They need lots of playtime
When you decide to become a cat parent you should be aware that they need a lot of playtime. In general, felines are very playful animals that need many exercises and toys to keep them focused and active almost all day.
“You have to be ready to play with your cat,” says Borns-Weil. “Kittens are very playful. They have a high need for interaction and stimulation and predatory play. They’re at this stage in life where play is really important to them or their development. You want to provide tons of opportunity for that predatory play.”
