Home Family and home Pets How to choose and make DIY toys for kittens

Kittens, like small children, toys are needed and there should be a lot of them, because during the game a certain percentage is lost. In pet stores, there is an unlimited number of such goods. Voiced, fluffy, unusual toys for your four-legged pet can be made with your own hands.

What are the toys for kittens

Before heading to the specialty store, check out the variety of kitten toys.

The most popular choices for a pet are - mice. Before buying, pay attention to the safety of the toy - the fabric from which it is made must be strong, so that after the first attack of a playful kitten, the toy does not burst. For little kittens it is worth choosing a mouse that does not have small details (eyes, mustache, beads, etc.). 1

You can also attract the attention of a kitten with a ringing toy - teaser... It can be a ball of feathers on a string that the owner pulls on. Pay attention to the quality of the material from which the toy is made in order to avoid unpleasant consequences. The strongest teaser has the shape of a ball on which a string is fixed, and he himself is pasted over with feathers and fur.

In pet stores you can find various balls... They are plastic, fur, foam, etc. Often there is a ringing bell or other objects that make sound inside the toy. Balls are the safest pet toys. 4

Kittens really like voiced pendulums. This type of toy consists of a bell, pendant or ball, which is attached to a stable base with a spring. 3

If you are not in a hurry with the purchase, be prepared for the kitten to entertain itself on its own, and the surrounding things will take over the role of toys. To play "snow" the kid will need various paper products, which he can easily turn into scraps: toilet paper, napkins, books, magazines and much more. 5

In addition, the kitten can be entertained with the help of a "sun bunny". To do this, use a flashlight or laser, directing the beam to different places, observe with what diligence the little baby is trying to catch a bright speck. This game brings pleasure not only to the four-legged friend, but also to the owner.

DIY toys for kittens

As mentioned earlier, kittens need toys, otherwise they will start playing whatever they find, and the owner will not like it very much.

It is not necessary to buy a toy in specialized stores, it is easy and simple to make it yourself.


For manufacturing you will need:

  • a small box, for example from shoe covers;
  • food foil;
  • fish fat in capsules;
  • yarn.

Put a couple of capsules of fish oil in the box (then, during the game, a sound will be made that will attract the attention of the kitten), in the lid you need to make a small hole through which you can put the yarn. The rope must be secured well so that it does not come off during the fun. Wrap the toy in foil.


The next toy is called a "secret box", you will need:

  • cardboard box;
  • scissors;
  • Scotch;
  • pieces of cardboard;
  • small balls.

It is necessary to cut small holes of various shapes (square, round, etc.) in the box, so that the ball and the kitten's paw can easily crawl through. So that during the game the box does not turn into a plane, it is necessary to attach a cardboard jumper to the lid with the help of adhesive tape from the inside. Close the box and tape the corners. Now we put balls into the holes and watch a fun game.
