Hello

Cats seem to be very bored lately. They have a catio which due to the weather they are not really using

Ive tried 20 plus toys from the little ones in aldi to a cat wheel.

Anyone have anything else random I could try ?

They seem most interested in birds outside and things that run from then

Plastic toys and " brain trainers " get sniffed and left

Thanks

Mine used to love ping pong balls, not chasing them but waiting for you to throw them to her so she could smack them back. Or one of these

it looks like something you'd unblock a sink with, but she was obsessed with it.

My boy goes absolutely nuts chasing a laser pointer. Avoid eyes though.

My cat isn't very interested in laser pointers but when she's feeling punchy she does like to beat the hell out of a catnip fish:

Once the original catnip wears off just add a few drops from a bottle.

And string is always a cheap reliable toy.

Biggest winners for us...

Or just a rolled up sheet of paper, strip of cardboard, one of those thick rope-like strings from a good quality paper shopping bag and hair bobbles.
