7 Easy Ways to Keep Your Cat Happy & Active
Think your indoor cat is bored?
Just like dogs, cats need stimulation, fun, and love – especially when they live indoors.
Here are 7 simple ways to turn your home into a happy feline playground:
1. Create Vertical Territory
Cats love climbing. Use cat trees, shelves, or window perches to give them a sense of height and control.
2. Use Puzzle Feeders
Turn mealtime into brain time! Puzzle toys make your cat work a little to get treats – and they love it.
3. Play Daily (Yes, Every Day)
Even 10 minutes a day with a wand toy or laser pointer makes a huge difference in their mood.
4. Set Up a Window View
Place a perch near a window so your cat can “watch TV” – birds, people, trees. It keeps them calm and curious.
5. Rotate Toys Weekly
Don’t leave all toys out at once. Hide some and rotate every few days to make old toys exciting again.
6. Use Catnip (or Silvervine!)
Not all cats respond, but if yours does – a sprinkle of catnip or silvervine can lead to zoomies, purrs, and naps.
7. Respect Their Quiet Time
Cats need alone time too. Make sure they have a quiet, cozy spot where they feel safe to nap and recharge.
💡 Bonus tip:
Keep a small box or paper bag around – you’d be surprised how much fun a simple cardboard box can bring.
