Why do we bother buying toys


When they're perfectly happy with something like a loo roll!

LOL i think it's more for our sake than theirs tbh w/you
Kuan Yin loves the little plastic things you pull off gallons of milk or juice bottles. She carries her "prey" all around the house with her butt all proud in the air like she's a wild huntress

Re: Why do we bother buying toys


Tink's quite right - it's more for our sake! Bottle tops, pieces of string, bits of wool, scrunched up paper and of course loo roll tubes - all good fun and very acceptable. Not forgetting those boxes either!

Good to see Leia has good ecological sense and likes to recycle!

Great pic. I do agree they will be happy with anything interesting - not necessarily expensive!

Great pic and what a patient lady to wait until you had used the loo Roll. Cleo doesn't always wait and the bathroom can sometimes look like a snowstorm hit it!

Lol, Cats' Staff, that took me back. When Dandy was a kitten he discovered the fun of unrolling the paper; spent a long time with a rubber band on it till he realized it didn't work anymore!
