Treat-dispensing Origami Cat Toy

This easy-to-make toy is based on the same principle as many other treat-dispensing toys. The large outer ball houses a smaller ball that holds the treat. With enough interaction, the treat will fall out, or your cat will tear the toy to shreds and access the treat. Either way, it's fun for you and your cat!

Step 1 Materials

You will need:

• Two squares of paper, roughly in a 2:3 ratio to each other
• Scissors
• A cat treat

If you aren't familiar with how to make a square from a rectangular piece of paper, here are two different methods. Use a paper that will take a crease well (not construction paper!) and is at least as heavy as your average printer paper. You might want to make the outer ball out of a heavier paper, such as an old magazine cover.

This is great! I'll have to give it a try. I also have a furry black cat named coco, and she needs more toys.
