Many cats enjoy playing with jingle balls, drinking straws (with supervision), catnip toys, feather wands, very large jingle bells, milk rings (the ring that comes off of a milk gallon), very large pompoms, and film canisters, all of which can be found at most stores. I do have a very small container that i fill with uncooked rice (about 1/3 filled) that they love to roll around with (be sure the cap is on tight). Do Not give them yarn or loose string to play with, as they can choke or ingest it. They also enjoy playing with large crumpled up pieces of paper or tin foil - but be sure these are big enough so that it wont fit in your cat's mouth, as once again, they could choke. Have fun with your cat and be careful in choosing the right toys! my cats like playing with fluffy things and thing that move around. :)

Squeaky toys or balls of wool
I recommend yarn if funds are an issue. Tying a bell or feathers to the end could add to the cat's interest level. You can also purchase many cat toys similar in design. Something that makes a little noise, such as a rattle or bell, and is an appealing texture for the cat would be best. A handle could help in keeping your hands away from the claws. Also, if your cat likes scratching things up a bit, get a scratching post or rug for them to demolish, and praise them for playing with it to help keep them away from your furniture.

This is really going to depend on the cat. Every cat is different and will prefer different toys over other. Some favorites include:

  • My cat's favorite is a ball. She loves those. A suggestion for toys that you have already purchased that your cat doesn't play with is to sprinkle catnip on them. The cat will go crazy.
  • My cat likes those toys on the stick with the feathers.
  • A cats favorite toy is . . . YOU! Cats love playing with you!

Toys that imitate mice or birds, especially if they are filled with catnip.

This greatly depends on the cat. Many cats, when in playful moods, greatly enjoy chasing and attacking toys, such as ones on string and a stick, toys filled with catnip and even laser pens. Lots of cats love attention and loved to be played with and petted.

Other cats just like to sit around really like being petted or just eating cat treats. Some prefer to be left alone.

It really depends on the type of cat and its mood at that time.

It depends on the cats personality. Some cats will play with almost anything. (ex. yarn, strings, tags, hairbands, etc.) You could get fake mice, or any type of cat toy to see what your cat likes. then you will know what toys to get more of.

Cats need a safe place to live where they will not be in danger, and they need enough food and clean water to drink. Other than that, cats like a place that has lots of interesting things to explore. You can build or buy cat "condos" with tunnels and rooms for the cat to climb in and out of, or you can rearrange your house to change things around. Toys are also a good idea for a cat - both toys that it can play with when you are gone, and toys that both of you play with. Cats also need socialization with you - time when you play with it and pet it and talk to it.
