Has anyone got any links to any websites with projects for cats?

I don’t think there’s a thread about this but my apologies if its been done before…

Has anyone got any links to any websites with projects for cats? E.g. scratching posts, cat toys, cat treats etc?

Or does anyone have any easy-ish ideas of stuff to make? I get bored easily and like to make stuff for maverick who will occasionally even play with it if I’m lucky!

Got a few scratching post websites to start the ball rolling:

http://jj.cartah.washington.edu/cats...cgi?01+09+08+1
http://annelisabeth.com/oldsite/cat1.htm -- loads of good links. Been using this as inspiration for my new cat palace!

And some cat toys:

Here's a very easy project for ya! Take a 1-2 foot piece of a feather boa, a wand and a bead that will fit over the end of the wand. Glue it all together with super glue. I paint the wand with children-safe paints. If you make these, put them away when not in use or your cat will slowly eat the feathers.

I bought a patterrn to make a cat bed but it also showed several other designs. I can't recall if it was McCAlls, Butterrick though

hmm. im currently using toiletpaper rolls and kitchen rolls and trying to construct something out of it!

bumping up this thread as need some ideas for cat toys/ things to make for a friends cat!

I am useing old soda boxes and such making a tower with that and duct tape for the kids lol they like it.

Can you knit?! I have tonnes of patterns that include knitting! I'll have a look through my books and sketch books (or invent something for you!)

What level of craft are you looking at? What can you do? Hand stitching, machine sewing etc - it might give us all a bit more of an idea!

cant knit but can sew and pretty much do everything else (to toot my own horn )

going to buy a treat jar today and some glass paint and decorate that with pictures from her favoirite author who drew loads of cat pictures.

made some mice and other felt toys too.

any ideas are welcome!

Where would you get a wand? Like a child's wand from a halloween costume or something? I do have a boa!! I would like to try this..

i made one earlier today. i used the base from a childs plastic arrow from a bow and arrow set i got in pundlad. try $store for something similar.

Thanks..Will look shortly as there is one down the street..Should buy two with how rough my boys play!

Just read my August issue of BBC Gardener's World and they have 2 really easy cat mobiles to make!!
