Tabby Tiger and Cat Coach Julie
BECOME CAT-WISE WITH THESE SIX TIPS
Playing is one of the most essential activities for the cat.
Welcome to our page where we discuss the importance of playing with your cat. Playing is indeed one of the most important activities for cats, not only because it helps them exercise and satisfy their hunting instincts, but also because it plays a vital role in strengthening the bond between you and your cat.
Playing with your cat can encourage physical activity, which is essential for their health and well-being. It can also help prevent boredom and behavioral problems, such as aggression or destructiveness.
On this page we will discuss different reasons why you should play, how you should play and also, for example, how long you should play with your cat.
So, if you're looking for ways to strengthen the bond between you and your cat while helping your cat stay active and healthy, feel free to watch our Tabby Tiger videos and discover the many benefits of playing with your cat.
TIP 1 - Why play with your cat?
Playing with you is important because your cat is a hunter!
She's built to climb, jump, chase, search, and catch.
Cat coach Julie explains why it's so important in just over a minute.
TIP 2 - How to play with your cat
You already know that playing is important. The next step is how to best play with your cat. We often hear that cats aren't interested or that their interest disappears after a few minutes.
Cat coach Julie explains how to play in just over two minutes.
TIP 3 - How long and when to play?
On average, you should play with your cat two to three times a day. Don't worry, it doesn't always have to be the same length. It can range from a few minutes to ten minutes. But what if your cat isn't in the mood, or you aren't?
Cat coach Julie explains the best approach in just under two minutes.
TIP 4 - Which toy fits best?
Cats love small things that run away and move, so they can chase and catch them. A great way to get toys moving is the Tabby Tiger cat wand.

TIP 5 - Put everything away after playing!
Always put the fishing rod away after playing. This will prevent your cat from biting the rod or toys and potentially swallowing small parts. We want to avoid that, of course!
Cat trainer Julie explains why this is a good idea in just under a minute.
TIP 6 - Always reward after playing!
A play session should also be followed by a reward. This could be a treat toy or a tasty, healthy Tabbies snack. This way, you ensure your cat doesn't get frustrated when you suddenly stop playing.
