I completely flipped when I found these kitty treats on Etsy! They are totally adorable cat toys from Etsy seller Tee Tugs that are made by knotting together strips of recycled t-shirts. Brilliant! Not only are they colorful and cute, but they have dangly little arms and legs that kitty will find irresistible. And you can just throw them in the washing machine when they get gross!
There’s a selection of Kitty Bugs including Hydra, Knotty, and Shrimp. You can get a set of three (one of each) for $6 or a collection of 8 knots, also for just $6. Check out these sweeties enjoying their Tee Tugs!
And for interactive fun, don’t miss the Kitty Tugs featuring Frankie Firecracker, combining recycled denim with the t-shirts, and a cool mini tee, both on the end of a colorful braided t-shirt cord with a tasseled handle. $12 for Frankie Firecracker and $8 for the mini tee.

This line of toys looks great for cats and it has absolutely super potential for dogs! I love that the toys are washable.

My cats would love these ones…. My orange tabby is the baby at 25 pounds of muscle and he is only nine months… he would love them.

I just purchased two sets. One for me and one for a friend. When I went to her store they were all sold out. I contacted her and she just let me know she added more to the store. I guess the mention in Modern Cat really increased her sales volume.
Let you know how well they are received by my two fury guys.

These give the saying “…all tied up” a new meaning.

Mine arrived today and they love them. The little arms flop and entice the curious cat to attack. They slide under the bathroom door easily and cause lots of play running to the other side to bat it back under again. Very funny.
Happy cats!
