<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When it comes to the holidays, let\u2019s not forget our four-legged\u00a0feline friends<\/a>. After all, our cats are often more loyal than our family members, right? Plus, we\u2019re less likely to fight with our cats over the holidays\u2026 so they definitely deserve some bling.<\/p>\n First, how do I pick which cat toys make the \u201cTop 10\u201d list? As a\u00a0veterinarian, I want cat toys that are:<\/p>\n So, without further ado, buy me these top 10 cat toys, peeps:<\/p>\n Nothing beats a comfortable Cat Bed<\/a>\u00a0When in doubt, place this bed near a heat vent, and your cat will never want to sleep with you again. Don\u2019t get me wrong \u2013 I love sleeping with my cats. But when it comes to them sprinting around my head in Nascar-speed loops at 2 AM, I\u2019d rather they have their own resting place.<\/p>\n After your cat has rested all night, nothing beats sleeping some more. In the sun. And what better way to do this than to look outside and enjoy your room with a view from your Sunny Seat Window-Mounted Cat Bed<\/a>. The benefit? This window-mounted cat bed provides great entertainment for your cat. And it\u2019s actually a lot safer than letting your cat go outside, where they can potentially get lost, get hit by a car, or adopted by a random neighbor. When in doubt, make sure this bed is well suctioned and secured\u2026 or your cat will never touch it again.<\/p>\n Nothing beats stress relief than a day at the spa. Get your cat a Cat Massage Center<\/a> where they can rub their face all over this toy. What they\u2019re actually doing is marking their pheromone all over your plastic \u00a0belongings, but it feels oh-so-good! For this low price, you can\u2019t go wrong with this one. Top it off with some catnip to entice your cat to get the rub on.<\/p>\n It\u2019s plastic. And a ping pong. In one circle. But somehow, it\u2019s going to keep your kitten busy for hours. Seriously. This Turbo Cat Scratcher Toy<\/a> will keep your cat seriously entertained. A must for a new kitten household.<\/p>\n If you have kids (2-legged ones), you\u2019ve probably discovered that it\u2019s the random empty box, toilet paper roll, or Tupperware that keeps a toddler entertained. Sadly, cats are the same way. This fancy Peek-a-Prize Pet Toy Box<\/a> basically is a box with holes. And yet somehow your cat will find it entertaining. I found my 17-year-old could care less about this toy, but my younger 7-year-old cat loves it. Simply put your cat\u2019s favorite toys (try\u00a0crinkle balls) or\u00a0GREENIES <\/a>cat treats in the middle, and watch your cat attempt to work them out of the holes on the top and sides!<\/p>\n Admit it. Your cat is fat. If your cat likes to gorge on his or her food really quickly, only to vomit it back up several minutes to hours later, this PetSafeEgg-Cersizer Meal Dispensing Cat Toy<\/a>\u00a0 is for you. Petsafe SlimCat Meal Dispensing Cat Toy<\/a> is a great one too. It\u2019s a great way of being able to provide your typically-nonactive-cat some much needed environment enrichment. In other words, make him work for his food, play a bit, and lose some weight in the process.<\/p>\n If you have a kitten, this toy is a must. There\u2019s a reason this is the #1 cat toy on Amazon. This Catit Design Senses Play Circuit<\/a>\u00a0lets your cat chase and swat at the ball. Because you know they like to do that at 2AM. Tip: Keep it out of your bedroom.<\/p>\n Another fun toy? Da Bird<\/a>\u00a0is a feather on a string toy with a plastic (or fiberglass) handle. The feather toy is a great way of entertaining your cat \u2013 just be careful if your cat chews on the pieces (when in doubt, always supervise your cat while playing with toys so they chew any pieces off). Also, some older reviews say that the fiberglass handle can splinter off when handling \u2013 when in doubt, so just be careful.<\/p>\n While your cat might not view this as a gift, it secretly is the grooming power weapon. I\u2019ve tried lots of different types of combs and brushes on my dogs and cats, and this one is my #1 go to\u2026 unless you have a Sphynx. If you have any type of cat with fur, this FURminator<\/a> specifically works at removing the undercoat. Just be careful, as it\u2019s easy to remove too much fur! Just 10-20 swipes a week, and your cat will be matt-free.<\/p>\n OK, this last gift is for you. Not your cat. Not unless you\u2019re this<\/em><\/a>\u00a0cat. The\u00a0iRobot Roomba<\/a> ($360) will change your life. Seriously. I had to wait until my early 40s to be able to afford one, and with 2 cats and 1 dog, I regret not getting one for my house a decade earlier! Simply clear the floors, push a button, and watch this thing clean the floors in a mesmerizing fashion while you\u2019re drinking your coffee (with shrieks of \u201cThis is so amazing!\u201d as you sip).<\/p>\n So, what are you waiting for? Love up your cat and buy him or her some much-deserved toys for the new year!<\/p>\n\n
