So I still had the second fish left over, so I gave it to Gisli who has enjoyed playing with it on the table... However I gave it him in the afternoon, and he was still banging it around at bedtime, waking everyone up! I had to take the toy off him - he´s just too playful! He can have it back in the morning to carry on playing with it :rolleyes:

Being all nice to the fishy;

¨playing¨ with the fishy;
(note the moment he is thinking ¨Oh human, you are here!¨ :lol: )

So cute! At the end he's "it always feels like, someone is watching me!" That's how Aoife plays with her bells, beats them up and squeaks the entire time! I might get her that toy and see how she likes it. It's not heavy?

It has a good weight to it, so it´s not light but it´s not heavy either. The plastic part with the fish is very thick (Acrylic?) so it´s quite noisy banging on the cage - I think I´ll put it in the middle away from the sides today :)

Weighs 30.4g if that helps.

@Zara when you posted the fish toy I knew it looked familiar. I found mine in Gigi's toy box and put it in her cage more than a month ago. She managed to avoid on the regular. Today I heard a huge banging sound and sure enough Gigi was playing with her fish. She has continued off and on all day. Yeah, it's loud.

So cute :) :loveshower:

Yes it is loud if hung too close to the side! Gotta hang it towards the centre! :lol:

Gísli beat the daylight out of his poor little fish and then chewed the plastic thread. I have all the parts but I need to fix it. I was hoping to get a thin SS chain for it, as I feel that would last the longest. I could tie it with leather but Gísli is quite mechanichal and will open the knots :rolleyes:

You should show her the Reactions thread :lol:

I finally fixed Gislis fish. I actually had a piece of chain in my toy parts box. I was sorting through yesterday and was embarrassed by all the stuff I have in there. I make toys with new beads, then buy more beads, but I save all the beads from broken toys in the "reuse box" and never reuse them :shy:
Anyway, the chain was too wide to fit the disc on but I got all the beads on and added some little beads and a Teddy charm...

Gísli seems pretty happy to have his fish back :rolleyes:

Oh we have a couple of this one! The girls love it, but the boys find it terrifying!
