Are Squeaky Toys Good for Cats?
Answer
Cats love toys, and the kind of toy your cat might like will depend on its personality. Typically cats like movement, which makes toys that move are ideal choices. If the toy has rapid and unpredictable movement, you can rest assured that your cat will love it. Some cats love toys that reflect light or appear to change form in some way or another. Additionally, toys that are around the size of their prey, like mice, are also good. Similarly, many cats also love squeaky toys that make a similar sound to their prey. This stimulates the hunting instinct in them. However, some cats might get startled by squeaky toys and therefore introduce such toys to them carefully. To increase your cat's interest in the toy, you can rub the toy in catnip. Bear in mind that cats get bored quickly, so make sure to swap toys every few days to keep your cat interested.
