Instructions

    • 1

      Purchase a cat toy with feathers or strings attached to the end of a long, plastic stick. Start by moving the toy along the floor, then flick the toy up to get your cat to stretch and jump to catch it.

    • 2

      Run the cat toy up and down the stairs. This will get the cat to run and climb (and you'll be giving yourself a little exercise as well). Or drag the toy along back of the sofa or a chair.

    • 3

      Attach the toy to the top of a cat tree. This will make the cat jump, climb and stretch to get at it, exercising his back and shoulder muscles.

    • 4

      Save the caps from your empty milk cartons. Drop the caps onto any hard surface in front of your cat. Watch as he runs, jumps and flicks the caps about.
