She's SO cute!!!! We have those feather sticks here and we also have some that have a string on them that has feathers on the string on a stick. LOL My only problem is they don't sell replacement feathers. Only a whole new stick most of the time. Some brands you can buy just the feathers.
Like I just told emmaduck below: I bought one of these sticks for my Henry kitty, but with short leather strips at the end instead of feathers. It lasts much longer that the feathered ones - at least nine months now. And Henry loves chewing on the leather straps.
I've never seen any with leather straps!! I bet mine would love that just as much as the feathers. I had one with a string that had feathers but they chewed through the string so I had to throw it away, and found a different one that had fabric on it instead of string and at the end of the fabric there were feathers.
We found the one with the leather straps at a cat show. There were lots of booths from pet supply stores, and they had many different toys there. I thought about buying a stick with feathers first, but Henry plays quite roughly, and he'd have chewed them off within a day. The leather straps also helped him when his new teeth came through - he chewed around on them a lot then.
Oh, she's gorgeous! I've never seen a colouring like hers - snow-white with a reddish hue. Her little white paws are KILLING me with cute. And the pink nose! I'd be all over her, all the time (and annoy the poor kitty to death).
We have a similar plaything for Henry, but with short colourful leather straps at the end instead of feathers. More durable :) He loves it, and my fingers are out of the way...
Thank you! Yeah I've never seen colouring like hers either. The flash probably doesn't help when showing her colours, but in some places she has reddy-brown fur under the white (especially on her tail), and she has a couple of brown patches on the back of her back paws - which make her look like they're constantly dirty, lol!!
If she got used to you (she's scared of everyone), then she'd love all the attention! She bugs me ALL the time for attention when she's in the mood - the whole meow, poke, meow, poke thing gets a little wearing at times! She usually bugs me when I'm eating, and can't pet her properly!
Henry's toy sounds really cool - I'm sure Spooks would love something like that so I'll have to look out for one. Yeah fingers being out of the way is definitely a good thing - I was tickling Spooks' tummy earlier and have a few scratches and teeth marks from her playing with my hand!
*hugs* I'll clone her and send you one, but they're very naughty! She's doing an Andrex puppy thing at the moment and dragging loo roll all over the bathroom when I'm not watching, and then "killing" it!
Wow, really?! Cool! No one else I know has even HEARD of Ben's Brother!! Kitties rock! I share some of your other interests too, and it's great to have another girl gamer about (and you reminded me that I need to join girl_gamers!). You don't happen to play Guild Wars do you?

Cat videos are the win! And static!cat pictures are just as good, even if you have to schneak up on them to do so.
Can you get Oz's Triangles for a mood theme? I use them. I loves me some triangles.
RATTY PICS NEXT YES

The triangles are cute - I'm not sure I want to sacrifice my cats just yet though, but I do like seeing them on your journal!
Okay, I'll try to post some rat pictures soon! If they stay still long enough to pose for them anyway!!
