I got my cats one of those Jackson Galaxy aerial play toys for Christmas and they LOVE it. Love it so much, in fact, that they're well on their way to destroying the feathers. I try to keep them from getting too many "catches" while we play but Millie in particular is really fast and always gets it eventually.
One thing I've wondered about is just replacing the feathers as they fall off. My friends have a duck they keep as a pet that lives mostly indoors, and as such is clean and free of parasites. I could get feathers from them. Maybe my cats would like the smell.
Has anybody found a toy that simulates a bird that can stand up to a rough play session or two? Mine like to drag their prey around after they've caught it, show it off, and then hide/bury it in something, so a toy that could stand a little abuse would be good.
