😻 Play is great enrichment for cats, so we’re bringing back these lovely illustrations by Lili Chin from our 2022 International Cat Day campaign!

There are many different ways cats can play, so take note of what your cat likes to do. 🪶 A wand toy is a good place to start – try wiggling it in short bursts along the floor or swooping it slowly through the air above them.

🔔 Give yourself a reminder to play with your cat for 5 minutes each day and you will also see how much it improves your bond with them.

Check out more ways to enrich your cat’s life at home and make your home more cat friendly 👉 https://icatcare.org/advice/making-your-home-cat-friendly/

Excellent information and ideas here for owners of older cats or cats with reduced mobility.
Talk to us if you have worries about your cats mobility if you haven’t already. Cats often hide discomfort and pain and so watching for changes in behaviour (eg reluctance to jump) can be the best indicator that there are problems.
