I have one feline that will eat anything that doesn't or cannot eat him first. He is the biggest kid and tests everything with his mouth. I am affraid if I use gravel or sand, it will end up in his mouth if some should happen to spill anywhere. I figure the rice will just make its way through his digestive system.

He keeps me on my toes looking for my sewing things that makes it to the floor. Sometimes he paws up to my sewing table and knocks things off just so I can chase him. He has such personality. You can see the way he chose to lie in the chair. Oh well.

Crafty,
I was at the Petco today buying cat food and saw that they carry 7lb bags of crushed walnut shells for $9.99. They are kept in the bird bedding aisle.

Go to the top of this thread and read the rules. I think you can as long as you have it done by the 15th and ready to mail.

Here's a new idea.
I used a 3 oz plastic cup & scraps.
I wish they made straight pins that look like chocolate sprinkles.

You can make your own. Look for a brown fingernail polish and use it on some of the glass head pins.
