Make your own: Plush zombie hand cat toy

Celebrate Halloween, and give your cat something new and exciting to play with this Spooky Season with this frightfully fun plush zombie hand kicking toy! Find out how to make one of your own below.

What you’ll need: 

  • Red Craft Felt 
  • Craft Felt in the hand colour of your choice 
  • Sewing Needle and Thread (or a sewing machine) 
  • Sewing Pins 
  • Stuffing Material 
  • Paper 
  • Pencil 
  • Scissors 

What to do: 

  1. On a sheet of paper, roughly trace around your hand with your fingers spread wide so you can make the fingers nice and thick.
  2. Cut out the hand you just drew on your paper to make a hand template.
  3. Place and pin the paper template onto the craft felt in your chosen hand colour, then cut out two felt hands.
  4. Using your hand template for size reference, cut out red felt for the bleeding parts of your hand.
  5. Sew your red pieces of felt to the felt hands using red thread (any colour thread is okay, but red thread will not be as obvious).
  6. Pin your two hand shaped pieces of felt to each other, making sure that the bloody sides are facing outwards.
  7. Sew around the fingers and thumb of your hand only.
  8. Use your stuffing material to fill out the fingers and thumb of your plush hand whilst they are still easy to reach. Use the end of your pencil to help push the stuffing material all the way in.
  9. Sew around the sides of your plush hand but leave an open space at the bottom of the wrist for stuffing.
  10. Use the rest of your stuffing material to fill out the rest of your plush hand.
  11. Sew closed the open space you left on your plush hand to keep the stuffing inside.
  12. Trim any loose or extra pieces of thread and felt. Your plush zombie hand toy is now complete!
