Top Distracting Toys for Home-Alone Cats

1. Peek-a-Prize Toy Box

The most interesting feature  of this toy is that the cats' natural hunting and stalking instincts come into play in reality. Their interest is not particularly in the "prey", but in the thrill of the hunt. The floor became littered with toys flipped out of the box by one kitty or another. Be sure to stock the box with plenty of other toys to maximize your cat's home-alone playtime. This is a toy that cats will not grow tired of.

2. Catnip Cigar

Catnip Cigars are in high used in our house. We almost have three or four of them lying around in various stages of wear, and the little kitties usually  compete over the new ones. The catnip scent lasts amazingly too long.


 3. Cat Dancer

normal humans might pass right by this toy easily, but rare is the cat that won't be entranced by it. A thirty-inch piece of flexible piano wire with rolled cylinders of paper on the "play end" provides bouncing action that will keep cats busy indefinitely. Your little friends will go nuts over this one, and will give it very rough play. Because they're priced so low, I'd suggest you to buy more than one, especially with multiple cats.

4. Babble Ball

The Babble Ball with electronically activate "kitty-friendly" sounds and audio, will get your kitten's attention right away, and pique his curiosity as he tries to find the source of the voice. Don't kick one in the middle of the night,unless you want to jump out of your PJ's!.

5. Cosmic Pet Mylar Balls

kittens generally love shiny toys, and molar balls provide hours of chasing fun. You'll need a plentiful supply as these will tend to end up hidden under furniture.

6. Play-N-Treat Balls

Colorful and funny balls that you can fill with small treats. Normally The treats fall out of the holes in the side when kitty rolls the balls around and plays with. You can find two of them in the pack.

7. Paper Shopping Bags

Please don't forget the "freebies." Most of the cats love the crinkle and hiding ability of paper bags which we use them in normal life. Crunch one up to make it more interesting for your little friend, then open it up. Cut or tear a window or two in the side for hide 'n' seek with other cats. Hide a toy inside. Use your imagination and be creative, or just let your cat use her own. Our living room sometimes resembles a super-market disaster because of the number of paper shopping bags lying around the furniture. Don't forget to cut off any handles they may be harmful for your little friend.
