Cats always seem to be cool and composed, but they can be just as neurotic as we are – some cats, like the ones in this list, are hoarders, and will collect piles of useless junk in their owners' homes!
Collecting food is a natural strategy, but scientists are still unsure of why cats hoard useless stuff like toys, bottle caps or milk rings. Some believe that they consider these toys to be like prey, while others believe that they gather these items the way they'd gather their own kittens.
Why do you think they do it? Let us know in the comments, and submit your own cat-hoard photos!

Bag Hoarder
AngieCates 10 years ago
Not good..... She can suffocate playing with these. I've seen it almost happen if someone hadn't caught it in action. Please make sure your animals can't get to plastic bags. They can also get the handle part wrapped around limbs and loose them.

Only problem is.... If they chew one In half and then swallow it, it will bind up her digestive tract and could die. No no toy. We spent 3,000.00 untieing of kitty's intestines. Same goes with yarn or ribbon.

I love the photos, so funny... My cat is now over the Rainbow Bridge but he used to love to pinch the toothpaste tubes, when I found them they had little holes in them from his teeth, he must have loved the taste... lol.
SallyVogel 10 years ago
I think a lot of that stuff was just put out for the cat to play with and it got under the furniture where the cat couldn't get it.
