We all know the frustration we experience when we bring home a new toy for our finicky friends and they rush straight for the BOX or for some other obscure item lying on the floor such as pens, paper clips, rubber bands, you know, things that you DIDN'T purchase for them to play with!
Understanding how the felines in our lives think, the folks at Friskies are at it again! Ever on the cutting-edge, they devised a kit which contains common household items such as spoons, crumpled paper, paper cups, yarn, etc. to answer the age old question "Will Kitty Play With It?"
Friskies recorded videos of cats playing with various household items the first of which appeared on February 15th and you can see it right here:
The remaining videos of the series can be seen on the Friskies Facebook Page by clicking here and other DIY toys will be available for viewing on the Friskies Pinterest page on their DIY Homemade Cat Toys board.
Friskies even had their cat blogger panel get in on the fun! We were sent a "Will Kitty Play With It?" kit that contained a purple box, magic marker, red plastic cup, string and paper to crumble. We received an instruction sheet and were on our way to see if our kitties would "play with it!"
I had a nagging feeling about testing these items with Cody. Why? Being the laziest and often most uncooperative cat (when it comes to videos) what do YOU think happened? Check these out...and if nothing else you should get a laugh at my miserable video skills!
Think your cat(s) will do better than Cody? Friskies wants you to find out! They have generously offered 20 "Will Kitty Play With It" kits for my readers!
