I bet if you put some cat nip inside the kitty would love them...

This is just the cutest idea! I hope I can remember it.

I saw a store once that sold odds and ends of ribbons. I should have nabbed them but wasn't in the market at the time...

Home Sew sells ribbon assortments. Approximately 25 yds for $2.95.

Here is the address for Home Sew. I've order many things from them, but especially their swim wear elastic. That elastic is resistant to bleach, so lasts a long time in neonatal baby sheets.

Home Sew Inc
P.O. Box 4099
Bethlehem, PA 18018-0090
USA

Or online at: www.homesew.com

I hope this is allowable. Just a very satisfied customer.

I just went to this site and found a lace and ribbon assortment bag for $4.00. Sounds like just what you would need.

True, no batting but plastic pet food bags work also, they just make a different sound.

I do not buy cereal but sure have pet food bags, want to make some for GGS who is almost 7 months.
Thank you for the extra hint of what to use inside the toy.
sewnbug and maviskw, I have not used the company in a long time but they sure do have neat things at good prices.
Thank you for the reminder.
