Rosie finally got a turn on her Dad’s lap.
I know it is Wordless Wednesday, but I wanted to share a link with you about the safety of pet toys. It is sad that there are no regulations for pet toys. I always cut the bells off of toys and I throw away the balls with bells for fear they will fall out. The article from prezzies.com has a list of the most dangerous toys for cats and dogs. To see it, click here.
and we join the Cat Blogosphere link every day.
Glad Rosie got her turn on his lap. Thanks for pet safe tips
Thank you. 🙂 XO
I love the way Rosie always looks right into the camera! 🙂 <3
She is a good model. 🙂 XO
Inneresting article and I’m glad my Mylar balls are safe toys. TW also cuts bells and stuff off the toys. Luckily I never ate the foam rockets. I can’t really play with wand toys since my claws get caught in them. I once almost got the string wrapped around my neck but TW saved me. I wouldn’t play wand toy for years after than. I’m surprised lasers aren’t listed since shown in a cat’s eyes, they could be dangerous.
Good point about lasers. 🙂 XO
Rosie and Dad both look like they’re enjoying lap time. 🙂
That article is really interesting, and very extensive. We’re hyper vigilant about making sure our cats’ toys are as safe as possible.
Yes, they were. Glad you are good about protecting your kitty. XO
Fortunately, my favorite toys are ones that my human is there to supervise, or not on this list!
That is good. 🙂
Rosie looks very happy to be on her dad’s lap.
She loves her dad. 🙂 XO
Thanks for that list….unfortunately people forget that the little dangly things and plastic balls with things inside can BREAK and the pieces can be eaten and that is just not good. You’re a thoughtful Mom!! Rosie has the best seat in the house (and warmest).
Hugs, Teddy
Thank you. 🙂 XO
I reposted the pet toy safety post on Facebook. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. I guess most of us can find at least one or two pet toys to modify or toss out among those our cats’ and dogs’ toys.
Thank you for sharing. It is sad that there are so many dangerous toys out there.
Awww, I am glad Rosie got some time on her Dad’s lap. Very nice of you to share you toy safety tips and a link to more info.
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Lovely photo ~ and you’re so right about toys. How often the toys I buy wind up looking nothing like the toy I give to June after I’ve removed all the ” high risk stuff”!
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Wonderful info, Ellen, how do I miss these blogs? Will look more closely at mama’s emails!!! She doesn’t like bells either!
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Rosie! Good for you, sweetheart!
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Rosie is such a cute little poser! Thanks for the tips about pet toys.
Thank you. And you’re welcome. XO
Rosie looks very happy. Reesie eats a lot of “odd” things so Mom has to be super careful with our toys.
Yes, I am sure you do. XO
Yay Rosie that is a most coveted place for your photos!!
Our first cat was more into checking out way to many things that were not safe. I learned never to buy toys that had any kind of pieces and parts that could be bitten off.
Hugs Cecilia
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Rosie looks happy to be on dad’s lap.
Great tip. It’s our job to keep our babies safe.
Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a purrfect Wordless Wednesday, Ellen. Scritches to the kitties. 💞
Thank you. 🙂 XO
There she is, being a daddy’s girl!
I’ve cut so many things from cat toys over the years, and have thrown some store-bought toys straight into the garbage, ones that were gifted to me but I didn’t purchase.
That is a good idea, I do the same.
Oh sweet photo of you on Dad’s lap ~ cozy and warm ~ Xo
Wishing you love in your days,

Thank you. 🙂 XO
Rosie looks quite comfy on her Dad’s lap.
She was. 🙂
Aside from a feather on a stick, my cats don’t like “bought” toys. They like the catnip sacks I make with no added stuff although they will steal the occasional bottle top. It’s good to be vigilant.
I agree, it is good to be vigilant.
Ellen,
With the weather being so cold, there’s nothing like being in a warm lap or at the very least snuggled up against. 🙂
Very true. 🙂 XO
I do the same thing. I don’t trust the bells on toys. Cute photo!
Thank you. 🙂 XO
What a sweet pair. Your images always make me smile. Be well! And thank you for the list.
Rosie and Dad look wonderful together.
Thanks for the reminder that sime items are just not good for pets to play with.
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Sorry that first comment showed up as a reply to another comment, i’m a butterfingers today.
No problem. 🙂
Good girl, Rosie!
Thank you. 🙂
You look very happy sweet Rosie! That’s quite the list, thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome. 🙂
Good for you, Rosie! And you look quite comfy.
That sure s a long list of unsafe things for our furry ones to play with.
Thanks for sharing that link.
Rosie sure has a comfy cozy place to take a nap:)
You’re welcome. XO
Excellent point about the bells. I’ve never had a cat that ate non-food things, but I can definitely see the danger.
Same here, but my niece’s cat used to eat anything string like including tank tops with spaghetti straps and charger cords.
Yes, it’s sad that there are no regulations for pet toys. Some of them are hazardous!
Yes, we need to regulate them ourselves. XO
