Abstract

A pet toy is constructed of a resilient material that stretches and returns to its original shape when at rest. The toy further has a spiral, coiled, or wound shape that channels or directs stretch in a particular direction. The toy has stretch or shape-changing ability and can change in length by one and one-half times or more. In some instances an object can be used with the toy and be retained within an interior space of the toy.
