If you are able to, untie the toy from the end of the string, and then thread the string through a couple of plastic drinking straws. This will help to prevent the kits from getting directly to the string, and in addition can prevent the string from accidently getting wound around a kit's neck.
I learned this tip by getting my Tiger Tamer toy in the mail - it is made with two straws covering the string at the bottom of the toy just above the mouse, for those very reasons, and it works well.
Let Urbantigers' poor furboy Mosi's unfortunate experience today be a lesson for all of us cat slaves! Don't leave your string toys out so they can hurt themselves by chewing up/swallowing or getting caught/tangled up in or choked by the things we buy for them to have fun with.
