Felted Cat Toy - Easy, Free, No Knitting Required

Did you just get a couple of cute, adorable kittens and forget to buy them some cat toys?  Fret no more.  Gather together some scrap yarn and make your own cat toys in no time at all.  What I like about this toy is that it is easy to make and requires no knitting.  Plus, these steps and measurements are more of a guide.  Change as needed.  Note: This toy works for kittens and cats of all ages.

Materials needed:
- Scrap yarn that is 100% wool that will felt well.  Worsted or bulky weight
- A piece of cardboard or other item approximately 8" wide to wrap the yarn around.  I used a cereal box but a DVD case, book or other item would also work.
