When I was renting a room from Jewel's former owner, I discovered something new about Jewel. I don't remember exactly how it came about, but I suspect I had gotten the toy out to play with Carmine or Milita, and then went into Jewel's former owner's room to visit with him and Jewel. The toy was a pole with cloth-like strings hanging off the end. I started moving the toy around by Jewel, and to my shock, she starting batting at it! It turns out she really liked the toy, so I started getting it out more often to play with her.
It always made me happy to see Jewel enjoy a nice play session.
Do your cats enjoy fishing pole toys?
We are glad Jewel had fun with the wand toy! We LOVE wand toys! They are the best!
ReplyDeleteChuck likes when a use a wand toy like I'm casting for fish, while Angel will sit up like a meerkat if I dangle the wand toy over her head.
ReplyDeleteOur tribe of 5 enjoy varied toys, the older cats do like fishing poles, one of the kittens likes milk carton plastic rings, our 3-yr old rescue loves anything she can dig out of the junk drawer and Alberto likes to sit in the toy box with an expression that says, "None of these items are worthy."
ReplyDeleteyes, our babies like to play with fishing pole toys.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter!
Of course she loved it! What a fun discovery.
ReplyDeleteAll the cats here love the wand toys. Even the feral cat who now lives in the house loves to play with the wand toy.

It is nice to know that Jewel enjoyed playing. Flynn prefers kickers and playing catch.
ReplyDeleteMudpie's favorite toys are wands!
ReplyDeleteWe like those kind of toys too but it gets complicated when 6 of us want to play at once!
ReplyDeleteThat kind of toy is Pipo's fave and its good exercise too!
ReplyDeleteWe love playing with anything that's on the end of a stick or pole.
ReplyDeleteI'm amazed at how of my cats will have very different preferences for toys! I've not tried fishing pole toys yet, I need to try one!
ReplyDeleteMousie is highly competitive with the stick toy. Competitive to the point of mania! Even if I don't have it out yet, if she here's the bell in my bag, she starts to pace!
ReplyDeleteI am glad Jewel got to have some fun, it sounds like her life was boring before you.
ReplyDeleteI guess all cats have their favorites! Mine like wands too.
ReplyDeleteWe think Jewel had EXCELLENT taste in toys. Faraday's fave is the strip of long fabric attached to a pole - his "snakey"!
