Lucy loves her mouse, knitted from Brown Sheep Naturespun by Wendy
Geane: The mouse on the left is Carraig. (on a #3! OUCH!) and I did the one on the right in Furlana. A possum mouse!?! :)
Kim in Oregon: I stuffed the catnip with the cats in another room, but I didn't know dogs like catnip too!  The kitties didn't seem to mind that the dogs saw their mouse first.  Knitted with chartreuse virgin wool by "Swirl".  Got it cheap at an outlet store and the label looks very 1960's.
Willa: this is Pyewacket (the tabby) and Dinah (the black cat) enjoying their catnip mouse, knit from Lion Brand Fisherman's Wool, and stuffed with Cosmic Catnip.
P. Holm: Here is my gorgeous Tac with his catnip mouse.
Jessica: here are pictures of Liberty & Dumbledore playing with the mouse
Rebecca's kitty with mouse
Michelle: Here is Willow with her catnip mouse
Paula: Barkis (11 years old) is a Shepard/Collie mix and his greatest regret is that he was not a cat.... Pandora (6 years old) is the Siamese beauty, so has posed for the Vanna shot. she is still indignant that the Vet called her a senior cat this year, the nerve! I call her my Velcro kitty as she is always by my side.  Peridot (2½ years old)is my 'little' tough guy DSH, he was a stray who is adapting to domestic life, although after a year he still retains his desire to stay out late and commune with the wild things.
Adina: The grey cat is Remy, and you can see the degeneration as he really got into the mouse! The torti is Zoe, and you can see how much she loves the mouse - she mostly likes rubbing her face on it!
Andrea: In the first picture (with 2 red tabby cats), Retto has the mouse in his mouth, and Taz is about to jump on him.  Gale (all grey) was hiding, until I forcibly removed the mousie from the boys and gave it to her, so that's the 2nd pic. I made my mouse out of:  Philosopher's Wool 2-ply (swiped from my husband's sweater-in-progress) and Cosmic Catnip.
Brenda: Bambi in particular had a wonderful time playing with theirs this morning.   She spent quite a bit of time rolling on the floor and licking it.  Buttons wasn't sure what to think of it, but did check it out.  She mostly just enjoyed watching her sister play.  Both are fast asleep now!  I'm attaching a picture of each cat with the mouse.  The yarn I used was Patons Classic Wool Merino in Evergreen mix.
Marta: Left, Max discovered his mouse and Portia wanted to join him. Right, Portia likes her mouse!
Aimee: My cat Wombat loves her new mouse (Classic Elite Waterspun) and has been walking around the apartment with it, all goofed up on catnip.  And then there's Rebecca, my two year-old daughter who doesn't know the difference between cat toys and toddler toys.
