1、 Why do we need cat toys?
- Cats are born as hunters, with a soft and agile body, flexible claws, sharp and sturdy teeth, sharp eyes, and sharp ears, making them rare hunters in nature. Our captive breeding has deprived his party of their nature and requires the use of cat toys to unleash their instincts and instincts.
- Studies have shown that most feline animals spend at least 8 hours a day practicing their hunting skills. As parents of cats, we need to provide them with space and equipment for communication, which are toys.
- On July 19, 2020, a British research institution released its research results to the world through foreign media. Cats destroy £ 340 million (2.98 billion RMB) of goods annually, second only to dogs and ranking second in animal destruction. 所以, there is an urgent need for cat toys to distract cats from their energy and not let our furniture and utensils become their prey.
- Cat depression is increasingly attracting attention, and according to research from the University of Michigan, 30% of cats suffer from depression, with varying degrees of severity. Cat toys can greatly reduce the incidence of depression in cats.
2、 What to pay attention to when choosing cat toys - Cats are fond of new toys and dislike old ones – scumbag cats???
Don’t underestimate your cat, your cat is not a scumbag!
There are several reasons why he doesn’t like old toys:
(1) Cats have a strong curiosity, which is why there is a saying that “curiosity kills cats”. It’s not that they have changed their minds, their temperament is naturally like this!
(2) If you get tired of playing with a toy every day, you will also get tired because the play routine of this toy is very clear, and playing with it will make you tired!
(3) Toys are already filled with their own scent, so things with their own scent are not as important. At this time, washing the toy may make it fall in love again.
In this case, you can clean and store the toys you don’t like, and then take them out after one or two months. They will be used as new toys again.
- Except for grinding claw toys, they must be able to move
No cat is willing to play foolishly with a silly toy. It must be a smarter toy that can arouse the interest of cats in playing
Toys themselves are designed to stimulate cats’ hunting instincts, and flexible toys make cats happier as they play. 所以, toys with medium to high mobility are suitable, as cats love to chase small animals that move at high speeds.
Mobile toys must not cause harm to cats. There is a solid ball with a steel wire connection that cats love to play with at first, but when the ball is played with by cats and hits them, they will not play much in the future.
- Odor toys cannot be played with by cats for a long time
The principle behind the design of odor toys is to use catnip, which can stimulate the cat’s nerves, to allow the cat to inhale it into the body and generate a brief excitement, similar to human drug use, which has a certain impact on the cat’s nervous system. Although this effect is relatively weak, prolonged use can have adverse effects on the cat’s body and can also be very dangerous.
