It’s best to play with your kitty a couple times a day to help re-direct energy and improve their health and behavior, but the same toys can get old after a while.
This is why one of the absolute best toys any cat-parent can have is a wand toy!
A wand toy is one of the easiest and most interactive toys that you can purchase to play with your cat and will help even the most play-challenged out there. However, there are a couple things to keep in mind when purchasing one.
Wand Length
Make sure the wand you choose is really long. The further away your hand is from the toy on the end, the more fun and authentic of an experience it’s going to be for your cat.
Not only that, but it will protect your fingers from accidental scratches as your kitty plays!
Wand Attachments
You should also consider purchasing a wand with a leader-type attachment. This will allow you to switch out the attachments on the wand and provide your kitty with a variety of toy colors, shapes, and sizes.
This will help keep things interesting for your cat because it’ll be like a brand new toy every time! If your cat is a really challenged player, you might even change out the attachments multiple times in a single play session to really help them stay engaged.
As you can see, wand toys are great for a variety of reasons. You can find the one we use and love here!
