Toys for Pets Program: Because Every Cat Needs Cat Toys

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.

What are Catty Stacks? Simply the best box your cat will ever play in!

Catty Stacks are a truly unique way to give your cat a place to hangout and hide in your house. Unlike other cat furniture, Catty Stacks are completely customizable and expandable!

You choose your color combinations, or get all one color, and set them up however you wish. Don’t like the layout or it does quiet fit that space? Simply rearrange the Catty Stacks boxes to fit your needs. Make it tall or make it long. It is all up to you.

Add a blanket or towel inside one of the cubes and your kitty has an instant cuddle hideout. Your cat will have fun exploring or just plan napping on this “contemporary, eco-friendly, economical, and configurable alternative to traditional, expensive, bulky, and unsightly cat furniture”.

Catty Stacks are available in five colors to match any decor. They are only $14.99 per box. So why not pick up 3 or 4 today and build a little kitty fort for your best friend?

What others are saying about Catty Stacks:

  • BorisKitty.com says, “Dey r Pawsum” (You might recognize him from the Catty Stacks Boris’ Bundle on our site.)
  • Whataslacker.com says, “What I liked about the Catty Stacks is the fact that you can build and rebuild them in any configuration that you want, kind of like giant kitty LEGO bricks.”

For years we have been getting donations from our wonderful customers to send out toys and treats to shelters and rescues across the country.

We just wanted to keep you informed where your donations are going so we will start posting the recipients here on our blog. Please consider donating by simply adding a treat or toy donation item in your shopping cart before to check out and THANK YOU for your support.

Here are the CatToys.com Recipients for November/December:

We helped Boris Kitty raise funds to help two local cats that were shot with a pellet gun by an unknown assailant.  Boris was able to raise $1200. The funds were given to the owner of Peanut to help reduce the financial burden of the vet bills from the incident. While Kritter Kondos, treats and toys were given to Kiki and Peanut to keep the happy and safe.

Thanks to our great customers we were able to donate $125 in cash to Boris Kitty’s drive.

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!

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.
