Hunting mice until you drop is fun, without question. But what about domestic cats? How do the poor house cats get their mice? Fortunately, not only mice are the object of every cat's desire. We'll show you various alternatives for your pet.
From a cat's diary: "When I got up this morning, I was incredibly thirsty. Miraculously, my warm milk and a fresh glass of water were already waiting for me. Delicious chicken canapés, the supposed speciality of the house, were also served. When my flatmates, the two-legged giants, had also eaten breakfast and nothing could fall off the dining table, it was time for my nap. Three hours later, well-rested and satisfied, I felt like action. But no one was there. What now?"
Your furry four-legged friend is probably familiar with this situation too. If you think that's not the case, then you should stop for a moment and listen to your pet. I'm almost certain that he (or she) longs for a playmate too. The first thing to mention here is the classic: the mouse. Of course, a live specimen would be absolutely phenomenal. If that's not possible, we have various mouse imitations in our range. Mice not only stimulate cats' hunting instincts, but also guarantee play, excitement and entertainment.

Yes, the future has arrived for cat toys too: Analogue crap is out, digitalisation is the future. There are laser pointers that project red dots onto floors, walls and ceilings. Red dots? Oh yes, red dots. Your cat would spin round in its sleep with joy. Sounds simple and easy, but it's great fun for any four-legged friend. Especially as these virtual and barely tangible things also move incredibly fast and completely unnaturally. The Petcube also belongs in this category. As a little extra, owners can even shoot goodies out of the cube via a smartphone app. With the Flik, a string is "randomly ejected and retracted" until your pet starts playing with it. And it will, without a doubt. Irresistible, these strings.
Cats also like Fifa. Okay, they might not exactly need the latest version, but they still like playing with the ball. PS, for those who don't know: Fifa is a soccer simulation for consoles and computers. The great thing about balls is that they roll away as soon as you seem to have them under control. A great challenge for any pet tiger. The thing looks so small and harmless, but is as fast as an arrow and, as I said, only really far away when you try to grab it. At Galaxus you will find the standard version, those with bells inside and, of course, the full range of colours.

The secret weapon for cats: Has worked on every cat so far, whether it was your own or someone else's. Cords leave no four-legged friend cold. Whether it's because they look like mouse tails or because they seem to move effortlessly around corners and over steps. Do you think your cat is in a deep sleep? Then take a string and run it over their fur - that's it for peace and quiet. Better than any alarm clock. Even beats the attractive effect of the smell of fresh cat food.
When we humans jump into a giant wave and are shaken by it, we often forget which way is up and which way is down. Cats feel the same way when they are allowed to let off steam in artificial tunnels. There are holes for spying everywhere, immovable parts alternate with movable ones and the exit could also be the entrance. Or is the entrance also an exit? Playing hide and seek is not only fun for humans, but also for your animal friend.

When I'm not stuffing my face with sweets, you'll catch me running around in the gym hall. I’m a passionate floorball player and coach. On rainy days, I tinker with my homebuilt PCs, robots or other gadgets. Music is always my trusted companion. I also enjoy tackling hilly terrain on my road bike and criss-crossing the country on my cross-country skis.
