My cat likes to drink from people cups. Sometimes I "accidentally" leave one on the table for him to discover.
My orange gremlin loves hair ties. So, when one is old and about to be thrown out, I'll accidentally drop one by him, and he goes nuts with it for a solid 15 minutes. It's akin to catnip to that little weirdo, he hunts them down in the house if a fresh one is put somewhere within reach.
Just FYI (and I'm sure you're careful/keeping watch) if your little orange gremlin accidentally swallows one & you live in the US, it is a COSTLY surgery to fix.
My Shiba Inu ate one a few years ago, it wrapped around her intestines, and it cost us $10K (and then another $5K when she ripped her stitches out a week later. Thank fuck for Care credit T.T)
Just a warning because I don't want anyone else to experience that kinda stress!
Yes, it's definitely supervised play only. He just loves to be a hunter and "catch" them.
