Cats are full of energy and curiosity, and their owners often try to satisfy them with toys. However, cats often don't like the toys that their owners buy for them, which can be disappointing.
The reason for this is that owners sometimes don't choose the toys that their cats like. Here are some types of toys that cats can't resist:
1. Paper toys, such as facial tissue, toilet paper, and other types of paper. Cats have a soft spot for paper toys.
2. String toys, such as yarn balls, data cables, and hemp ropes. Cats love to play with string toys, even if they sometimes get tangled up in them.
However, when selecting toys for your cat, it's important to consider which ones are safe and which ones need to be put away when you're not at home. Although a cat is less likely to be injured while resting, when playing alone, it's very likely to accidentally swallow some wool and cause harm.
3.Cardboard boxes. Cats are relatively insecure animals, and the narrow space of a cardboard box can give them a sense of security. Instead of buying toys for your cat, it's better to leave an unpacked express box for them to play with.
The cardboard box can not only satisfy the cat's habit of hiding, but also allow it to sharpen its claws, and it can also be used as a cat bed.
4.Plastic toys, such as plastic bags, convenience bags, and even snack packaging bags. Cats are particularly sensitive to the sound of plastic bags. When your cat is hiding, you can simply find a plastic bag and rub it, and your cat is likely to come out immediately.
Cats especially like to get into bags, and they feel safe in the tight environment. However, in general, it's best to avoid letting cats play with plastic bags. When a cat in a bag is frightened, it can become stressed, and in severe cases, the cat can die.
5.Round ball toys, such as table tennis balls, yarn balls, and bell balls. Cats like round ball toys because they can entertain themselves by simply moving their paw a little and making the ball roll.
Precautions for preparing cat toys:
Pay attention to materials that are easy to swallow.
Cats like to hold things in their mouth, which makes it easy to accidentally swallow something and get it stuck in their throat.
Put away rubber bands and other small items that a cat can swallow. These things can enter the cat's digestive system and cause vomiting or diarrhea. In some cases, it can be much worse than that.
Pay attention to candy wrappers. Cats cannot resist the crumpled texture and sweet taste of candy wrappers and will eat them without hesitation. These wrappers can melt in your cat's stomach and form a film that blocks the absorption of nutrients from food.
