Some great ideas...

Some great ideas for playing with your cat. Although you've probably thought of most of these ideas yourself, I think everyone will find a gem that pays for the book. For me, it was using an old bookcase and cardboard to make a hideout and play area. This book would be a great gift for a child who always wants to buy toys for their cat - now they can make them for little or nothing. The book also teaches a lot about feline behavior.

Turns out it's a game for your kids too!

We gave this to my 10yo daughter for Christmas. It kept her very busy over break coming up with new and creative ways to entertain our kitty.

My boss loves this book

My boss--er, cat--would give this book two thumbs up . . . if he could! The ideas are divided into sections, beginning with simple toys (such as a crumpled up piece of paper), and going into more elaborate toys made from cardboard. The book would get five stars *if* some of the toys weren't store-bought, such as: a toy glove, a ball that drops a treat when played with, circle ball track, a cloth tube/tunnel, scratching post, cat tree . . . you get the idea! These are toys/games you can find out about just by looking at the pet store, and some are pricey. However, overall, the book should provide inspiration and mostly (with some exceptions) low-cost, homemade ideas. Both cat and owner will mutually benefit from playing these games together. It's about time someone realized cats aren't aloof and do really want to interact with us . . . thank you, t.f.h!
