Mission: Make a Cat’s Day With This DIY Cat Toy
Do you know how to make a DIY cat toy? Well, you’re about to! 😸
Cats need a lot of mental stimulation to stay happy, so toys are an absolute must. Follow this guide to make a toy for a cat who lives with you, a friend, or at your local animal shelter:
items needed
- Scissors
- Cotton fabric
- Colorful yarn (plz choose vegan yarn, NOT wool yarn)
- A measuring cup
- Organic dried catnip
directions
1. Cut a square of fabric at least the size of your hand (cut it bigger for a larger toy).
2. Place 1/4 cup of dried catnip in the center of the square.

3. Bring the edges of the square together to form a pouch.

4. Cut a piece of yarn about twice as long as the fabric square.

5. Tie the yarn around the pouch tightly, and voilà!
