Teaser toys
Teaser toys are the favorites among most cats. These are toys that require you to play with your cat as it is not something cats should play with on their own. These toys usually have some sort of plastic pole that you hold onto, attached with a string and something at the end like ribbons or feathers. Cat love these because they can use their natural instinct of pouncing.
Furry mice toys
Furry mice toys are another cat favorite because they look like real mice. And we all know how much cats love mice, right? Cats love to catch these toys as if they are hunting their prey.
Plastic ball toys
Plastic ball toys provide cats with a lot of fun chasing them around. Some of these ball toys have a bell in them, making them even more enticing to cats because of the sound. There are also ones that light-up or have catnip inside of them.

Cats are attracted to catnip because of an ingredients known as nepetalactone, which is designed to stimulate your cat.

A lot of cat owners don’t realize how important it is to give your kitty some toys (for alone time) AND to play/engage with them using the toys. My fattie, beloved beast at home would benefit from all these toys and activities! Thanks for the advice!!!
