My cats always love to sit nearby when I’m crocheting and it made me think of crocheting a cat toy. Does anyone have any ideas/patterns? Would be great if it could incorporate catnip too!
I actually just made a simple ball yesterday (just learning basic amigurumi stuff recently), accidentally dropped it in the ground, and my cat immediately attacked it. Based on his frantic batting and chasing it around the room, I’d say a simple ball makes a great cat toy! 😅
Wonder if you could use something like a thin stocking/tight material (like you would to put those weighted pellets inside a stuffed object), fill it with catnip, and put it in the center of the ball along with the other stuffing? (I might have to try this out one day soon now that I think of it!!)
I’ve made a mouse and an octopus for mine so far and they love them both! I was able to put catnip and silvervine in them. The silvervine is for Little Bitty who doesn’t react to catnip. If you’re still looking, I’ll link the 2 patterns I’ve used and some others I plan to make at some point. I think any small plush with catnip/silvervine would work, tho, tbh
