Stuff for Cats
Looking for products that'll make life with cats just that little bit easier? If you're on the hunt for cat toys specifically - I'd recommend starting with home alone cat toys; since cats can play with by themselves, these help keep feline boredom at bay. Got a difficult-to-engage, lazy kitty like Avery? Give electronic squeak/chirp cat toys a try.
