Traci- yes the little tent...she loved it for a long time...now more into the boxes unless I throw a mousy thing into the tent. But it is cute...and a friend takes her cat to the vet in the tent.

So could someone show me pics of the tent and the tube? :wink: I have some deadlines to meet this summer and little time to spend entertaining kitty katz.. my boys are sooo good, but I worry about them getting fat.

Tina, I love the pics of Willow!

E's - the tent - now that she has gained a little it is a bit small for her...good for a smaller cat, say up to 10 lbs.

One of my favorite "toss the item" was on my sister's dog. She had a giant sized teddybear that her dorkie yorkie took over as his lover. He humped that thing left and right and if he saw you touching it he'd growl at you. Finally one day, they took little yorkie for a walk, while someone else took his paramour out for a walk (to da dumpster). He never showed any signs of missing the misstress. He never even found a replacement, well that anyone knew of!
Loved the pics of Willow and Gizmo!
Kitty kisses,
Debbie

Debbie--- :lol: :lol: LOL :lol:

E's - there is also a nylon cube but I wouldn't recommend that as a woman reviewed it on Amazon and said it collapsed on her cat (Traci called that one!) ...but the tent has been ok and even has stability by the fact that you zip up the top and the triangular shape becomes sound.

Made Angel a toy today. Got baby socks at the $1 store and filled with catnip and tied up open end...she likes it!

I could have swore I posted pics earlier, but I guess not!

I don't have any photos of Willow in her tube, but here are some I found online of the crinkle tube that is exactly like hers....except the only color they had when I bought hers was maroon and tan. I like these colors here much better, especially the blue (like Willow really cares? :roll: )

Yes! That's exactly what we need... do you recall where online? And of course we will have to have the blue! My guys would be offended with the pink :wink:

I am back and forth between this forum, instant messaging with DD, having my 12 year old grandson visiting, and watching "Jeopardy!" ... missed this part of the post. So anyhow, I dunno... Maybe I should just 'bite the bullet' and invest in a tower...

Oh - I see you said"cube" not "tube" --- but come to think of it, Pinto is sooo big and active, I can just picture him getting himself trapped in the tube too.... :roll:

I got mine at Target, but they didn't have the pink or blue. I haven't seen them online anywhere but I haven't looked either. The tag says www.worldwise.com and I looked it up and it's SmartyKat brand. It's called the CrackleChute tunnel toy:

http://www.worldwise.com/cracklechute.html


That's the exact color I have for Willow...they have a product locater that tells you what stores sell their brands....or just do an Google search for SmartyKat CrackleChute. Looks like Walmart sells it online for 7.88...I don't like Walmart but that is probably the best deal. I think that is close to what I paid. I saw it at another site for $15.
