Oh, they had Maybe on the "good stuff", you can see it in her eyes! :D Poor girl, the issue will come when she's feeling better but still can't move much. I know you don't need any extra costs in your life right now, but you might find it worth your while to invest in one of those wire collapsable dog crates () if you don't already have something similar. Because they're enclosed on all sides the cat can't decide to try to jump out or climb while she's healing, and they're well ventilated, light, conveniently fold flat for storage, and easy to clean -- you can just put the whole thing in the bath and disinfect it. I have two for the boy, and vastly prefer them to the hard bodied plastic varieties. One can get them very cheaply used here, too.

I'm really not surprised by the dangerous nature of the cat toys, frankly. At least two thirds of what is marketed as dog toys is potentially lethal as well, and should only be given where appropriate, and then supervised, too. Even then it's problematic, because it only takes a second for an animal to get into trouble -- but what's the alternative? Raising them with no toys whatsoever? Then you're virtually guaranteed that they'll *find* something completely unsuitable to play with. :D These are the the conundrums of living with a companion animal...
