Had my two rescue cats for 2-1/2 weeks now [View all]

I've had my two rescue kitties for 2-1/2 weeks now.

The one that was cringing and scared has been slow to come around.

However, yesterday I received 21 cat toys that I bought on ebay.com for $10 or so.



The cringing kitty in the corner has come out of his shell. He is SO THRILLED with all of the toys!

His companion 4 month old kitty has been having fun with the toys too, esp. a mini tunnel that came with the toys.

As for my nine year old black cat, well she has been in on the action as well playing with some of the toys and mostly watching the other two go round and round!

The toy option really did the trick for my rescue cats. Who would have thought this would be the straw that broke the back of the camel so to speak.

Well worth $10 for 21 toys!

They seem to be doing very well overall. I had been overfeeding them when I first got them which was not a great idea so I've slowed down on the feeding en mass. It is not necessary but I'm sure they appreciated it but wow, the litter boxes sure didn't!

There were 21 toys in the envelope. It made no sense to put them all out at once.

Look who is protecting the other dozen or so of them for me! Missy!
