Squirrel tails!!
My partner does a bit of grey squirrel control in our area and took home (perhaps a bit foolishly) a couple of fresh squirrel tails for Sylvester to play with. Sounds a bit yucky, I know but Sylvester has gone crazy for them, tossing them in the air and kicking them with his back legs. We have since confiscated them because we started to think that perhaps these tails could have mites or fleas!!! We've put them in the garage thinking that once they dry out they might be ok..... not sure whether we should give them back to sylvie or not- what do folks reckon? He just doesn't seem to be interested in 'dangly sheep' or anything that isn't realistic or real!! He's constantly sneaking into the garage to grab them!!!!

Wow, I bet he goes mad for a squirrel tail. We have loads of grey squirrels in our area and occasionally if one gets into the garden, past the cat-proofing, itcauses a bit of a rumpus, I can tell you! If the lads are outside, they fly up the trees in the blink of an eye, and if they're indoors they leap from windowsill to windowsill, knocking over anything in their path....

Oops... am I glad we don't have squirrels where we live! But there are loads of rabbits. Never seen one in our garden though, but perhaps that's because there are so many neighbourhood cats prowling about. Almost everyone here lets their cats roam free, except for us and the lady who lives opposite - she also catproofed her garden when she got an MC.

Many Squirrels here and rabbits but the squirrels are all red ones.. and so beautiful to look at... think this is one of the few places they Greys have not got to yet so there are many to look at... the cats watch them through the run and now and again they are cheeky and run up the run and tease them..
Cat play with almost anything.
I bought some windup rats huge things they are with what looks like real tails.. the other day only 50c reduced from €1,50... they do not work as in you can wind them up and they sit there, but the cats love them...
