Cooleykatz Toys
is Livermore’s specialty
and educational toy store owned and operated by “proprietoys”
Pat and Nita Cooley. “As we raised our own children here in Livermore over the
past 25 years or so, we found ourselves wishing for a local toy store with
something different, and a little educational value as well. So we opened on July 1, 2006, and here we
are! …We hope you’ll come in soon
to play with a few toys, join us for one of our ‘Funshop’ activities, or
just take a look around.”

instruments, movement, and listening to a story or two.

Why is it called
Cooleykatz Toys?
Once there was a
cat... and “Cooleykat” was just his name!
Every cat has at least two names (and some have more). One is what people call it when they
want it to come and eat, or to come play with them and act like a cat.
Another might be a nickname, but they all have a secret name too, that
only the cat knows. Okay, his real
name was Gumball Cooleykat. His
name didn’t have anything to do with the fact that he was bright orange
with white stripes that made it look like he had just stuck his face in a
powdered sugar donut and sneezed!
It was just his name! So
when we decided to open up a toy store, the name just had to be
“Cooleykatz Toys!” It’s just our
name!
