So, I was making a couple preeners for Loki after his surgery. I had a brilliant idea just literally smack me in the head (no, nothing was thrown at me).... Was had purchased a bunch of wiffle balls and had been playing with different options. Decided to feed fleece strips thru for a preener type toy.

Here are the first three I came up with tonight....

Two going to the shelter for shelter bird critique! Always a crowd that loves it or hates it :)

And this is one I am sending to Michelle for Loki and Tyrion to see how they do for a test 'drive'!!



After making them slightly different, I am leaning towards the longer one that has two pieces thru each hole so the ball is mostly covered.

Any thoughts??

I really like #2 & #4...can't wait to hear how the shelter birds like them! That is another really good idea that I am going to steal, btw:)

I vote for the first one. Great idea! I'm going to steal it too. Percy looooves nibbling on my clothing (with often painful nippy results!) so I'm looking for toy ideas to give him his required does of fabric nibbling before I get home ;)
