But dont worry, we understand you lack ideas for now, and we have a couple of suggestions you could use.
How about you start with some toys? They will keep your cat busy when you are not around and they will give it something to chew on, saving your carpets and furniture. And you have quite a few great choices, from simple plastic toys to smart, stimulating games that will develop your cats hunting skills.
Talking toys are also quite handy when it comes to finding nice cat games for your furry friend. They give you a chance to capture the cats interest, learn its reactions and use them to your advantage. From a meowing toy cat to a crying baby or a barking dog, you can teach you cat to socialize the nice way. Some toys are so interesting that you will love playing with them yourself, but be careful not to get scratched in the process.
You could also play fetch. You have probably had enough time to find a small object your cat likes. Throw it around the house, make your cat get it to you and reward its efforts every time. You will soon find it one of the funniest cat games you could ever play, especially when you want to get your kitty out of the way and you do not know how.
And dont forget about the magic box. An empty box may appear silly and insignificant to you, but it could represent a world to discover for your cat. Studies show cats like to play in boxes, get in and out or deposit their toys in them, so a box on the floor might actually work miracles when you are not around.
And let us not forget about maintaining mystery. Hiding small treats, toys or rewards around the house could also be fun as long as your kitty is allowed to look for them and carry them around from one room to another. This is one of the cat games meant to create diversion and stimulate cats curiosity, but it might work on the masters as well.
At the end of the day, playing games is not only benefic for your cat, but for you as well, so before you say no and look for excuses, such as having too much on your mind, being too tired or too old, just try a few games and see how it goes.
It is difficult to suggest just one game or one toy because cats are different, but you should know yours and identify the best cat games in no time.
