What's the All-Time Best Selling Cat Toy?

You would think it's one of those cat toys that you see on TV

right? You know the one that seems to have a TV commercial

every ten minutes? While thousands of that [as seen on TV] toy

may have been sold, the number sold does not surpass the all-

time best selling toy for kitty. Which is... Mice, mice and

mice!

If your cat has been part of your family for a while, I'm sure

that mouse toys have been a hit in the entertainment

department for your cat. Mice just never seem to fail at

making your cat want to play.

If you're getting a new kitty, some of the necessities that

should be included in your preparation for his or her arrival

is, of course, cat toys. With a new cat or kitten, you don't

yet know the preference of your fur baby. Therefore, it's best

to get a variety of toys and let the cat decide which type of

toy he or she likes best. Cats seem to like mice better than

some of the other toy types because of their natural instinct

to hunt mice.

The overall best selling cat toy is the toy mouse. Of course,

that in itself is not simple. Cat toy mice come in so many

varieties that it can make your head spin. There are tiny

mice, realistic looking mice, mice that rattle, some have

catnip inside, some come in bright colors, some are natural

colors, long tails, furry tails, corded tails, tails with

bells, yarn tails, corded mice, yarn mice, you get the picture

right?

Kitty needs a mixture of balls, mice, toys on a string and

battery-powered toys are usually a hit too! Getting your new

fur baby an assortment of toy types is a plus. This lets him

or her choose what type of toy they like best.

Once your cat shows a preference to the type of toy they like

best, branch out with some variations of that toy. For

example, if your cat likes mice the best, you could literally

provide a hundred different variations such as: Mice with

feathers, bells or rabbit fur, plush mice, rattling mice, big

mice, small mice and brightly colored or real looking mice.

Then, let kitty decide which ones are the best for them.

When your cat has decided what type of toy mice they prefer,

stock up! I can't say this enough! I talk with pet parents

daily and I can't tell you the devastation they feel when

their cats favorite toy suddenly gets discontinued by the

manufacturer. It's not uncommon for a toy that's in demand to

be discontinued and no longer available. You've never seen

such a sad face as that on a cat that has just lost the very

last one of his favorite and special toys. You'll find

yourself turning the house upside down trying to find that

special toy that has gone missing and your cat will continue

to give you that sad face hoping that you find it. It helps to

keep at least a few of the top picks of cat toys that your cat

likes on hand. Then, if that toy becomes unavailable, you'll

have some in reserve until you can find an alternative that

kitty will hopefully like just as much.

Mice toys are without a doubt the most loved toy by cats and

are probably less expensive than some of the other toy types.

I sure hope you won't encounter that "look" from your cat when

that loved toy disappears into who knows where!
