    We hope you enjoyed the video! :) Let me know if you spot the cute kitten at the end :p

    I don't have a cat. Have never had a cat. But I'm glad the YouTube algorithm brought me here. I will favorite this and send to all my cat owning friends. 🐈 ❤

    it is easy to stitch up busted seams. actually, you can make new stuffed toys out of the tops of socks (they seldom wear out). cut a few-inch section, stitch one side shut, stuff with the rest of the sock and some catnip, stitch the other side shut. They don't care about pretty, but bells and shoelaces can add interest.
  • We buy food puzzle but also hide snacks in toilet paper rolls. We fold them pretty tight and close. Our cat loves breaking and tearing up that cardboard and reach the snack.

    I just drag a cardboard ball around on a string and he plays with it. Costed me 90 cents
  • I definitely think I need to be more proactive for my two girls, they are so particular. Especially my calico, she will rarely initiate fetch, but otherwise not play much. Seems nominally interested in wands, but only as long as she can stay in one place. Our other cat on the other hand will try anything once it seems. They both love the laser pointer, but the second is so polite. If she sees any other cat playing with the pointer, she will sit and wait for them to be done until it's her turn. She's so precious
  • Looking forward to DIY toys video. Does anyone else have a cat who is very afraid of wand toys? All my previous cats were crazy for wand toys - it was great exercise for them. My current cat is very afraid of them. If I so much as reach for the handle, she runs away and hides. She will watch from afar if I just drag the "prey" on the ground, but she won't engage, and as soon as I lift the wand or prey, she runs. I've left different ones out in the living room, hoping she'd get used to them, but no luck. Makes me wonder if she was bullied by blue jays or a hawk during the time she was abandoned outdoors by a previous owner. My cat panics and escapes her leash harness - I've tried several varieties. She doesn't like her pet stroller. But she absolutely LOVES her forward-facing backpack walks!

    thank you, this is really helpful! i've spent so much money getting my cat new toys every few weeks😭
  • @googooboyy
    There are no bad cats, only bad cat parents
  • Really great video! Love the idea of categorizing and preparing a rotation, will def be trying
  • @rafaelatrajano7
    Every month I take a few cardboard boxes home. with different shapes, sizes and smells. But within minutes they were getting bored... I noticed that when changing these boxes, placing them in new places (especificly in corridor's house), they became extremely euphoric, playing until they destroyed the box 😂
  • I dont have a cat yet. (mine died) but i will keep that in mind for my next cat :)
  • they are smart. and when left alone toys are still . they re dead already
  • Boxes!!! They usually like to sit in them or ambush something or one. Nicely done!.
  • @FarOutFeline
    Great video! I already knew about toy rotation, but you presented it in such a way that it got me thinking about things a little differently. Your suggestion of categorizing toys is great. I have 5 savannah cats, and I've been looking to spice up their activity level. I've got a lot more ideas thanks to you :)
  • Both my cats are bored and depressed. They were indoor/outdoor, now indoor only (because FIV) and they get bored of toys in minutes, not weeks. The boy can't play more than 10 seconds before he gets bored. He cries a lot. Me too. We are safe and depressed at home. I can't find help on my situation as there is no favourite toy or hunting style. Toys are not real prey and my cats know the smell of real prey. I made their life so safe and sad.
