves the tube from a used up roll of toilt paper. That's all there is to it... just place it on the ground or hold it up in the air to get your cat's attention. Sometimes this cat toy on the ground leads to a strike by the cat. His attention will be kept, because the cat will try to bat the cat toy with his paw and it will likely roll and spin out of his grasp leading to further excitement for him. You may want to try the paper ball cat toy if the cylinder cat toy does not attract your cat.

Warning: make sure if you are doing a filled cylinder cat toy that none of the objects have a chance of escaping because you don't want the cat to ingest any of the pieces. This would make him very unhappy indeed, and very sick.
