By watching your cat and identifying certain behaviours, you can better target your toy buying. For example, if your cat is scratching the furniture, a toy that relieves the urge to scratch would work well. Likewise, if a cat is displaying an urge to chase, a toy which includes an element of hunting is sure to go down well. They are the best cat toys on the market, at a great price, from cat games to organic catnip for cats. These fun shapes, with fun noises, that move in fun ways keep our larger cats moving and getting exercise and mental stimulation.

Finally, on a practical level, ensure the toys are robust, unlikely to fall apart under heavy play and free of small pieces that could come away and be swallowed. As vet Dr. Joanna Woodnutt says: “A common danger is swallowed string from wand toys – if you allow your cat to ‘catch’ the toy, be sure to remove it before they chew through the elastic.” Why does my cat not show interest in toys? Cat lovers share that when this toy is finished recharging, the light goes out. Some folks thought the light would go from red to green, but it just goes out. And it lasts a long time! As a bonus, the ball can be illuminated. This makes it more noticeable, encouraging cats to play day and night. Of course, this means you will need to power the toy in some way: in this case, it's batteries-only (and you don't get any in the box) but that at least makes the toy portable.

You'll find that the banana is made from heavy duty cotton twill, so it should be tough enough to withstand some pretty rough play, although a few testers have reported the toy being ripped open at the seams. As with any catnip toy, damage is possible if a cat gets a little too enthusiastic so it’s always best to supervise their playtime. One of the problems with giving a cat a ball to play with is that, with an ill-timed swipe, it's easily lost. By ensuring a ball is sent along a structured path, a cat can repeatedly enjoy all the thrill of a chase.

It's always worth having a ball of string handy for an impromptu play session with your kitty and it's among the DIY cat toys you can make at home. But this toy goes that little bit further. It provides all of the thrill of catching a piece of moving string but without any involvement on your part. Maine Coon cat toys need to be able to withstand their extra weight and strength. These are not dainty cats!

Boredom with toys can also set in so it's your job to ensure they are entertained without being overstimulated. “It’s important to swap toys around regularly to keep them interesting and very short games of one to two minutes are fine,” Warren-Cummings adds. “And older cats will love playing three or four times a day, while younger cats will be happy to play 10 times a day or more.” Why do cats put toys in water? You can swap around the toys in the box although only smaller ones would work. If you wanted to treat your feline pals, you could always swap the toys for some of the best cat treats, which will be a delicious incentive. And a great toy should provide hours of running, chasing, snatching, hiding, pouncing, jumping, and "hunting" for your larger cat. The toy works by attaching the string to a moving elastic conveyor belt but there's no assembly required and the string is sewn for you. There are also two speeds which not only provides an additional challenge but ensures the toy doesn't become too predictable. Just be sure to keep an eye on cats while they play with the toy.Frustration-related aggression or redirected play aggression can occur when cats are under-stimulated and need an outlet. If an owner’s cat is regularly displaying ‘zoomies’, then it’s a good indicator that they might be under-stimulated and need more toy play in their life.”

Cats that don’t have toys to display their inbuilt prey/play behaviours may start directing these behaviours on to people (particularly if owners encourage their cats with fingers or toes) and over time this can develop to be a substantial problem,” says Daniel Warren-Cummings, Cats Protection’s Central Behaviour Officer. There are many reasons why a cat may not show an interest in toys and much depends on the type of feline you have. Indoor cats often react in different ways to outdoor cats, for example. “Indoor cats need more entertainment than outdoor cats who will often engage in hunting activity or will play with fallen leaves or grass blowing in the wind,” confirms Daniel Warren-Cummings, Cats Protection’s Central Behaviour Officer. Helpful to note: Some pet owners note the these balls as being quite durable. Others have said they were not so durable but that was ok, since they tend to get lost anyway and these are such a great price they are easy to replace.Every now and then, you may wander over to your cat's bowl and find a toy bobbing in the water. Sometimes, you may even find one in the toilet. But why? “The reason is unknown but there are a few theories,” says Daniel Warren-Cummings, Cats Protection’s Central Behaviour Officer. Using toys is a great way for a cat to use up some of their energy, keep fit and healthy and keep their brain alert and active,” affirms Daniel Warren-Cummings, Cats Protection’s Central Behaviour Officer. “It’s particularly important for kittens as it teaches them the skills needed for life and lessons about the world around them.”
