I am curious how much do you play with your cat(s)?
I was watching My cat from hell last night and he talked about playing with the cat until it was tired, panting and was done. My cats never reach that point.
My cats are indoors. They have toys like mice and balls that they will play with here and there on their own. I keep them up during the day though because my dog will eat them sigh. I have lazer that 3 of them go nuts for and cat wand things.
My problem is that they just don't get into it enough I guess? The red dot lazer is their most active toy. They will chase it around and I am good at getting them running and up the wall so they jump and pounce. But after maybe 2 mins they stop going after it. I let them "catch it" but they just seem bored of it fairly quickly. I will start moving it and they watch and watch but won't go after it anymore.
Then the wands they all love but one will just grab the toy and not let go for anything. The others won't really chase it much either. I try to make it super fun and exciting but after like 30 secs they are like no thanks I am done.
Perhaps I suck at playing lol. I thought about getting an interactive toy they could use on their own but not sure if they would.
Advice?
