Play that keeps indoor cats happy

Ten minutes of hunting a day changes everything. The toys that work, and the games cats never tire of.

Start small

Pets love routine more than novelty. Pick one thing to change, do it at the same time each day, and give it two weeks before you judge it.

Choose what suits them

A young dog needs more play than a grand old one, and a shy cat needs a quieter corner than a bold one. Watch what your pet already likes and build on it.

• Keep sessions short and end on a good moment.
• Reward calm, not just tricks.
• Wash beds and toys often, at 30 degrees.

Notice the small signs

A softer coat, a calmer evening, a cat who sleeps in the new bed instead of the box it came in: those are the signs it is working.

Small, steady habits make the happiest pets.

Ask when unsure

If your pet seems unwell, ask your vet first. We are happy to help you choose a size or a material.
