Cat Things

I am the owner of three very different cats, Danny Mittens a black polydactyl, Stole an elderly tuxedo cat, and Babe Cattykins a young black and white cat. I am at their beck and call, day and night and their welfare is of prime concern. If you adore your cats your cats will adore you.

I like to keep my cats happy because they bring so much joy into my life. Trying different foods, bedding, scratching posts and toys. To be honest they would probably be happy with cardboard boxes and bits of screwed up paper, but I don’t really want the litter permanently in my living room. So I buy catnip toys, things on strings, things to climb, and things to sleep in.

My cats are outdoorsy, so I am constantly letting them in, letting them out, in, out, in, out, etc. So the next cat things that I need for my sanity are catflaps. It isn’t so bad just now while the weather is warm and the doors and windows can be left open but it is a project that I intend to work on before the cold weather sets in. Cats can cause frustration at times but they make me smile and laugh every day which makes it all worthwhile.

Toys For Cats

If you want to keep your cat happy you will probably want to buy it a variety of toys. These can vary from the bigger items like climbing trees, cat gyms and scratching posts to the smaller catnip mice, cat dancers and things on strings. It is fun looking for presents for your cat; there is such a variety and something to suit all budgets.

If the toys are well loved they will need replacing from time to time. Scratching posts will probably need replacing more often if you have more than one cat. Catnip toys can’t be washed so they too will need replacing. Toys can be dangerous when they wear out; if the stuffing is coming out throw it away.

Each cat will have its favourite type of toy, often it is what they liked best as a kitten. If you acquire an older cat they may not feel very playful and you might want to try a variety of toys. Once a cat feels happy and secure they usually will want to play even if they are quite old. And your cat will love it as you give it your full attention when you play too.
