Bella has lots of dog toys (plush with sound machines or squeakers inside, dental Nylabones-her fave!, rope toys, etc...), but she has a plush puppy and a puppy that has a sound machine (it barks when you squeeze it) that are both for children. And she has stolen several toys from my cats--mice and a an Audobon bird that used to be on the end of a wand until my cat snatched it off (and had already chewed all the feathers off too, so basically it's just a tiny plush bird). She does love her cat toys!! FYI: she originally stole one of my cats favorite kind of mice--sort of a colored faux leathery one (they're Hartz and come in a pack of 12 or so with 4 different colors from WalMart)--and when she finally chewed it enough, it broke open and had a white powdery stuff inside it. Messy! But, the mice that have a rattle inside have a hard plastic under the outer material, etc... layer (I think I got those at PetsMart, but any of them that rattle are like that) = no mess! Plus, I don't know what the white stuff is, so I didn't want her to ingest any of it. Also, we were visiting my parents who have cats, and she found their round track with a ball that goes around the track (it has a scratcher in the center) and went nuts! The ball lights up with motion, and she chased it round and round. We got her one and save it for special occasions because she chases it round and round and growls and whines at it frantically--we don't want it to totally make her crazy!! But she LOVES it! Here's an example of what I'm talking about: Bergan TurboScratcher Cat Toy and Refill Scratcher - Toys - Cat - PetSmart
(You can find them with a ball that lights up, though, but I don't know if that would really matter to her. And we took out the scratcher so we wouldn't have cardboard everywhere.)
