Mine dogs like plush toys. I learn over the years that the best toys are baby toys. Toys designed for dogs are not always durable and safe, but baby toys are. Toys are expansive and no surprise, dog’s toys are more expensive that baby toys. I always buy toys for my dogs at garage sale…very often you can buy new plush baby toys for few cents. My dogs love new toys…I always buy one for each…but like little kids…they always fight for the same one…My dogs don’t play with balls, water or rubber toys.
They like cat toys and cat can’t play with her toy for long time without sharing her game..
What kind of toys do you buy for your dog or cat? Plush, water toys, rubber/latex, balls, fabric or other?

My dogs like ball games, all kind of ball games with me, without me and they even sit on the sofa and watch tennis or soccer on TV... I am not kidding. This is for real.

..I believe you...my younger dog is watching TV sometimes...but only if animals are on....

I love playing with my cats and dogs. They love all types of toys from the expensive ones to the cheap ones. Right now, the cat is fascinated with her cat nip mice and fluffy ball. They dogs are completely in love with their squeaky toys. The ones that squeak more are the best in their opinion. I'm always buying toys or a treat for them. It's pretty bad when I have to buy toys for the cats and dogs but then I have to buy toys for the rabbit and parrot so they don't get jealous. It's a trip!

I forget to mention squeaky toys...my dogs like it...I have few talking toys and they like it too...

I'm absolutely sure that cats and dogs understand what people talk.

I think they do...dogs for sure....

My two little jewels really don't care for toys...I have a ton of them...I was even considering buying a nice bed for each of them but they seem every bit as content with a cardboard box that I have one of my pillows in it with a pillowcase on it..oh, and of course, heaven forbid...I do change the pillow case once a week--another kind of freebie toy I made and that's the only one they do play with...so old material that I placed catnip in it, sewed it up and viola..instant catnip toy!


myLot reputation of 97/100. polachicago (8508)   ranked 1 out of 7,861 in dogs  5 years ago

cats like catnip toys.....as far as pet beds...mine like to sleep all over the place and cat's favorite is one chair with pillow on it...I guess they like pillows...:)


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 25 out of 7,861 in dogs  5 years ago

Well the ultimate favorite place they like to sleep is my sofa...uh, correction their sofa...I never get a chance to sit on it...if I do they give me a rather nasty look--another place..cuddled up on my bed while I'm sleeping...hardly have room for myself..and I don't dare think of moving them--oh, no!


myLot reputation of 97/100. polachicago (8508)   ranked 1 out of 7,861 in dogs  5 years ago

...looks like my dogs...not much room for myself...forget about fancy dogs beds...they don't like it...sofa and my bed are much better....

I have a cat and I enjoy playing with her. Here is one toy making tip for cats,:1. Get a piece of fabric. 2. Rip it in shreads on one side, and the same with the other side aswell. 3. Get elastic string and tie it to one end of the shreaded piece of fabric and make it so it wont come off easily, (you could also use velcrow), 4. Get some bells on tie it to the end of it(the side you wont hang it from). 5. Hang it on a chair and cats will come up to and play with it. You could also make a little bean bag looking thing with velcrow on one side and put catnip in it so it will stay in! :)

I always play with him pola, he is my joy. He is almost 6 years old, but still looks like a puppy and acts like one.
He thinks my mother is his mother, and everyone that comes into my house, starts playing with him. you can see his picture on my profile page. I usually play with him runing a race inside the house, he loves it, and it makes my mother crazy. He is not interested in the usual toys. I bought him a ball, but he does not show any interest in that, and just looks at you, saying, what do you want from me. Lol. So runing and hide and seek is his best games. Lol.


myLot reputation of 97/100. polachicago (8508)   ranked 1 out of 7,861 in dogs  5 years ago

I dont actually play with my cats toys. She usually entertains herself running about and playing with anything and nothing at all. The dog is spoiled. My Rainbow has SO many toys its insane. I cant believe I give her so much haha!! Sometimes she knows when she loves to play. She will make me throw a toy for her for like 20 mint. She lets me know. She has plenty to eat and play with all the time though so worries at all! :))

I have 30 cats and we play all the time! I give them catnip toys, paper balls and they find many things to amuse themselves with. When I am too busy to play with them, I have this ball that has a fake raccoon tail attached to it and it runs on batteries, so I just turn it on and it'll scoot all over the floor with that (tail) flopping around on it and it drives the cats crazy! Fun to watch!!

how did you end up with 30 cats? are you able to feed them?
