Happy Monday everyone! Today is fun and games day and I found an easy treat dispenser you can make for your kitty. I saw it on Pinterest, but it was actually from a kitty blog that I had never heard of. Here is the link: http://thecatpinky.blogspot.com/2010/11/new-home-made-cat-toy.html I was hoping to have found another blog, but it doesn’t look like there were any posts made since 2010.
I washed out an empty soda bottle and cut 3 holes in it with a small knife. Amazingly I didn’t cut myself. I had to use the blow dryer because there was still a little water in it. Then I added treats and put it on the floor: 
As you can see, it was a hit. It took them a long time to get the treats out too.
We have more letters to Santa:
Joanie 
Prancie
Phoebe said to remind you to comment today or tomnorrow if you haven’t yet for a chance to win a crocheted item for your mom ( or dad). Have a great day everyone!
Brilliant (and inexpensive!) idea for a treat dispenser! Love it!
Hugs, Sammy
Thanks Sammy ( and your mom)!
I wish I could find a treat to use like that, that isn’t dry. Chuck cannot tolerate any kibble or dry pellet-like things, so I’m at a loss. Any suggestions out there?
That is too bad 🙁 Could he have small pieces of chicken or hamburg? )That is all I can think of.
The mom made that treat dispenser for us awhile back. She would put our regular dry food in it so that we didn’t eat so fast. And it worked!
That is a great idea, I put a golf ball in Joanie’s food, but this would slow her down even more.
Wow! That treat dispenser is a PAWSOME idea! 😀 Oh, and we LOVE Joanie’s letter to Santa. It could have been written by Roxy herself… MOL 😉 Have a wonderful Monday, sweeties! xx Roxy & Tigerlino <3
🙂 That is funny, I guess Roxy loves her treats like Joanie does.
My Sister Gracie would be great at that game, she can get treats out of anything!
You will have to tell mom to make it for her.
I am going to make some of these for my grandcats for Christmas as I always buy them lots of treats for them as their gift. Love reading about you kitties hope you all have a great day!
Thank you, it is so sweet of you to read the blog even though you don’t have cats. You do have a lot of grandkitties though so that is a great idea to make it for their Christmas gifts.
It looks like the homemade cat toy was a big hit!
It sure was.
That looks like a great toy. We will have to try that. The dry food in it sounds like a good idea. Have a great Monday.
Thank you and I hope you have a nice Monday too.
What a great idea! And your kitties are gorgeous.
Thank you 🙂
I love DIY upcycled cat things.
Thank you-me too 🙂
My human tried this – and it drove Binga crazy! She would not leave it alone until the last treat was gone!
I think it is really frustrating because you can see the treats unlike some of the ones you buy that are colored and not see through.
I have used old butter containers (small ones) for the same purpose!
YAY! I am glad you were able to comment and I hope you were able to sign up for the emails. That is a good idea too, I will have to try that with the butter container.
What a smart (and cheap) idea of toy ! Purrs
Thank you-with 15 cats, cheap is important.
A treat dispenser!
We need to get mom to do that!!
Wonder if there would be cat fights 😉 heehee
Purrs Georgia and Julie,
Treasure and JJ
They are so easy to make that your mom could make one for each of you.
Anything that dispenses treats sounds pretty cool to us! Cute photos kitties!
Thank you 🙂
Whoa! I wouldn’t like having to work for my treats. The turkey leg came today. Thank you so much. TW is waiting to open hers until Christmas cos I told her that’s all I’m getting her. MOL!
Keisha, you are a funny kitty 🙂 I am glad your prizes arrived, thanks for letting me know.
Oh,those are great! We have a plastic herb jar TBT drilled a few holes 1/2″ holes in, and then he found an egg-shaped one at a store.
We have that egg too- only one of my kitties really loves it and a couple more will whap it once in a while.
That’s a neat idea for kitties who are little piggies. I don’t eat treats so I won’t be getting a treat dispenser.
You sound like my KaTwo, she won’t eat treats either.
Glad everypawdy liked da bottle tweats. 🙂 Can’t read da letters, but weez sure hope all yous dweams come twu.
Luv ya’
Dezi and Lexi
You are so sweet Dezi and Lexi and your mom too 🙂
I am going to have to try that for the Puffs! Thanks so much!
I am sure it will be a hit.
