You should absolutely give her toys. Indoor cats need stimulation and encouragement to Play, hunt and exercise. And there is no better way to do that than with a toy.

Of course there are the standard balls and toy mice you can offer your cat. But interactive toys are also a great choice.

The “Go roundy” is my cats favorite. We have three throughout the house. We bought ours at Walmart and refills are at Walmart. Voted Best Toy Ever by the Kat Pride!! Looks like this: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=3261+1897+11640&pcatid=11640

The Laser Pointer: Great for exercising and for getting your cat into the hunting mood. http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=3261+1897+2972&pcatid=2972

The automatic laser toy. Another of my cats favorites. While the laser doesn’t really move a lot they still love to pounce and play when mom can’t get out the real laser pointer. http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=3261+1897+14923&pcatid=14923

Ricky Rodent: Great for giving a real good bunny kicking-head thumping to. http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=3261+1897+13095&pcatid=13095

Of course you don’t have to spend money to have toys though! My cats homemade favorites: Balled up piece of paper, Balled up Tinfoil, Milk ring, Milk Cap, Toilet paper roll, Cardboard Box for playing hidey and shredding, a clean healthy stick for chewing or chasing, a piece of string they can chase (never leave unattended), or a stuffed animal for attacking and bunny kicking.
