From the Daily Cat Tip

Up, up and away: A great toy for cats
by Kelly Modzelewski, Dog and Cat Writer

I was watching children play with a bubble machine the other day. Then, a dog came up and started chasing the bubbles around. I thought: "What great exercise!" and it dawned on me that it would work equally as well for cats. There are even bubble machines for pets! Or use a kid's bubble machine. And make sure to use non-toxic bubbles. You can also make your own solution with 2 cups non-toxic dishwashing liquid, 6 cups water, 3/4 cup white Karo syrup.
