I don't even have a cat. But your voice and the general atmosphere of these videos calm me.

When I get back from the shops my cat is right there because she knows, I've got something for her. It's not toys or treats she's eagerly awaiting no no. I take receipts I don't need and ball them up, throw them and she's playing with that for hours.

Cats are awesome.

One of my cats loved to chase/fetch and bring back a little "napkin ball", hours of fun for him and certainly entertainment for us! Take a paper napkin, open it up where you see 4 squares, cut the squares and roll each one in a tiny ball and wrap 2 pieces of tape around each one so they will not come apart in the game. Max would jump incredibly high in the air to catch it or chase it around the room then bring it back and drop it at my feet and go a distance away to crouch and await for the next throw. Sometimes I would put a bit of catnip inside the ball.

Lesson learned from my cat: Simon, never point laser to your couch...well unless you are looking for an excuse to get a new one, and your cat will be very helpful in this case

One of my cat loves straws... we always get an extra straw when we go to mcdonalds to take home for him. He LOVES it he will take it away from the others and growl if another cat comes over to sniff at his straw. Haha!

After having a cat for a few years, my husband brought home a kitten to help with his separation anxiety when we leave for work. The rescue kitten absolutely loves every toy we have, like strings, bell balls, and every other thing she can get her paws on (including garbage and socks) but the older one only likes his battle worn fishing rod with a mouse on the string. Sadly, the kitten was a stray who hasnt quite learned that feet and hands are not toys, but it's been far easier trying to teach her not to bite and draw blood than it has been to teach my husband not to rough house with her. Its taken weeks to convince him that her aggressions towards us is directly related to using hands for play, something that gets her frustrated and angry, and its still a constant issue trying to get him to understand that he needs to stop playing and ignore her when she goes after hands instead of toys. Honestly he's far more difficult to train than the cats xD

I had a cat who learned within a minute where the laser pointer was coming from and if you turned it on, he would look at it and promptly walk over and smack it out of your hand.

My cats are not interested at all in the red dot...but give them a box with some type of wrapping paper in it and the party is on.

My cats 17 and still gets playful from time to time

Ricci's favorite toy was a black and white dollar store stuffie that looked just like him. He'd drag it all over. He'd sleep, play, kick, bite, clean it, it was his sidekick. When I went back to work he began spraying. And in the morning before I left for work I'd make the bed and set his kitten in the bed. When I'd get home the kitten stuffie would be in the closet where Ricci had sprayed, like he was setting the stuffie up for the fall. LMAO! 😹

My cat just has string too, simple but it works!

My cat Popper found a small strip of foam weatherstripping when we were insulating the house for winter. He was obsessed with it..we nicknamed it "Mr. Strippy" and Popper played with it constantly. Eventually it got lost, but when we offered him a new one he was not interested.
Another cat of ours, Blackbeard, was absolutely terrified of an stuffed catnip mouse we had. One of our other cats managed to rip it open and pull out the catnip and stuffing. Well, once it was no longer stuffed, Blackbeard loved it. He would carrry "Flat Mouse" everywhere, even when he was eating or sleeping. One day I was vacuuming and got a little too close to Flat Mouse and sucked him up. Blackbeard sat by the vacuum and cried until I opened the bag and retrieved Flat Mouse.

Pipe cleaners. My Bengal-Morgan will open my cupboard & pull all of them out. Woke up to scattered pip cleaners all over the kitchen floor. Lol. Gotta ❤️ love'em !!

[laurajarrell]

Most of my cats have loved the simplest toys. Right now they have a box (sit in and bite, throw peices around) and a long, thin braid they carry around. Feathers, etc. Love and Peace

1:15 ... a cat called Nigel ...?

Yay!

... and he is a cutie ...

My cats have always loved the ring from a milk jug that breaks off when you open it.

My cat loved crushed up bits of foil. Used to throw them up the stairs and she would chase the foil ball as it fell and bounced down. Really enjoyed this video Simon, thanks.

I have two kittens, 5 months old, brother and sister, and I never bought any toy, rather make some. Scratching post with a log from the garden nailed on a plank from a disused wooden furniture and some thick rope around it; old shoe laces hanging from book shelves from little balls of wool at the end; old Tesco shopping bags and damaged cardboard boxes...They love everything, it's brilliant! Especially used tissues for some reasons =^-^=

[astranova]

Lasers are fun but I found the most fun was to collect all the nice feathers on walks. When I had a bunch of them tie them altogether, then onto a long string and a long garden cane! Makes for great running and chasing in the garden 😊
