Any toys that can potentially be meals I always put away before going to bed (like the mice and feathers). That doesnt mean she cant eat them when we're not watching, but I feel better.

I have a crackle rat that Amber LOVES to carry around at a certain time making muffled little 'mrows'. It is weird. I HAVE to put that away otherwise she will wake us up by bringing it into our room.

This is one of her toy mouse and the crackle rat. Notice the missing nose and bitten off tail (it used to be longer with a knot at the end)

LOL I like that purple thing, its cute!
Thanks! i dont know why it turned out purplish, its actually gray, must have been the lighting (sunlight). I have a Garfield one the same way, with the string arms and legs! I think I bought it mostly for me though, Amber doesnt usually play with it...

Leo loves those little wiffle balls with the bells in them. He chases them all around the house making such a racket! When they fall down the stairs he runs after them and picks them up with his mouth and carries them up again. Like a little dog

Aragorn likes to carry around a "Puff ball" which is a toy that he came with from the Shelter. Legolas just tries to steal what ever Aragorn has and then they start wrestling over it.

Aragorn won't even let Legolas near that Puff ball and he growls at him.

Luna carries around her little furry toy mice around, but that's it.
It's so cute. Hey, better that she has that than a real "kill."

Toes likes those bath poofs too. Everyone gives them to him now.

As far as the peanuts go, I think it's the texture when they bite them. I'd recommend you buy the edible ones (made from corn and taste terrible!) if your cat likes them. We used to get those at work occasionally.

My friend has one cat who totes everything around and fetches if he is in the mood. He also takes all of his toys and drowns them in the water dish. Literally EVERYTHING goes for a swim!

Faile carries her fuzzy mice and the rubber balls she loves to play with. She also tosses the mice over her head then chases them. One night, I heard her chirp (she doesn't meow), when I looked at her she had one of the balls at her feet. I've also seen her carry them up the steps. She loves to play.

I just completely played fetch with Saki for like 10 minutes. I kept throwing his mouse and he would run and go get it, I'd call him back and he'd bring it back and drop it at my feet!
We did this like 20 times in a row! LMAO! Pretty soon I didnt even have to call him he'd just bring it back, drop it at me and wait!!! Zoey has done this occasionally but maybe only a couple times and nothing like this! Saki's only 3 months old! LOL! *proud mom face*

My 3 cats don't carry their toys (stuffed toys, balls, strings, sticks). They play with them but they lose interest very quickly.
What they do carry in their mouths are usually their gifts to me. These qifts will be : live birds, lizards, frogs & once in a while a dead mouse!

By tomorrow it'll probably be back up in the hallway or something.
Came across this old thread...and really laughed. Maddie is a toy carrier. She travels all around the apt to find the proper place to play with her "catch of the day." However, my favorite is her discoverery of Franz's large wire brush. It is sooo heavy, and those wire bristles YIKES! She actually picks the brush up by the bristles, carries it a few feet, drops it from the weight, then repeats until she gets to her desired destination. Guess it hurts me, more than it hurts her. Got to give her a "A" for determination though.
