Is your cat yowling its tonsils out from pure boredom? If, in cereal-box jargon, you can insert slot A into slot B, grab a piece of kraft cardboard-used packing boxes work great-and follow brandiggity's instructions on how to cut and assemble a cardboard mouse, ball, and jumping jack to generate pure feline bliss.

And once you're a pro, the Instructables user says, you can let your imagination run loose:

Once you have gained a basic understanding of the toy's construction, create new shapes by sketching them on a piece of scrap paper, or even directly on the cardboard using a nontoxic pen or pencil.
