I agree with you there! Some of those balls that Harley plays with HURT when you step on them - or trip on them


You know, I can never find Harley's 1,000 balls that he has rolling around here during then day, but at night, I seem to find them all!

Devin has a stuffed dog that I named Bingo. Sometimes I'll ask him wheres Bingo? And next thing you know he's off round the apartment, coming back with Bingo craddled in his mouth. He used to drag it around the apartment when he changed sleeping areas but now it's normally on the bean bag since it's Devin's bean bag. He also has a favourite mouse, which of course is broken & he still wants to play with it. His spongy balls are just called by thier colour; I sometimes ask him wheres the ball and off he goes, searching for a ball since they're scattered everywhere.

Thais thread is great!


Tibby has Squeaker Mouse and Molly has Squeaker Mouse 2!! Willow is patiently awaiting Squeaker Mouse 3!


Willow also has a Zippy (Rainbow) hand puppet that is his distraction toy!! There are also numerous random names for the experimental toys that I've tried out on them!!
One went so wrong, I tried to turn it inot a prawn, but looks nothing like that!


We also have 'where's your mouse?!' and others of that ilk!!

We've only ever named one toy. The rest just get referred to as toys. George was (and is) much to particular and loyal to this one purple horse, however, so we started referring to it as "wooby", and it's been that ever since.

Well, we haven't named the puffy balls or anything like that, but the stuffed animals are named. We're kinda unoriginal, though. Forest has a catnip-filled stuffed frog that's named "Pot Frog" and that all three cats love. So, when we expanded the collection, the new ones became "Pot Dog", "Pot Cow" and "Pot Mouse". They also have a stuffed mouse named Fred and a stuffed alien-looking thing named Skeezix. (I have no idea why.)

COme to think of it, Leo did have this one toy, Mr. Mousey, that he just LOVED. I think it was like a security blanket. He played with it, slept with it, carried it around with him. Sadly, all that is left of Mr. Mousey is part of his empty sheepskin shell. The nose was first to go, then the tail, then all the stuffin's.

I picked it up years ago, one of those impulse buys at a 7-11 for $5 LOL

He's supposed to be disposable as far as batteries go, but Spaz always loved him so much that I perform surgery on him every few years to replace the batteries.

Gibby has "feather" and paige, when she's got a toy in her mouth it's her baby (valerian twists oddly enough...) and also gibby has toys called "don't you put that in the toilet!"

Moly doens't do toys, except she has Mousies

My first response was "What nut names a cat toy", but then I remembered that I am one of those nuts!! Mr. Fuzzikins and Mr. Pinky are toys that came with the cat tree when I bought it. Technically, my 16 year old niece named the toys, but I do refer to them by the names she gave to them. Mr. Fuzzikins used to have hands and feet until Izzie decided he no longer needed them!!

Some of Sierra and Serenity's favorite toys have names that I say when we begin to play. For Sierra.. "Want to play with Stringy?" or, for Serenity, skilled in the art of chasing it and bringing it back over and over.."Where's Furball?" or "Bring me Feather!"
