What kind of toys do
blind cats play with?
People ask what it’s like to have a blind cat.
Blind cats are very capable of adapting
to any kind of environment, given proper care,
nourishment, and attention. They use their senses
to orient themselves, and once they’ve done that,
they behave just like any normal cat does. We
always say a blind cat does not know they are blind,
they know they are cats, they act like cats.
Blind cats love to lounge around, and they also
love to play! In the case of a blind cat, toys they
can hear or smell prove to be more useful and fun
to use.
Here are many that our cats like to play with:
Catnip Hurricane
You will find the cats often playing with this
one. It is amazing to see how fast a blind
cat can switch the balls from one direction
to the next. https://amzn.to/2L29FVX
Crinkle Toys
Tower of Tracks
Plenty of sound helps them track and hunt.

Catnip Toys
Blind Cats depend on their sense of smell.

Catnip toys are always a favorite. These
have a very strong scent.
This is another favorite of the cats:
It goes around and around, makes lots
of sound and they love to pounce on it.
The seeing cats love it too!

The locomotion is another favorite
of the seeing and blind cats!
Goes around and around, makes noise,
they like to drag it off like they would prey.
Scratch and rest - The cats love these,
they scratch them but they really love sleeping
in them. Popcorn approves!

Cat Wheel
This is hit and miss with many of the cats.
We actually have 14 or so blind cats that will run
the wheel out of 100+ cats. We have 6 seeing cats
that will run it. Teaching younger cats is easy, if
they can see and chase a laser toy it just takes a
few tries to get them using it. If they are older or
over weight they will have zero interest in the wheels.
Our fat ones laugh at us at the very idea (smile)
They are lazy. You may get one at
