Toys
Toys provide valuable bonding time for you and your cats, they help prevent destructive boredom and they're a great way to keep your cat living a healthy lifestyle and moving their body. If your cat is an indoor cat, then providing environmental enrichment through toys is essential. Consider all the ways to play with your cat when choosing the right toys and remember to rotate toys regularly so that your cat doesn't get bored.
Interactive Play
Interactive play allows cats to use their natural hunting skills. Interactive cat toys and cat puzzle toys reward cats by stimulating their brains and fighting boredom.
Cat Scratchers
Scratching is vital for cat health, it is normal and natural behaviour that cats need to do, so a cat scratcher is an essential item when caring for a cat. They’re also a lot of fun and a part of their play (and having a cat scratcher saves your furniture from wandering paws too).
Feather & Wand Toys
Feather cat toys and cat wand toys are great for kittens, it keeps their sharp claws away from your hands
Catnip
Catnip is a herb that stimulates cats' brains affecting their behaviour, most commonly making them euphoric or calm. Dried catnip can be stuffed into toys, packed into balls, or sprinkled onto cat scratchers to encourage toy use. Note that not all cats like catnip so test out a small amount if it’s your cat's first time having it.
