What’s more fun than playing with your favorite feline? Here’s how to make a feather wand your cat will absolutely adore.
Our friends at Friskies created the Friskies Do-It-Yourself Toy Maker Series of videos to help kitties everywhere live more fun, fulfilling lives. Today, we’ll show you their creative take on steps to make a fun feather wand toy. Take a look:
What You’ll Need
2 colors of yarn
1 wooden dowel
Feathers
1 needle and thread
1 wooden bead
A little bit of blue string
1 thin leather strap
1 pair of scissors
1 drill
What to Do
Using your thumb to hold it in place, wrap your first spool of yarn around your hand.
Cut the end. And add the other color!
Next, carefully take the yard off your hand and, using your blue string, tie them up in the middle.
Cut the loops. You got yourself a yarn ball!
Take your leather strap and sew it to the yarn ball.
Using another shorter leather strap, sew the feathers to the end.
Slide the wooden bead over the base of the feathers.
Tie the shorter leather strap to the longer one.
Remember the drill? Time to use it!
Put the strap through the hole and tie off the end.
That’s it! You’ve got a brand new feather wand to play with together. For more fun and helpful cat tips, visit Catfoodsite.com
