ABSTRACT:
A toy for pets to induce and maintain the interest of the pet without human participation. A movable support for suspending a toy character therefrom may be mounted in base member having a rounded bottom wall. In this manner when the toy character is batted by a pet both the support and base member move in random patterns acting to enhance the movement of the toy character. This enhanced random motion of the toy character is very effective in inducing and maintaining the interest of the engaged pet.
