Buy them. They will be much better quality and will be safe for you bird, but if you really want to make your own toys for your bird I would suggest you visit makeyourownbirdtoys site
well there are many ways the way i did for my cat was a sock full of cat nip and i sewed the top shut. he played with it for HOURS! he loved it!! and he shat on my ceiling fan and my sheets..
Another way is to tie a string to something and let it hang. The cat will love it and it will jump and paw at it. Cats like things that are small and can be hit around. You may want to stay away from rubber because cats eat rubber toys and it makes them sick.
Use your imagination! But make sure it (the toy, not your imagination) is un-swallowable and safe. check out PetSmart and smear it with Catnip!
Put string on a pencil and tie it
If you have a new kitten that is standoffish, there are many things you can do to get the kitten to be comfortable. It is important to give the kitten a lot of attention, and play with them often. Giving them plenty of toys and objects to play with, will help the kitten become comfortable.
Try introducing new toys!
You can try some squeaky toys for a recently tamed feral kitten. You can also try a scratching post to help the kitty.
Some examples of homemade kitten toys are making prey for the kittens with old socks filled with fabric or stuffing. Paper that has been scrunched up and hung from a string. Fill a bag with bells and close it up and give it to the kitten.
You could try introducing them to new toys or friends. If that doesn't work, you could also contact a vet because they could have a disease.
If your kitten meows strangely, that probably meant it feels sick. Or, it might mean that it wants something. food? water? toys? otherwise it is hurt.
It depends of your kitten but most like to chase after string. Take a piece of string and swing it back and forth in front of your kitten. You can even attach a ball made out of paper onto one end so the kitten can "catch" something. Make sure it is not to high and that you are not swinging it too fast. Your cats eyes should move back and forth after a little while your cat will pounce and start playing with you. "Wand" toys are also very effective in getting kittens to play.
If it is a kitten you should buy some toys. Also some food.
Don't let the kitten have access to a room with a door that leads to the outside. Make sure all the doors that lead to the outside are locked. Put her in a room where she has food, water, a bed, a litter tray and some toys so she won't be able to want to go outside.
Unless the kitten has some disease then no
There are some diseases that a sick kitten can pass on to make a child sick.
When he starts chewing on things and starts like munching on his toys and things. :)
