Do not think that games – the frivolous occupation which is taking away time in vain. Games allow to learn the world around, to keep physical shape, to study communication with those who are near. They save from boredom, at last. And not very well who plays – the child or a kitten.
If it is boring for a cat, she will draw in every possible way attention to herself: to bite by hands, to attack from an ambush or to hang on a carpet. Toys will help to solve a problem.
To buy or make?
What toys the pet – purchased or with own hand made will play, to solve to the animal owner. However it is necessary to consider that kittens quickly lose interest in objects, and any toy, even bought for big money, becomes useless after several active games.
Reasonable exit – independently to manufacture simple devices to occupy your favourite. Production will not demand a lot of time, expensive materials, but the result will deliver many joyful minutes and to you, and the pet.
When the hunter's instinct works, the kitten needs to catch up with somebody. For "victim" the bow from paper tied to a strong thread will quite descend. Take small, of the size of a candy wrapper from candy, the sheet of paper and a strong lace. Fix a lace by knot in the middle of a paper leaf and make several rounds around core. Fix rounds by one more knot. You will quicker draw attention of a cat if you add to a usual toy plumelets, strips from a foil, a hand bell, a button. Slowly lower a bow and shake it before eyes of a cat. When reaction to a toy follows, sharply pull a lace, and then the cat will begin prosecution. Quickly move a toy on a floor, without allowing an animal to grasp a lace or paper. Remember that cats put all energy the first minutes of a game therefore if you see that the kitten pants, give him a toy thereby having taken a break in a game. It is desirable to organize games every day to develop muscles of an animal and not to allow development of obesity in it. Leaving the house, bind the fallen in love toy on the door handle, a back of a chair or in other available place, having made sure that the kitten will not spoil furniture or not to be wounded. Thus, you will not allow to miss to the favourite and will not leave time for pranks.
Precautionary measures
Provide to the kitten the safe territory for games. Make sure that electric wires are not available to him; toys do not contain the small and unsteadily fixed details which in the course of the game it is possible otgryzt and to swallow; nearby there are no objects which can wound an animal. Let there is a rumor that cats are capricious. But in the house where to them treat with care and love, there will be no problems with behavior and education.
