You and your cat will have hours upon hours of fun playing with the Cat ‘N’ Mouse Cat Powered Cat Toy (9.75″ W X 2.5″ H)
from Petco. My cats and I speak from experience! From my vantage point, there’s nothing quite like seeing my babies having so much fun – they look so incredibly cute when they’re plotting to finally get the elusive mouse!
Just a swat of the cat’s paw sends the little mouse racing in circles inside this durable plastic toy.
The sisal pad on top is great for clawing and scratching – two of Alexa’s favorite pastimes. Right up there with eating and bird watching. I’ve noticed that my cats absolutely love having their own toys. You can practially “feel” Alexa’s excitement and joy each evening when I get on the floor with her and we gather her favorite toys around. Sometimes, I’ll intentionally “forget” one and she’ll walk over to it and look back at me – it’s her way of making sure all the toys make it to the party!
It’ll come as no surprise to you when I say that I look forward to our play time as much as she does.
Prissy, when she was younger, also loved to play. She’d get so excited, she’d go on what we called “rips” – where she’d run through the house, jumping on every piece of furniture she could find – only to return to where you and her toys were. Then she’d lay down, calmly and look at you like, “What?”
Alexa’s not much of a runner, though.
Svenn and Bo are more about giving and getting affection than they are playing. However, after they feel like their head rubbing, nose kissing, and back stroking quota has been met, they love a good game of swatting and/or chasing toys. Svenn isn’t too terribly quick – if he possesses any speed, he’s conserving it, but Bo and Alexa’s reactions are amazingly fast.
I just happened to glance over at Alexa, who is sleeping nearby. She’s totally out of it, resting up, no doubt for our evening play. When I go to the grocery store in a few minutes, I’m going to buy her a new toy (one with catnip oughta make her delirious), then I’ll spring it on her when the toys are being gathered up.
I love the way her eyes get wider when something new shows up!
