The CatToys.com company motto, Because Every Cat Needs Cat Toys, means a little bit more when you apply it to our Toys For Pets Program. The Toys For Pets Program allows customers like you to quickly and easily add a small donation whenever you place an order at CatToys.com. The proceeds from all toy donations are sent out to shelters and rescues across the country that are awaiting  your donations.

For some cats this will be their first experience with toys. Can you believe that? A life without cat toys? Sending toys to shelters gives them the opportunity to play with the cats and kittens which helps socialize them. Socializing the cats helps them get a forever home.

If you know a shelter or a rescue group that could benefit from our program please have them stop by our website for more information and an application.

Here are a few of the shelters and rescues we have recently sent donations.

Thanks to everyone who donated for making the lives of these animals a little brighter until they find their forever homes.

Sep 082011

Normally we think of mice as food, but today (and every day) you can donate food with just the click of your computer mouse. Just visit FreeKibble.com and FreeKibbleKat.com and answer their trivia questions to donate 10 pieces of kibble (total of 20 pieces by visiting both).

Don’t worry if you get the questions wrong. The animals will still get the kibble donated and you get to learn something new.

Today, Thursday September 8th) FreeKibble.com is donating all the food they raise to two shelters in areas that were recently hard hit by hurricane Irene.

These much deserving shelters are Central Vermont Humane Society (http://cvhumane.com/) and the Fayetteville, NC Animal Protection Society ((http://www.fapspet.org/). This food will help them continue to support those effected by Irene.

So please take a minute out of your day today to help them reach today’s goal of 10,000 meals or 1 million pieces of kibble. Simply go to FreeKibble.com and FreeKibbleKat.com to answer the questions on their home pages.

While they have a big goal set for themselves for today, please remember you can donate kibble EVERY day simply by playing their trivia game.

While Kritter Kondos, treats and toys were given to Kiki and Peanut to keep the happy and safe.

Cat Halloween Safety Tips

Cat Toys, Cool Cat News No Responses »
Oct 292010

Halloween can be a scary time, especially if your a cat. Here are a few helpful tips to keep your kitty safe this Halloween.

Keep your cats indoors this weekend. This can be a dangerous time of year outside for cats and dogs, but especially black cats as they are often the targets of pranksters or worse.

Watch those opening doors. Cats are sneaky by nature and will slip out an open door as soon as they spot an opportunity. Close them off in an unused room during parties or while trick-or-treaters are at the house. (Kritter Kondos work inside too.) Maybe leave the TV or radio on for them so they are not spooked by all the strange noises in their once docile domicile.

Make sure they are wearing their collars with proper ID on them and not some humiliating and restricting costume. For the most part cats don’t like to wear costumes so don’t force the issue and stress them out. No collar? Then make sure they are microchipped so they can be brought home safely if lost.

Candy can be dangerous so keep it out of your pet’s reach. Not only can chocolate be toxic to animals but the wrappers can cause serious injury if ingested.

Decorate with your pets in mind. Kitty-proof your house this Halloween. Don’t use an open flame they are too easy for a cat to knock over and start a fire. There are plenty of LED alternatives out there to keep your cat and your house safe. Fake spider webs and other decorations with dangling strings are often too much of a temptation for cats who can become entangled and injured.

Have a Happy & Safe Halloween!

Any one who has a cat and has brought a box into the house knows the simple truth…cats love boxes!

Even if they don’t quite fit in them, they’ll still get in them. But the best box of all is one that is delivered directly to the house and contains catnip!

 As you can see by the photos below, this kitty is one very satisfied customer!

A “Sticky” Situation — On September 22, 2009, a Pennsylvania SPCA Law Enforcement officer responded to a distressing call from a North Philadelphia woman who had discovered a cat wrapped in duct tape from head-to-toe and dumped in her backyard.

A Happy Ending For Sticky – On September 29, one week to the day that Sticky was rescued by the Pennsylvania SPCA, she went to her new home with a loving family.

Thanks to tips received from concerned citizens, the same Humane Law Enforcement officer who rescued Sticky was able to make an arrest in the case.

Let us introduce you to Boris (twitter user: @BorisKitty). Boris is a large and in charge kitty with a great purr-sonality that will win your heart. He was rescued at the very young age of 3 weeks. He was just a tiny little thing that could fit in the palm of your hand. Well all that hand feeding must have done him some good according to his profile he is a big ole moose of a cat now.

Boris just celebrated his fourth birthday with quite a bang. He is even running a big “birfaday” contest on his site right now. Photos from his party were even featured on PeoplePets.com. We hear he is working on perfecting his autograph right now.

See all the trouble this cat gets himself into over at his blog Big Bad Boy Boris it is lots of fun. He even has his own domain name now too — BorisKitty.com.
