Kitten Teathing

My kitten is just about 3mths old now and he is chewing everything insight im guessing he is teething, is there anything i can do for him that could maybe calm him down a little bit?? is there such thing as a teathing ring for kittens (not sure never heard of any) .... welcome to any ideas!

When Bijou and Mika were teething we gave them big fat plastic straws to chew on. They really loved them and it was a cheap fix!

thanks i should look into that, just a little worried if he brakes off a small piece he could choke on it? Did they have any problems with that?

Mine both likes the rubber dumb bells (The smallest ones that pet stores sell for dogs)

Those straws seemed to be too tough for even them to break into pieces. The most that ever happened was that the straws got thoroughly chewed and I would just replace with new ones.

Abi won't play with anything plastic. she just sniffs it and walks away. I have tried rubbing feliway on it, cat food, even tuna juice, and nothing. So this leaves out a lot of things she could play with alone especially now at five months and teething. She prefers cotton and silk (weird?) and she prefers a smooth texture to wool- so I make some heavy cotton or silk string ties and knot them and those she will chase and chew. and she likes cotton covered scrunchies with small silk ribbons attached to them- all attached to a fishing pole. Right now she is in my lap wrestling with my apron strings. Please give me some other ideas for things she can play with besides me.. she hasn't yet figured out that when I am home I am not her play slave. PS: cat nip is a bore to her. All her favorite toys are little things I have made. Could this be a back to the earth...whole earth catalog cat ? I am showing my age with that reference.
