ABSTRACT:
An animal attractant device is disclosed, comprising a ball shaped enclosure 10, a pressure sensitive switch assembly 9, and a dual sound synthesizer assembly 8. The device lures an animal into engaging or contacting the ball by intermittant, luring sounds from synthesizer 36, thereby initiating frequent use of the device. As an animal manipulates or rolls the device, an occasional contact of the pressure sensitive pad 16 of pressure sensitive switch assembly 9 by the animal or floor surface, initiates a brief sound from the second synthesizer 38 unlike the continuous, intermittant lure sound of synthesizer 36.
