My Cats Favorite Chew Toys and Links to Purchase

Ranked #724 in Pets & Animals, #19,678 overall

Meet our cats, Muffin and Sunshine; they like chew toys!

Our two cats, Muffin and Sunshine, both like things that they can carry around. Sunshine, our Tortie, especially likes things that she can chew on. So I purchased a small dog chew bone, that she really liked.

Then one day, when I was at the pet store, I saw Cat Chew Toys. There were two in a pack; purr-fect; one for each cat.

I'm the human.

This is Sunshine.

Cheryl and SunshineI got my first cat when I was two years old, and have loved cats ever since. Cats have been many things to me over the years. They started out as play things, they were so much more exciting than dolls; the cats moved. But I eventually learned that they really didn't like to play dress up. They later became my confidant when I went to school. They always listened intently while I talked and didn't tell any secrets. Today, they are a joy for me to watch them play, and to snuggle on my lap. My world is so much more complete, because of cats.

A few of Muffin and Sunshine's favorite things are these dental chew toys.

These are the chew toys that I had mentioned earlier.

These chew toys are covered in a mesh, and have shoe lace like strings that come out from them. Both cats love chewing on these; but who knows where all they take them? So I've actually tied a couple of the chew toys up so at least some of them can easily be found.

This is one of the dental chew toys that is tied to a door knob.

Update, they got this chew toy loose from its string.

Now they have one that is attached to a longer string, with large beads also intermixed on the cord, that they drag around and play tug-a-war with. So cute.

I also hold a kids soft toothbrush while the cat gets in some chewing action.

Choose from one or two in a pack.

While the cat chews, I get in a little brushing action.

Each cat has their own toothbrush, and I write their initial on the side of the handle. I rinse the toothbrushes off after each use.

Do not use any toothpaste meant for people. If you want to use toothpaste, purchase some that is made for cats.

Muffin and Sunshine

The thing that I love most about Muffin and Sunshine is that they are so full of life.

My favorite things to do with Muffin and Sunshine depends on what I'm doing.

If I'm ready for a break, my favorite thing to do is play with them.

Playing with them can be anything from throwing a small ball for them to conquer, to batting a ball around the cat ball toy, to holding a cat chew toy for them to chew on.

If I'm ready to relax, I love it when one or both of them curl up in my lap. : )

Muffin and Sunshine came from a place called P.U.R.R.

Muffin and Sunshine enjoy their own scratching furniture.

P.U.R.R. stands for People United for Rescue and Rehabilitation. You can read more about Muffin's and Sunshine's early days in their new home here.

    I'm family of CreativeArtist. Sunny and Muffy love everything listed on this lens, but their new favorite "chew toy" is plastic ear plugs. They're not supposed to have access to said ear plugs, but somehow they still find them.

    Yes, husband has been told to locate the ear plugs to a better place.

    Chew toys specifically meant for cats is something I never thought to look for. Makes sense, though. My cats like to chew. Their favorite things to chew (which I do not recommend, just that they do when they get the chance to do so) include rubber bands and cardboard boxes. Now that I know there are chew toys, I'll have to look for them for my kitties.

    Your lens is very informative. I have had cats all my life and never really thought of a chew toy for them. I have a cat now named Cracker Jack. Your lens inspired me to create a lens all about Cracker Jack! Thank You! :)

    After reading this, I realize that our cat (Olivia Felini) may need a chew toy. Thank you for making this lens.

    Olivia Felini, such a cute name. You are very welcome. Thanks for your comment.

    I always thought chew toys were more of a dog thing. Hah, cool lens!

    Boots was the chewer in our cat family ... she seriously chewed up all the corners of the woodwork on the shelves in our patio ... I tried various chew toys, but she persisted.

    Well, I dont have any cats that shew any except the wild grasses. But they seems to enjoy chewing my toe T.T. Maybe they smells like a fermented fish or something, LoL

    Even the wild cats like to play and bite my shoe/sandal, wonder what they taste. Gotta find out why

    Loved meeting your kitties! We have that swat track kitty toy - Clawdia loves it, but Meowsers (our other cat) ignores it most of the time.

    We have Misty Blue whom we adopted as a rambunctious little kitten. She used to love to fetch and carry around crumpled paper. Also liked to stand on her hind legs and bat the dog's nose with her two front paws. She has grown more sedate as she has gotten older.

    Muffin and Sunshine remind me of my Oreo and Dandy, whose favorite toys are bags and boxes - and sometimes my feet under the covers at night!
  • CreativeArtist Dec 30, 2010 @ 8:21 am | delete
    Both of our cats are lovers of boxes. Sunshine likes to chew on the cardboard, and Muffin likes to lay on them. Oh, and Sunshine likes playing with my husbands feet under the covers too.

    Fantabulous lens!
