Playing
will significantly reinforce the bond between
you and your cat! There is a popular misconception
that only kittens like to play. Untrue! Cats
will happily interact with you in a playful manner
for about 10 - 15 minutes at a time. Throw batting
toys, swish wand toys, point
a light on the wall…Be aware
that cats see better when something crosses their
vision horizontally, instead of directly in front
of their eyes.
Regular
play sessions go a long way to keeping your cat
social and an object of your affections!
Change the selection of toys you use regularly.
Cats get bored easily.
Play
will help your cat keep his weight down! Cats
get plenty of exercise outdoors, but depend on
you to give them exercise inside.
Play
will help your kitty release aggression, and
make him much more friendly.
Play
will help your cat get used to other people in
the house, and they will be less likely to leave
when strangers arrive.
