Are you looking for some ways to relieve your cat’s boredom? Playing with your cat is important to help keep your cat fit and healthy. This can give you and your cat a strong bond and open a new mind. So here are some games you can play with your cat in your Orie condo.
Mouse Chase
Get a toy mouse and attach a long, hard piece of string to it. Then get your pal and move the mouse with the string. Naturally, your cat will try to catch the mouse. Cats love this game because it allows them to use their predatory instincts. It is simple but effective! You can purchase a toy mouse at any pet shop.
Fetch
You have seen many dogs play fetch, so you must be surprised to find that cats love to play fetch too. This game will make your bond with your cat bigger. They like to play fetch because it will activate their hunting instincts. Even with their different behavioral hunting and playing styles with dogs. Playing fetch combines the elements of predatory and social behavior for both pets.
Laser lights
Cat laser pointers are enough to keep them from being overly bored. The laser can bounce through walls, floors, and even your cat! The toy is not harmless if, of course, you are in a safe environment. This game has lots of benefits for your cat including physical and mental stimulation.
Cardboard Boxes
You might be wondering why cats love boxes. The fact is cats love confined and enclosed spaces that feel safe, and cats are predatory and terrestrial animals that love to ambush, hunt, and snuggle. Sufficiently, boxes seem to be right on their list. So if you ever have cardboard boxes in your house, get one, cut a doorway, and let your cat test it out!
