  Although cats often appear inactive, either lying there sleeping or moving around briefly before tiring, toys are very attractive to them. Playing with cats helps enhance the bond between owner and cat, uplifts the cat’s mood, and also provides some exercise. However, there are many types of cat toys, and different kinds attract cats in different ways, so owners must pay attention when choosing.

  Cats are always eager with cat toys, endlessly toying with them. It's hard to say if they are playing or attacking. They may pounce fiercely on their favorite toys like little tigers or sneak up quietly to paw at them. Owners need not worry; this is their nature. As natural hunters, although they are pets now, they exercise their innate hunting instincts through such behaviors. Therefore, it’s essential to provide suitable toys so the cat can treat them as prey in nature, practicing hunting behavior. You can give them some paper rolls, ping pong balls, or teaser sticks to enhance their play entertainment. But beware that these toys should be sturdy enough not to be torn apart and accidentally ingested by the cat.

  Moreover, cats maintain a strong curiosity about everything around them and tend to be "novelty-seeking" animals. If you buy only one toy to save trouble, it will definitely have the opposite effect. So owners should try to buy various different toys so cats can continuously feel freshness and not become bored.

  Finally, be sure not to treat yourself as a toy by using your fingers, feet, or clothing to tease them. This will encourage aggressive behavior. So when playing with your cat, always use safe and fun cat toys. (Source:PetsZone)
