razza45 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 well, i've come to the conclusion that roxy is bored with the average. she doesn't find interest in her toys anymore. i buy her them from the local pet store at around 20 bucks a pop and for her not to like them gets to be a little pricey. so now i'm thinking she needs some new, creative toys to stimulate those neurons. i'm at art school...so i have supplies galore at my finger tips and was wondering, besides the obvious (wood, leather, and that white chalky rawhide), what some objects/material would make for an interesting/ fun/ interactive toy. hopefully you guys can help me out with some obscure stuff...example: toilet paper rolls!! i'll add, also, as i rack my brain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest briansmum Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 i find the best one is a plastic bottle cap... particularly if it's from a bottle they see you drinking from. brian loves it, if i have a bottle of juice or water he flies over, i give him the top and he flies off again to chew it to bits. of if you ever have a pizza delivered and they come with the "box stabilizers" (look like a barbie sized table) he loves those too. i once poked holes in a bunch of plastic bottle lids thread it with an un used shoe lace and tied one of those pizza things to the bottom amd he was as happy as larry for aaaages!!

BMustee Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Mine loves bottle caps, but when I had him at work he found a shell on my desk and he loved it. He also loves playing with the entire 20oz bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 Yep, bottle caps & the whole bottle are always good. I also wash out used yogurt cups & margarine tubs. They make good toy holders as well as toys. When Klaus is going for a pen, if it has a cap I let him have the cap as I'm taking the pen away.

Guest briansmum Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 yeah, brian likes to have a bit of whatever i have LOL i was examining the new bird mister i bought and he was in there like a shot "beaking" it (if only he knew what it was for ) it had a detachable clip so you could hook it to the cage, well im never going to use that, so i gave it to him and off he flew to chew on it for ages!
