Happy 6th Birthday, Kai and Pukini!

Happy 6th Birthday, Kai and Pukini! It's unreal that it's been 6 years we've adopted you, on Memorial Day Weekend of 2017. We love you like family. Stay tuned on the blog, and Instagram and Facebook, some upcoming toys we bought for Kai and Pukini, that we will post in the upcoming weeks for their 6th Birthday on the blog.

Got (Cat) Milk?

This was the last gift we bought for Christmas of 2022, for our cats, Kai and Pukini. It is called Whiskas Catmilk, or a cute way of saying, Got (Cat) Milk? Sadly this was not the results we were hoping for, and it was a dud of a present for our cats. We bought a three pack of the cat milk, and put it in a bowl, and both cats, Kai and Pukini just sniffed at it and walked away. These cartons of cat milk were 6.75 oz each, and a price of $12.90, so $4.30 each pack. After we tried the one carton of milk, we threw the carton away. According to the description it is: Whiskas Catmilk for Cats and Kittens. Easy to digest. 98% Lactose reduced. Quality sealed drink.

So we called up our local animal clinic and thought, why don’t we just donate the other two pack cartons to some cats/kittens that could really use it. Unfortunately, they couldn’t use it, and so they recommended our local PetSmart, and than I decided to call them. So I called PetSmart, and there is a lady who comes in and who could use the milk for the cats, she takes care of. I am just glad I did a good thing for some animals out there to enjoy some milk. Like I’ve said before, if your cat(s) don’t like it, maybe there is some kittens or cats that will enjoy it in your family.

Zipline Cat Toy!

Zipline Cat Toy, and yep you heard that right. Unfortunately of all of our two leftover Christmas toys for our cats, this was one of the two that was a dud of a toy. The other one I will put on the blog next week. We were so excited to take this toy out of it’s box and it’s officially called: The Ultimate Kat Toy is the only zip-line, remote control operated cat toy with interchangeable lures to interact with your feline friend. The remote control worked very well, to move the cat toy on the zipline pretty easy, fast and smooth. Well we were hoping for more, and is was sadly a disappointment. Now saying that, your cat(s) might really like this toy, you be the judge.

We wanted to go to Etsy for some different kinds of toys for our boys. We put one end of the zipline around the door knob leading out to our garage, and the other zipline end to the side door knob of our door. Just like that, you can order three different Kat finishes: Black, gray, and white color, and we had chosen black for our Kat finish to be on the cat zipline. Plus Kai, our cat who is a black color of a cat, said to pick black for the cat finish on the zipline. You had these attachments to put on: The iridescent tassel, the white turkey feather and the plushy worm. We definitely put this feather on, and the cats couldn’t believe what they were seeing. They are seeing something of a cat figure head, on a zipline but moving up and down and like a zipline, but back and forth. They weren’t scared, just intrigued and curious about it.

I am so glad I got some photos and a video of it. Can’t wait to show it to you. We played with it, for five minutes or so, and the cats, Kai and Pukini just stared at it going back and forth. Even with the attachments on there, they just watched it and that was that. It was pretty expensive, but we wanted a toy and some uniqueness to it, but not worth the price for sure. Our hope was, that our cats would chase the zipline toy back and forth, and more. I guess we should be lucky that they seemed curious, but that was about it. I liked the inventive idea, of putting this cat face like toy on a zipline, to have it remotely go back and forth. The remote worked very well thankfully. I liked that the zipline was approximately fifteen feet long from one end of the garage door knob, to the side door knob. I’ve seen some five star reviews, and some really liked it, and there were some two star reviews, that people or their cats didn’t like it. Overall, no matter how excited you are about a new toy to try out as well with your cats, some toys are not going to be the best you want them to be for your cat.

Shake, Rattle… and Throw!

Here’s another one of our Christmas gifts for our cats we bought. What I liked was, it had a nice package assortment of three different colors of mice: Gray, black, and white, with cute little ears, noses, eyes, and tails with rattling sounds to them. Also there is twelve mice in the pack, which is a good thing in case our cats, Kai and Pukini lose any mice under the furniture, etc. The mice are so nice and little, with a good value for the how many are in the package, for seven dollars for twelve mice. As soon as I took these two mice out of the pack, I shook, rattled them, and then tossed them against the blue chair, and Kai than started pawing at them right away. Can’t wait to show the photos and video’s of the boys playing with these toys.

Besides throwing the toys at the chair, I threw them on the floor or anywhere for the cats to play with. Recently, I found a purple strap in my dresser drawer, and took a black mouse and tied its tail to the strap, and dangled it in front of Pukini. Just think of tetherball, but using a mouse to bat it around and have fun. I loved dangling the mouse in front of him to have that hunting, and killing instinct to the cat to go after their prey.

What was nice, are the mice were really soft, and plush, and is perfect for kittens and cats to play with at any age. Also, they measure two inches from nose to end, and almost five inches from nose to tail. You never know, these mice can give your cats some exercise, depending on how much your cat likes to play with toy mice. Besides the twelve pack, you can even buy a sixty pack of mice as well. As with any toy, make sure no pieces of the mice are bitten, or torn off, so your cat doesn’t swallow any parts of the toy. Enjoy watching you cats/kittens chasing these mice all over your house.

Leopard Printed Chaser Wand!

I call our next item for the blog: Mini Leopard Printed Chaser Wand that I love to play with the cats, and they enjoy it. I don’t know the name of this toy when we bought it, and sadly I can’t find the one online, we bought years ago. Thankfully I did find this longer one, with a bell that’s a leopard printed wand toy. I wished we had bought this longer one, so I could have it reach both cats father away. The one we have is the same as this longer version regarding the description: It is a nice soft fabric, and is lightweight, and is as tough as one of our male cats are, and it’s not torn apart with Kai’s long claws. What I would have liked was a bell on our previous one, making it have a more jingle like sound for the boys to get excited about. I love to take it out and just twirl and twirl the wand up and down, and side to side so both cats would chase, jump, or paw and bat at it. They are quick and will grab at it hard and, and especially Kai, and not to want to let go, like it’s a striped animal of prey. The one I play with is about two feet, and this longer one is fifty-two inches, and I would have wanted that longer one, but glad I have this toy instead.

Overall, a nice fun toy to play with, and so you know it’s not on a wired wand, and it’s on a thicker and wide fabric like wand, so it doesn’t get all tangled up on. I like the eye catching cream, orange, and black colors of it, and it doesn’t have any roughness or sharp edges or anything. If your pets need exercise, this wand will deliver, and just watch your cats move from all over to catch this fast moving wand toy. So far, so good nothing has come off this toy, and just keep an eye that nothing get’s torn of the wand, or more. Finally, it’s a great deal of close to $9.00 for your wallet, and see what your family, and your cat(s) think of this fun Leopard Printed Chaser Wand. Have a good chase.
