Get Chasers & Teasers for Cats in Hardy

Cats are fascinated with toys. If you were to close your eyes and think back on your happiest times with your cat, chances are that the images that come to mind are your cat(s) playing. Hunting, attacking, overpowering, and hitting toys around provides cats and their people tons of joy - so why do cats so often dismiss the toys we bring home for them?

There is one very practical rule to remember when getting toys for cats: cats enjoy a variety of toys. They like a selection of interactive cat toys that use each of their hunting skills. If you have plenty of toys, you can rotate your cat's options so they can hunt for a preferred toy. Just don't hide a favorite toy away forever. Ensure that your cats have chances to play with all of their toys frequently.

What are the kinds of cat toys? Here are just a few:

Balls and chasers entice your cat to chase with feathers, fun noises, and peculiar shapes.

Chew toys are a great option for cats that enjoy to chew. They also help to keep your cat's breath fresh and their teeth clean.

Interactive and electronic toys bring out the best in your cat's hunting abilities.

Plush and mice toys eventually are beloved toys that can relax and ease your cat when it's time to go into the carrier.

Scratcher posts and mats are a must for all ages of cats, from kitties to older cats.

Teasers and wands are terrific toys for sharing playtime with your cat.

Tunnels become the hiding places where you can quickly find your cat.

And variety packs help ensure your cat always has a fun toy.

Cats like toys that are light and small enough to be whacked without a lot of effort. They also like toys that are small enough to be grasped. And their favorite toys are objects they can play with in numerous different ways.

When you are looking for toys for your cat, you need to be sure they don't have any strings that could be pulled off and swallowed. They need to be large enough that your cat won't try to eat them. They need to be made from non-toxic materials. Tiny button eyes and button noses are adorable, but anything that can be bitten off and swallowed is risky for your cat. Cats of all ages can be hurt by toys with sharp points and edges. At Barkley's Pet Market, we only offer toys that are safe for your cat.
