Cat games

Playing games with your cat is an enjoyable act, simple way to enrich his life, provide stimulation and strengthen the bond you share. Here are some games you can play: 


1. Chase the "Prey"

Use a special toy to simulate the movement of prey. By dragging a toy across the ground on a string, pausing periodically like an animal might, you're encouraging your little friend  to stalk and pounce like he would in the wild. This will increase his speed and agility and stimulate his hunting instincts. It's a good idea to keep the toy hidden until playtime in order to keep him interested in it.

2. Run and Fetch

It's surprising, but many cats love to play fetch - or at least, chase after and catch a ball that you throw an open area. Ball toys simulate the quick, unexpected movements of prey. Put a bell inside to get your kitties attention, and roll or toss the ball so that he can see and chase it. Some cats respond particularly well when a ball is rolled or tossed into another place or around a corner.

3. Play With Your Food

Puzzle feeders and food distributor balls are toys that incorporate your cat's food into a compartment inside. By rolling or pouncing on the toy, your cat can make it release a few pieces of food at a time. Using a puzzle feeder stimulates your cat's desire to hunt and work for food. Remember to account for the food inside a puzzle feeder when determining your cat's daily nutrition allowances.Try to be the best friend of yor healthy cat.
