What type of pet toys or gadgets do you have for you favorite pets?

Those all look like remarkably bad ideas. Especially the one that recommends leaving pets locked in a car. Where do people get these ideas?

When it comes to pet stuff, we go low tech. A fuzzy thing on a string with a bell attached keeps the occupied for ages. A little stuff rat or bird toy is good too.

I seen one guy one time get into serious trouble by the RSPCA for leaving his dogs locked up in the car when he was in the shop.

Well, one of my cats will chase tufts of her own fur around the house. But we go low tech. If you have a cat, get an old sock, and stuff it full of dried catnip and then tie it shut with string or something. Our cats LOVE catnip-stuffed socks.

I don't spend a lot of money on cat toys. They love a plain old box. They go crazy amusing themselves in it and then fall asleep.

our cats like to have fun outside when they run and chase birds.
