Why your cat needs entertainment

Although your cat may often be seen snuggled up in its bed taking a nap, it's a bit of a myth that our feline friends are lethargic creatures. In fact cats are inquisitive creatures which love to play, sometimes on their own and sometimes with the aid of toys. If you would like to buy your playmate some items to play with, here are a few points to consider:

Why it's important for a cat to have appropriate toys and entertainment?

Cats require mental stimulation and exercise just like us and cat toys can really help with this, particularly for indoor cats who may otherwise become bored easily.

Having cat specific toys which your pet loves to play with can stop them entertaining themselves with items in the home they shouldn't be playing with - items which they may damage or could

hurt them.

 

 

There are also significant health benefits to keeping your pet active. Being overweight can be as dangerous for cats as it is for humans, so it's important to encourage them to exercise through play - something which can also help you bond with your pet. Cat dental toys can also assist in keeping your cat's teeth in good working order.

What kind of toys are appropriate?

There are a huge range of specialist cat toys out there which are designed to appeal to cat's natural instincts to pounce, hunt, chase and scratch. To decide what type of toys are most appropriate for your furry friend, spend some time engaging them in play to find out which activities they most enjoy. Cats who like to chase might prefer toys such as moving mice or fishing rod type toys, or even lightweight balls which they can paw easily. For kitties who like to get their claws out you may want to invest in a scratching pole or tree which will allow them to indulge their urges without damaging your soft furnishings. Another type of toy you may like to consider are soft toys. Although cats prefer to play with items which are smaller than themselves cuddly toys are an especially good choice for kittens who can find their presence calming when adjusting to a new home.

Whichever fun items you select to take home for your pet, be sure to check them regularly for wear and tear. Although cat toys are designed with them in mind it can be possible for components to come loose so be aware of any small bells or sequins which could break off. Finally, don't be disheartened if your cat loses interest in a toy; just like children it is possible for cats to grow out of certain items, or to crave new excitement so to stop toys getting stale make sure you invest in a few products which you can rotate.
