Automated Cat Toy: Endless Fun and Entertainment for Your Cat(s)!

By

Okay, this is ingenious! The BurgeonNest Automated Cat Toy (Amazon link) is perfect for cats who love to play and be entertained (almost all of them, in other words). I can see all of my own cats loving this toy!

Like many cat families, we have inside cats as well as outside cats. The prime “indoor” living arrangement is a “first come, first inside” thing in our family. The ones who live inside with the family have been around longer and, frankly, have said “NO MORE ROOMS AVAILABLE,” so the rest of the family live just on the other side of the door in wonderfully constructed cat houses, a patio, and a carport all their own.

The indoor cats have some advantages and the outdoor cats have some advantages. One of the biggest advantages the outdoor family members have is endless entertainment, mental stimulation, physical activity, and an ever-changing environment to keep them sharp, engaged, and interested.

When it comes to indoor cats, we have to stay on our toes by providing similar advantages for them. Frequently adding new toys (and taking old ones in and out of the rotation), moving toys, new games, etc. help immensely. Busy, entertained, and mentally stimulated cats are healthier AND happier.

Interactive Catnip Rug: Colorful, Fun, and Downright Ingenious

By

My grandbabies have a few interactive toy rugs they LOVE…. and the adorable thing is, so do our cats! When the babies leave their rugs spread out on the floor and wander to another room, inevitably a few cats come to check it out and stay a while.

That’s why I searched out play rugs just for cats a few days ago on Amazon. I was THRILLED to find this Interactive Catnip Rug (Amazon link) and knew I had to add it to the 2021 Christmas Gift Ideas for Cats lineup!

This colorful beauty is just perfect in every way. The interactive play mat is “inspired by the magic of a nighttime garden” and it’s simply beautiful.

The soft and cushy catnip playmat is actually a stroke of genius and I’m surprised I haven’t seen more like this before. When we buy catnip, we always sprinkle a little bit under the blankets on our cats’ favorite beds and resting spots. They love it and it’s great fun to watch them enjoying it BUT it’s unbelievably messy! Having a ready-made, neat and tidy catnip rug is ideal and I can’t wait to see our cats enjoying it!

Fun, Interactive Rug for Cats: Like Their Own Little Playground

By

My youngest daughter and I were in a store, earlier, looking for rugs for our outside cats. They normally wander around the property (we live in the country, so there’s plenty of room to explore!) each day but when the weather is especially hot or especially cold, they don’t leave the carport or patio! I love for them to have special rugs, seats, and houses to lounge in and on.

Basically, they’re every bit as loved and spoiled as our inside cats.

We never found the rugs we had in mind, so I jumped on Amazon when we got home.

Bullseye!

Not only did I find a rug like I had in mind… I found one even better! This interactive cat rug is a comfortable place for cats to sit and sleep AND is like a little playground for them at the same time. When you click through the link, you can read a lot more about this extra special rug. It’d be idea for indoor cats or outdoor cats.


I Threw These Catnip Toys RIGHT Into My Amazon Cart…

By

Like most cats, our perpetual toddlers are obsessed with catnip toys. We buy them frequently for them because they get almost as big a kick out of playing them as we do watching them play.

I was on Amazon, earlier, looking at French Butter Crocks of all things when the “inspired by your buying history” got me sidetracked with (shocking!) cat toys. As soon as I saw this set of 5 Catnip Toys (Amazon link), I just threw it right into the cart… it landed right on top of the French Butter Crock.

They’re available in three different multi-color combinations and each is great-looking.

I love the size of these catnip toys – they’re bigger than a lot of toys and I know our cats will get a huge kick out of them. I also love that they come in a pack of five – if your house is a multi-cat house, like our house, you’ll love having plenty to go around. If you have one spoiled rotten baby, you’ll have a nice rotation of catnip toys for him/her to enjoy that’ll last for months.

Features:

  • Perfect Gift: The cat chew toy has catnip inside a breathable fabric, allowing cats smell the catnip easily.
  • Bite resistant: Fine suture of this cat toy makes it durable for biting.
  • Safe and High Quality Material: More Durable Cotton Linen
  • Stuffed with Soft PP Cotton and Natural Catnip
  • Helping reduce your pets’ boredom and separation anxiety by killing time with the chew toy and the catnip toys for cats are ideal for cats to play indoor or outdoor.
