The J.M. Smucker Company sent me free product samples and asked me to blog about it and we created this fun DIY Cat Toy.

  1. My cats would love this toy, and I think we have all the supplies on hand. I’ll be helping my 7 year old make a fun ribbon toy for her cat tomorrow. Thanks for the great idea.

  2. My orange fluff ball would love that toy and the treats. He is a treat fiend!
