We've had these "kitty bird" cat toys for some 20 years, it seems.
Little padded, weighted disk to which a few feathers, four or five
inches long, *were* attached.
To a very large extent all our cats have pretty much ignored them. But wife's newest kittie, Fudge, has gone crazy for them: attacks, tosses
into the air, plays "kitty hocky" on the kitchen floor, etc.
So in a month, he's worn them to a nub -- feathers pretty much gone!
For the last month, every time I pass a pet store, I've parked the car
and checked out their cats toys -- no "Kitty Birds" -- at least, not the
like ones that Fudge loves.
Have found a few web pages but the web stores don't appear to be
currently active (pages dated 1998, etc).
Anybody out there have a cat with such a "kitty bird?" Have a source?
Any help would be appreciated. Name and phone number would be great!
Thanks in advance,
SAG
