Moxie loved the first cubes so much I had to buy more. We're up to four now - at only $3.88 at Wal-Mart, and considering how much entertainment they've provided, I think I can TOTALLY justify getting, oh, maybe another one or two? ;-) Here I've got them in a 2x2 configuration, but you can change the layout quite a bit. I just wish you could go UP with them - that they were strong enough to add levels of height.
Moxie loves to hide in side, play-attacking the other cats as they walk by. Or she'll be inside, reach out and snag a toy, and drag it back in with her. (She must think she's either a ground spider or hermit crab?!)
But her most favorite game? Sit inside and then I toss a toy on top. I've got some videos of this game, but haven't uploaded any to YouTube yet. Here's some stills...
The toy goes on top:
Within secs it rockets into the air as she smacks it from underneath, sometimes staying on the cube (which starts the smacking all over again), and sometimes flying off (which means she might reach out and snag it).
Rinse and repeat.
I guess she can just see it's shadow, or perhaps the indentation - whatever, it's a blast! If you've got cats, these toys are SO very worth it!

Hmm. Looks like loads of fun...for cat and me :) Wonder if they sell it in Canadian Walmarts.
Hm, that's a good quest. Look for them in the cat toys/catnip/flea treatment area, and DON'T look for anything that looks like a cube! LOL Look for the picture of the cube on the packaging, but they collapse down to like 6x6x1 inches maybe? They're in a shiny clear plastic package with a cardboard insert wrapper covering most of the cube material itself...and here they hang them on a spike on the display shelving wall. Good luck - and report back if you're able to find 'em!!
Given her fondness for boxes (like most cats, I think), I picked one up for Sylvie a month or so ago, and she seems to like it (it's her 'hidey hole!') Your post inspired me to pick up a couple more for her today. Spoiled cats ... ;)
