Cat toy suggestions

Question

Hi Everyone! 

I'm adopting a brown Burmese from a shelter called Arlo. Apparently she used to spend a long time enjoying life outside, and i am worried that she wont accustom well to life being inside. Are there any toy suggestions that would help keep her engaged and entertained being inside? 

Any advice would be fantastic!

You need to provide enough environmental enrichment for your cat so they stay entertained and engaged. Cats are highly active creatures who need regular stimulation from their environment. This implies your cat must have multiple things to do.
some toys suggestions:

cat Tree
hanging Tops 
puzzle Board 
Play Tunnels 
scratching

Thanks for getting in touch! I think it’s great that you’re thinking about your pet’s mental health - you’re going to be a terrific owner!

I agree with the previous answer: cat trees, platforms, and scratching posts are the basics. In addition, you should purchase toys that can provide mental stimulation. Here are a few articles where you can find recommendations on the best toys for cats:

Here are some popular types of cat toys that you might consider:

Balls: These can be great for cats that like to chase and pounce.

Wands: These toys typically have a feather or other dangling object at the end of a string. They can be good for interactive playtime with your cat.

Puzzle toys: These toys are designed to challenge your cat's mind and provide mental stimulation. They often involve hiding treats or toys inside a puzzle that your cat has to solve to get to the reward.

Scratchers: These toys are great for cats that like to scratch. They can help protect your furniture by giving your cat a designated scratching area.

Catnip toys: These toys are infused with catnip, which many cats find irresistible. They can be a great way to provide your cat with some extra stimulation and fun.
