HAHAHA, this is an underrated comment!

Wow, a 6m x 5m x 2m catio sounds amazing! Your cats must love having all that space to explore. 🐾 And I love your idea of sprinkling kibble around the house-that’s such a fun way to keep them active and entertained! (I think that could be the 9th hack)! ;) If you have any more tips, feel free to drop them in the comments, I’m sure other cat parents would appreciate it too. The fact that you're always looking for more tips just shows what an awesome cat parent you are-your kitties are lucky to have you! 😊

@@Pepperprojectz Has towers with hammocks and scratching posts. We put a Japanese Maple tree, only grows to 2m. They love the leaves when they bloom and its safe for them to play with :)

Haha, classic cat move! They really know how to keep us guessing, don’t they?

Oh WoW, thank you so much, we were not expecting this at all. You're increadibly kind. We'll put this towards making our videos better. Thank you. <3

haha, that's awesome, I didn't know that, I'll have to do some reading! Thank you for the tip!

So true, this is an important tip!

Thanks so much for the awesome tip! 🌳 Appreciate you sharing this idea!

Absolutely, it really shows how deep their bonds are. When our first cat passed, even Cookie, who wasn’t her littermate, became deeply depressed. Cats’ social nature is often underestimated, and we hope to bring more awareness to this through our videos. Thanks so much for your support, @AnnonyMOusIE! ❤️

Thank you so much 😸😻

Our cats worship it! 🤔😂

Hahaha! 🤣 Playtime ready! Glad that was useful! ❤️

Winner!! 🏆 Damn that was fast! Haha 🙀😻

Wand toys can be dangerous on their own, and should probably be put away when a human isn't holding one end. This is as true of the commercial toys as anything home-made. I mimic my cat's favorite wand toy by buying thin, flexible plastic wands and adding a rubber skirt for fishing lures to one end. I make my own because I can rarely find them for sale...anywhere. Again, should be kept away from the cat when a human isn't around, as they can and *will* chew pieces of the rubber off and swallow them.

Also, remember the "Lego test". Drop any toy on the ground and step on it, hard, with a bare foot. If you don't want to step on it again, in the dark on the way to the bathroom, either keep it locked up, or get rid of it. (I'm very fortunate that my Cleopatra's favorite toy is foam rubber balls. I highly recommend them, even though they aren't DIY.)

Thank you so much for sharing these valuable insights! 🐾 And the ‘Lego test’-what a brilliant rule of thumb! 😂 I’m definitely going to remember that one. Cleopatra is lucky to have you looking out for her, and those foam rubber balls sound like a hit! If you have any more tips, feel free to drop them, I’m sure other cat parents would love to hear them!

There's a small blue cover on the side of the toy, see 4:03. I hope this helps! :)

They truly do brighten your world! We love talking to our 3! Thank you so much for watching and sharing your experience.

Whoop that’s awesome! Thank you so much for watching! We're thrilled it was helpful and that you enjoyed it ❤️🥰. How do we always end up with so many odd socks?!, haha! Thanks for subscribing, and see you again soon!

They are pretty awesome! I know this sounds mental but we bought 1000 of them recently and set our cats a series of challenges. If you like ping pong balls I think you’ll like that video hehe! Thank you for watching and commenting on the video. ❤️

Wow, cats are so strange, haha! Thanks so much for sharing what your cat loves-a hunting cat is a happy cat 😸

Don't worry you're not alone in that,, our eldest Cookie is increadibly selective! If you haven't seen it already, we posted a video about how to make older toys interesting again. In there we talked about different categories and how to reset that interest. Otherwise if you don't it ends up feeling like one endless treadmill of a toy search, ha! Anyway, enough of my ramble. Thank you for watching and let us know how the DIY toy making goes! :)

@@Pepperprojectz That's actually the first video of yours that I saw! It definitely inspired me to spice things up for my cat. :) And I can officially report that the tube towers at 8:44 were a success! Instead of a wood piece, I used a $1 side plate from Dollar General as the base, and it was just enough weight to hold up to some pawing. It was lots of fun! I'm looking forward to bringing it out occasionally for some added enrichment.

Oh that's sooo cool and really good to hear! <3 hahaha the tube towers are so much fun. Glad it was useful. Thank you for watching and commenting :)

Ooo good question. We've now got 2x black cat trees, from different cat tree brands; - rhrpets.co.uk (amzn.to/3Bl99hP) - cattree.uk (cattree.uk/product/cat-tree-royalty-plus-antracite/) We ended up ordering our 2nd cat tree from rhr (mainly because they had decent delivery times). But both have been solid so far. I'm not sure where you are in the world but I THINK both of these brands can deliver across most of the world. We recently also bought a ton of wall attachments (rhrpets.co.uk) which look & feel awesome although we haven't had the time to put them up / shoot anything yet. But hopefully we'll have a video on that up sometime in the future. Here's a few of the bits we got. :) amzn.to/4eao50O amzn.to/3BcM94H amzn.to/3ZvQDgM If you get one, let me know how you get on. We'd love to review these types of things in the future so hearing sub comments helps to both know where to look to gauge real feedback. I hope that helps. A & K

3 Ouch! They’re expensive but yeah, as you said, if they solve the problem then it’s well worth the money. Have you tried the metal bowls? We throw them in the dishwasher although again, it’s ANOtHER expense lol 😂 🫠 Good to hear we weren’t the only ones having these experiences with the button lol! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment on the video ❤️

And that’s what makes you a good cat parent. You care. ❤️

❤️

U replied so fast :D

Haha was waiting for you lol 😂😂😂

.

Again ? :3

21 years old, wow, I bet you both have a very close bond! I hope, as your elder, they’re keeping close tabs on you 😉

They’re such cuties! 🥰😻

Waiting for us, wondering why they’ve not been fed on time! 😂😭

So cute aren’t they! ❤️

@@Pepperprojectzyes!! ❤️

❤️

They’re soo cute! 🥰

Awe she sounds very cute. Well done for rescuing her! As cats get older they tend to play less and play for an older cat will look a lot different to a younger one. Cats are crepuscular, which means they’re most active first thing in the morning and late at night, equally they tend to play more when hungry, it could be worth trying playtime around these times. Equally if she used to go out and hunt, she can probably tell the difference between a real and a fake mouse (for example) so you might have to really try hard to mimic a prey’s movement (think moving out of line of sight, under things and quick bursts of energy for stopping). Some cats prefer types of prey or toys that resemble them (think worms, birds, insects and mice). Try a few different types of wand attachments. Lastly and this is something to check with the vet but it might be worth checking whether there’s signs of arthritis. I’m sure it’s fine but worth double checking. Cookie, our eldest had slowed a lot because of this but after some meds, she started acting like a much younger cat again. :) Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment on the video!

hahaha thanks buddy! <3

Oh wow, that's impressive! I imagine a lot of cats have benefited from your long career. Also massive agree on the string. Out of interest, have you seen some of the newer toys that are trending on social media? We reviewed the Turbo Tail 2.0. Be interesting to get your thoughts on that one if you see it. :) Also, what's your fav toy? p.s. thank you for watching and taking the time to comment on the video. :)

Thank you for your thoughtful comment! You bring up a fantastic point about the connection between pet care and personal wellness. It’s definitely something I’d like to explore in more detail in a future video! We’re so grateful you took the time to share your idea and thoughts! Wishing you all the best! 😊🐾💖✨

@@Pepperprojectz maybe you could have a quick conversation with chatgpt about fun ways to combine self care and quality time with pets and see what pops? 💕✌️

Haha will do!

Hahaha we had the same thing. On the bottom is a sensitivity switch to make it more sensitive. Once your cat moves their head out the way, it will close regardless of whether your cat has got their head in or not. It’s very much a ‘slam the door shut type of deal’. (Your cats head won’t get stuck or anything).

When we get home, we’ll record it :)

Just tested it between 1-2 seconds. And yeah. The lid will close it even if they got their head in just in time.

Omg, I've never heard of a toy like that, it sounds hilarious! I'll have to do some research to find out if we can get hold of one. Like you said there must be more modern versions (which hopefully use less batteries). I'd love to test it. Mmm, we have the same problem with catnip toys. If we only get one, they get all territorial about it, ha! Yeah, play is so increadibly important, plus, honestly, it's great fun for us as well. You were very early this time lol! A new record?! Thank you for your support :)

Actually lasers, especially automatic ones, can be extremely frustrating for the cat and even lead to mental problems, so if you can't find one that's for the best... 😐 Because a cat can't actually catch it, it causes a lot of frustration, but the cat's instincts keep forcing them to try fruitlessly over and over, yet never yielding any result... Cats need to finish the play session by catching the prey, biting it, etc.. laser toy doesn't provide that whatsoever

@@vanilla7349 that makes alot of sense to me. I am glad I saw your comment because a part of me feels almost cruel as I walk into a wall of the most common sense I have never thought about at all. If they can't catch it we won't use it I appreciate the information my cats are not going to be subjected to that kind of frustration ever again.

Hey @blckhll1082, it’s called a tower feeder (there’s a link on the video description). The one in the video is a ‘dog’ version as we picked it up from our local pet store but the one in the link is the same apart from the colour!

@@Pepperprojectz Ah brilliant, thanks a lot!

Anytime! If you get it, let me know how you get on!

Massive plus one. We'll add that as a comment overlay on the next ones. Thank you for pointing it out.

👍 toy assortments are good options. But be aware there’s often toys, like tinsel ones that are dangerous. Typically these types of toys are not sold by reputable manufacturers rather they are white labelled products thrown together by people who don’t understand or potentially care about cats.

Awwwee thank you 🙏 ❤️❤️

Aweee thank you. They do love playtime haha!

hahahaha so true. They knew it was there but kept coming back to try and tap toys under it. They could very easy jump it but seemed to prefer headbutting it... weird lol!

Awe, thank you Suzettereynolds3993, appreciate the lovely words. Oh interesting, I've seen it advertised (Sheer fun for cats) but not got round to ordering it. It kinda reminds me of when you change the bed sheets and they go ape sh*t haha! The rug looks really similar to the trixie version we picked up a few months back (but still haven't got round to doing a video on). Thank you for these recommendations, we love getting new toys to try and write about (especially good/fun toys)! We'll add these to our list. Appreciate the support and for taking the time to watch and comment on our video! <3

haha cats are difficult to understand at the best of times. The main thing is you're playing with her keeping her enterained! If you get time, we reviewed The Cat Dancer toy, its a solid recommendation given it's low cost and how much our cats love it. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment on our videos. Let me know how you get on with the Tower!
