Trixie Mouse in a Wire Ball Toy For Cats

Cat toys – they’re attractive, they’re fun, and well, they sometimes excite the hooman more than the cat. Every cat has a favorite set of toys, be it balls, feather toys, squeaky toys, interactive wands, etc. The best way to know your cat's favorite toys is to allow them to choose which they’d like to play with – cats that have a high prey drive prefer chasing, pouncing, and running, and enjoy balls, feather toys, cat trees, agility courses, and treasure hunts. Contrarily, cats enjoy focus over play, enjoy interactive toys, puzzles, scent work, and so on. It is always best to give your cat a mix of both types of toys, i.e. one that exercises the body and one that challenges the brain. Most teaser cat toys that are bright and/or emit sounds that mimic sounds of prey, are loved by curious kittens since their ears are very receptive to new sounds, especially high-pitched ones. As is mental and physical exercise, so is relaxation – mata tabi and catnip toys are increasingly popular for their benefit to a cat’s emotional well-being.
