Best Toys To Keep Your Cat Happy And Engaged

Ever seen your cat sit, meow and stare at you as if you’re the one who’s invented boredom? But then again, they’re not completely wrong. Our kitties originated in the wild and when we brought them to our homes as the most cherished family members, the responsibility of finding them different sources of fun came to us. 

Cats need more hours of stimulating playtime than you think. Their idea of fun is to run around, catwalk, think about their next prey and finally use their kitty claws and canine to do what they do best - hunt. Cat toys help tap into these natural instincts, keeping them happy, engaged and satisfied. 

Here are 7 cat toys (in no particular order) we consider as the best to keep your cat waaaay away from boredom:

HUFT Tip: Some cats react to catnip while some cats don’t. Here’s a small experiment you can conduct at home. Before introducing a catnip toy to your cat, try feeding them a little bit of catnip (non-toxic shrub). Observe how they react to it. If they like it, only then invest in catnip toys. If you see your cat not showing any reaction to the catnip, chances are they do not have the genetic receptors to feel its effects.

7. HUFT Tinkle Tail Matatabi Wand Cat Toy

How can we talk about cat toys and not mention the magic wand that makes your cat’s wishes come true with just a swish and a flick! HUFT Tinkle Tail Matatabi Wand Cat Toy brings out your pet's most instinctive reactions as it mimics playing with a real bird. As you wave this magic wand over them, you’ll find their paws get active, eyes all excited and butts wiggling with anticipation as they finally pounce.

The wand features matatabi, which is sure to grab your little hunter’s attention and help reduce anxiety. The hanging part of the toy, often designed as a small animal, insect, or feather, serves as the "prey" that cats love to catch with their paws. The wooden part of these toys acts as a barrier, keeping the "prey" out of reach and your hands safe from your cat's playful claws.
