We are still looking for a couple of my boy's toys it's like he sends them into the void.

We moved some stuff around fully thinking we’d finally find the lost balls to the three terrace ball toy. Nope. I’ve seen one of the two drop a toy in his litter box and definitely in the water bowl. Have bought a second ball toy to use as a replacement.

It's scary because Jax really loves his Bucky Beaver toy. It's the only toy he plays with. At least twice a day he start growling and picks it up in his teeth and struts around with it, showing it off.

I fear for the day when it becomes lost forever.

I'm a cat owner of a year now. Didn't know this was a thing until now. Her favorite toy disappeared a couple months ago and then i realized many other toys were missing. They are nowhere.

Same place the missing socks end up.

There’s a room in our house that we keep closed overnight. Every morning I have to go in there and rescue the 5+ toys that my cats push under the door because they “lose” them on purpose…

Yes, I am sure that my daughter’s void was deliberately knocking her toys under the fridge so that we would get them out for her. I ended up putting a small piece on wood across in front of both of the feet. That way they could only go under it by an inch.

One of our cats plays chicken with his toys and the oven, he throws them towards it and tries to catch them right before they go under. So most of his toys end up under there eventually lol

I swear, they’re just trying to make us work for it. It's a game to them.
