Cut the jute or sisal rope to the length you’d like. A longer length will let you drag it across the floor for your kitty or tie it to their cat tree.
-
These types of ropes tend to fray, so tie each end of the rope. As it frays over time, it will become an enhancement to the toy!
-
Take a portion of the polyfill and stretch it a bit. Sprinkle a healthy teaspoon of catnip in the center. The amount of catnip you use will depend on the size of sock. (A little goes a long way!)
-
Fold the polyfill together to enclose the catnip and slide it into the sock. If needed, add additional polyfill to fill out the sock.
-
Cut a piece of twine and tie the ankle of the sock closed. Wrap and tie the ankle several times to ensure a tight closure.
-
Once all the socks are stuffed and sealed, tie each to the rope at varying distances apart using the twine.
-
Finally, snip the ends of the twine short to the rope. It’s now ready for your cat to sink their claws into!
