Hi, the only other suggestion I have is to restrict the area the cats can have their balls in. This way you won't be hunting them all over the house, you will have a good idea where it might be. Otherwise the tags sound like a good idea to me if they can fit in the balls and not come out while the cats are playing.

They have lots of active toys and I play with them regularly. But I like the feeder balls because it makes them hunt for their food, which makes them more satisfied because it plays more to their natural instinct. Plus at this point they love the feeder balls 😀 > On Oct 20, 2023, at 8:27 PM, Donna Casteen <[email protected]> wrote: > > Instead of using the feeder balls for exercise, have you considered using a > remote control feeder mouse?
