4. **Cat Trees and Climbing Structures:** Cats love to climb and explore. A cat tree or shelves mounted on the wall can provide exercise and a new perspective on their environment.

5. **Interactive Laser Play:** Safely use a laser pointer for your cat to chase. Always end the game with a tangible toy or treat so your cat feels like they “caught” something.

6. **Paper Bags and Boxes:** Cats often enjoy playing in and exploring paper bags and cardboard boxes. Cut holes in boxes to create a kitty maze.

7. **Feather Teasers:** Feather toys or toys with dangling feathers can captivate your cat’s attention and encourage them to jump and swat.

8. **Catnip Play:** Many cats are sensitive to catnip. Use catnip-filled toys or sprinkle a bit on scratchers to entice play.

9. **Interactive Cat Apps:** Some smartphone apps are designed for cats with moving objects or critters on the screen that your cat can “hunt.”

10. **Treat Puzzles:** Use treat-dispensing toys or puzzle feeders to make your cat work for their food. It’s mentally stimulating and can slow down their eating.

11. **Bubbles:** Blow cat-safe bubbles for your cat to chase. Ensure the bubbles are non-toxic and suitable for pets.

Remember to supervise playtime and provide a variety of activities to keep your cat engaged and happy. Always prioritize your cat’s safety and avoid small objects that could be swallowed or pose a choking hazard.
