How to Make a Fishing Pole Dog or Cat Toy

This pet toy is fun for both the pet and the pet owner. Try it with small dogs, cats, birds, and other pets; just remember to put this toy up when you are not playing with your pet to avoid them chewing it up or hurting themselves.
  • Age Guideline: 5 Years and Up
  • Time Required: 20 minutes (Does not include drying time)

The above age and time guidelines are estimates. This project can be modified to suit other ages and may take more or less time depending on your circumstances.

Materials Needed:

  • 1/2" Dowel (Any Length)
  • 1/4" to 1/2" Wide Ribbon
  • 2" Pom-poms
  • Craft or Hot Glue
  • Scissors

Instructions:
Cut a piece of ribbon twice as long as your dowel. Tie one of the end of the ribbon onto one end of the dowel. Secure it with a generous amount of glue. Tie a pom-pom, very tightly, to the other end of the ribbon.

Now, you can fish for your pet! Your pet will have fun chasing the pom-pom around the room. For a little variety you can tie an appropriate pet toy to the end of the ribbon.
