    The most ridiculous cat toys are the ones you spend a ton of money on then they never play with. It's like cat beds! You can give cats shoestrings and an empty box instead of new toys and a bed and they'd be content.
    I will share a few pictures I found though.

    Kittens are obviously toys.

    Obviously, My Little Ponies are not meant for cats...but who could resist this picture?

    Oh my God, I really admit people's fantasy. I've seen so many weird cat toys but I can't imagine my cats playing them. Or.. maybe for 1 minute. Everything that moves is worth paying attention for a little while. But that's all.

    I will stick to the simple toys. The ones published here are plain ridiculous and I bet they cost a lot too. I do think that some owners do like to go overboard when it comes to spoiling their cats. It's their money, so to each his own, I guess :D

    Ha! But hey, I guess if the cat wants to play and the owners are busy, at least this would keep them entertained? Or while they're at work? Is it battery operated and has to be turned on?

    What do you think a cat will do with something like this?

    I've tried those swinging like cat toys, that swing when the touch it, and keep on swinger for quite some time. Thes type of toys just don't work with my cats. I wonder why they don't react to these types of toys. These toys here are cool ones to say the least.

    Victor, I actually like that one. It looks like something my cats would enjoy - just lazing around and playing catch with one another.

    Lmao! You wouldn't believe the toys I seen for cats. I had to buy a least one to see how silly it was. A cat can really entertain you with the stuff the do with these toys.

    I actually like the turntable cat toy, because I like dance music and used to work at a nightclub on South Beach. I'm pretty sure Dolores wouldn't use it, though. But it's really stylish and hip. I guess they figured out that if a DJ scratches records, the cat might enjoy scratching one as well.

    What is it with cats and boxes? Every time we get a delivery of anything in a box, our cats want to get in the box and stay there for at least 1/2 hour. Sometimes it causes our cats to playfully fight for their position in the box.

    I don't know. I think they just like anything new that's brought into the house. Boxes are especially fun because you can climb *in* them and not just bat them around, hehe.

    I was thinking about cutting up a bunch of boxes and creating tunnels out of them. My cats seem to like when daddy rigs something for them. I'm not sure how effective this will be, but I think it will be worth the time to try, since none of the pet stores here in Key West have tunnels.

    Oh they'd love it! I can't imagine why they wouldn't. Anything they can go explore is always fun, right?

    My young Bengal, Phoebe has destroyed several sets of ear phones that we use for our I-pods. Whenever she sees those things dangling anywhere, she immediately starts batting them around and chewing on them. Tabitha (on your left) will not destroy them, but she does play with them as much as Phoebe does. Now, do not get me wrong, Phoebe is not destructive, but these ear phones are an exception to that rule.

    My cat isn't interested fancy toys, he seems to like cable ties, 'helping' me with my shoelaces, licking plastic bags, and climbing inside canvas tote bags. Other than that, he really isn't interested in toys. Unless they're free flying moths, or eight legged freaks. That's fine with me, I welcome any animal that devours spiders.
