Kittens start by trying to grab their Mother’s tail as she swishes it back and forth. They love to play with maple tree helicopters, jump in loose leaves, and chase the leaves as the wind moves them around. They love to play with a medium size ball of aluminum foil. One of my cats had a fetish with sponges; she would remove them from my sink and play with them. I ended up purchasing a lot of new sponges for my dishwashing needs.
Cats Can Play With Almost Any Cat Toy
Cats can play with any toy that seems to catch their fancy. Empty toilet paper rolls are a big hit with some cats. When cats catch a mouse, they love the catch-and-release technique until the mouse dies. Kittens start wrestling with their brothers and sisters to see who the top cat is. In my house, next door Cali is the head of the household. Cali is part Siamese, which is why she has been able to hold on to her position as the top matron of the house. Cali does not hurt or harm the other cats, but she has her way of letting them know she rules the roost. She was the first to try out my new Litter -Robot litter box. All of the other cats learned how it worked from her.
Cats Learn From Each Other
When a new cat toy is placed in your house, one cat seems to go for it ASAP, and then the other cats in your home learn how to use it by watching your leed cat. I have a cat treat dispenser that Conrad mastered, and Kohl and Garfunkel have also gotten their fair share of treats. The circle game toy is an excellent example. My cat Red had the circle toy mastered to perfection. He was ambidextrous, and the ball would speed around the track like greased lightning. Philmoor watched Red, and he was able to master the circle ball toy.
Cats learn from watching one another very quickly. My cats come running when I call them by name. Kohl likes to brush my hair with his paws now and then. Garfunkel loves to lick my fingers, and Conrad occasionally gives little love nips. My cats love to roll around on warm cement and eat fresh grass and catnip. Cats are curious creatures and can make a game almost out of anything.
Treat Your Cat To New Cat Toys
Treat your cat to a new cat toy or make one from things you have in your home that would be pet friendly. Watching a cat or kitten at play is very relaxing. If you have a cat toy with a string and a fish on the end of it, you and your cat can interact together. Your cat will love the extra attention that he is getting. When he is done playing, he will probably purr away until he falls soundly asleep in your lap. I hope you and your cat have many years to interact together.
