These are the toys Frank continues to play with.  Frank is a senior cat who has worked hard to get back to a healthy weight. Here are the toys Frank and I recommend to keep a cat entertained and happy. He is also a rather large, long cat so his toys need to be bigger than most cat's toys.

My cat is very long and the toys I buy him have to be big enough for him. He loves his very long kicker toys. This one is 17 inches long so it's big enough for him to hold with his front paws and kick with his back feet.

Frank loves his tunnels, and this is his favorite for 2 reasons: It's long and it crinkles. He absolutely loves the crinkly noise, and that it's long enough for him (a very big cat) to run through.

Frank loves these play cubes. I have one in the living room so he has a private spot to stay. Sometimes we take his tunnels and hook them up to the holes to make one big tunnel. When he's in a frisky mood he loves to run through them all.

Frank is particularly fond of fish, so Salmon and tuna are his favorites. These are cute, they are in the shape of little hearts, and boy, do they have a smell. I assume that means there is a big taste/flavor, too.

Cat Accessories That Are Always in My Cupboard

My cat is rather large and kept over-shooting the top of the top of what I thought was a big litter box. This has a 4 inch extension. My senior cat has an easy time getting into it. My only caution is to make sure you have room. This is a large box, ...

My Frank hates to be brushed. Putting this on a corner has allowed him to mark his scent and get a bit of grooming. This does not replace brushing. It does keep the ugly marks from Frank marking his scent off the corners and it makes him happy.
