Kittens are exploring the world for the first time, so they are curious about lots of things and are easier to engage in play than older, mature cats. Kittens love feathers and anything that mimics prey that they can stalk, pounce and chase. Catnip mice that can be batted around and chewed are also a great choice. Give your kitten a variety of toys to see which one they gravitate towards the most. They might be bored with a plastic ball, but will love the rolling action of a spring that they can easily pick up in their mouth.

Should kittens have toys at night?
If you are going to leave your kitten unsupervised with toys out, make sure they don’t have small parts that can be chewed off and swallowed.

What should kittens not play with?
You should be very cautious of your kitten playing with wires, string and yarn. If swallowed, the string can get stuck in the intestine, causing severe damage and it may have to be removed through intensive surgery.
If you think your kitten has swallowed a toy or other foreign object, get to your vet immediately. They vet may be able to remove the toy more easily than if it travels down to your cat’s intestine.

Interactive toys like wands, laser pointers and puzzle toys challenge your kitten’s mind and can also increase your bond with your kitten when you spend playtime together. These toys are more unpredictable, so your kitten won’t get bored easily and will be entertained for hours.
Why do some toys have catnip, and is it safe for kittens?
Catnip,or Nepeta cataria, is a herb that is part the mint family. Cats have very sensitive senses of small and are drawn to catnip as it imitates sex hormones and induces a sense of euphoria that can make your cat more playful or relaxed. Catnip makes toys more appealing and encourages play. Some cats go crazy for catnip. Just make sure to monitor your kitten’s reaction and don’t offer in in large amounts or too often. Check with you vet for more guidance.
How can I encourage my kitten to play if they seem disinterested?
Your kitten has his own individual preferences for toys, so offering a variety of toys may help see what your kitten enjoys most. Kittens also crave your attention, so using interactive toys like wands with ribbons or feathers, can encourage your kitten to play if they don’t play by themselves. Adding catnip toys may also make your kitten more interested. You can buy pre-stuffed catnip plush toys that they can bite and tackle, or sprinkle some catnip on a scratcher or tunnel to get them engaged. Kittens also do better in pairs, so if you have two kittens or more, they should engage in games of chase and tackle.
How long should I play with my kitten each day?
Kittens are full of energy and need regular play sessions to stay mentally stimulated and physically fit. Two to three play sessions a day, lasting 10 -15 minutes should help meet your kittens needs and keep them out of trouble.
