5 Piece Worm Teaser Wand
Teaser wand with worm attachments.
Price Range:
$
Why We Love This
This wand toy is a bit large and cumbersome for our taste, but we really love the little worm attachments. Kitties love the way they wiggle around and you will need all five because cats love to hunt and pounce on these little worms, so they do tear apart after a while.
The KittyWhip Cat Toy
The best teaser wand we've found, it is our favorite. Use promo code TABBYMANOR for 10% off! (yes, we love it that much, we asked the seller to make us a promo code)
Price Range:
$$
Why We Love This
This is our favorite teaser wand, by far. It's a little pricey, but this toy is made well and is very durable, so it lasts for a very long time. Cats seem to really love it. Something about the way the cord moves make cats go crazy! They love running, chasing and jumping after the kitty whip. There's a little spring that holds the cord to the wand and we think this design is what give it that whip-like motion that cats love. We like that you can choose either a leather cord or a braided rope cord, because some cats like one more than the other. The wand is also the perfect length, not to long, so it's easy to play with and also to store away.
Petstages Butterfly Wand Toy
A butterfly teaser wand with a wire that makes the butterfly appear to "flutter".
Price Range:
$
Why We Love This
We love this because cats love attacking the butterfly. But we would never pay more than $10 for this toy because the butterfly wings tear off so easily, it never lasts long. You can't really replace the attachment because the butterfly's body is glued to the wire. Our workaround is to jimmy-rig another attachment to the wire once the butterfly has died so we can still use the wand.
Cat Exercise Wheel
An alternative cat wheel. Treadmill for cats help them reduce pent up energy and lose weight by exercising.
Price Range:
$$$
Why We Love This
An alternative to the OneFastCat cat wheel. This toy takes a lot of purrent patience, this isn't something your call will learn to use overnight. But teaching your cat how and encouraging them to use it is a really great bonding activity between cat and human. Once kitty has mastered the wheel, this is a toy they can utilize on their own too. It's really fullfilling to see your cat enjoying their wheel after spending the time and putting in the work to teach them to use it. Like seeing your toddler take their first steps! Except better, because it's a cat. ;-)
Covered Motion Toy
Automatic toy with "mouse tail" that moves underneath the fabric. Rechargeable battery. Automatic shut-off.
Price Range:
$$
Why We Love This
Cats who love the "blanket game" will love this! We love it because it has several speeds, different auto-off options, and a rechargable battery. This toy is great to turn on when you leave the house to give kitty some extra stimulation.
Hanging Suncatcher Crystal Prism
These mini-disco balls catch the sunlight and reflect tons of rainbow light spots across the room.
Price Range:
$
Why We Love This
Cats who like to chase light spots and reflections go nuts for the light that reflects off of these little disco balls. We love things like this that can keep kitty entertained when we aren't able to play with them.
360° Self Rotating Ball with Feather Toy
Automatic ball with feather attachment rolls and rotates in irregular motions and makes bird sounds. Activated by touch and shuts off automatically after 75 second of non-use. Rechargeable battery.
Price Range:
$
Why We Love This
This toy is a little noisy as it bumps around the room, so it's not for every purr-sonality. But outgoing kitties will love chasing it around. We love the auto-off feature and rechargeable battery.
Go Cat Cat Catcher Teaser Wand with Da Bee Bumble Attachments
Teaser wand with flexible wire and bumblebee attachments.
Price Range:
$
Why We Love This
The erratic movement of the wire really makes cats go wild! They love these attachments for some reason. We love it comes with 3 attachments because cats really destroy them quickly (and we love that about them!). The wire gets tangled after a lot of use, but it lasts long enough to feel we got our money's worth.
Motion Activated Butterfly Toy
Motion-activated butterfly cat toys flutters for 30 seconds when kitty walks by or is actively engaging with it.
Price Range:
$
Why We Love This
We love the motion-activated feature not only because it saves bettery life, but also because it really catches kitty's attention and engages playtime when they walk by it. This toy is great to turn on when you leave the house to give kitty some extra stimulation.
Collapsible Pop Up Rainbow Crinkle Tunnel
Crinkle tube bundle that comes with 3 different tunnel styles (also sold individually via the same link).
Price Range:
$
Why We Love This
Some cats are indifferent about crinkle tunnels, but cats that love them REALLY love them! Try out one and if your kitty digs it, they might like a few different kinds to hide in, run through, play and wrestle in. Some cats also love when their humans run a feather wand or another toy along the tube to make that "crinkle" sound and have a blast attacking the toy through the little windows.

The original cat wheel. Treadmill for cats help them reduce pent up energy and lose weight by exercising.

Fur Mice with Rattling Sounds, Bag of 12
Small mouse-like toys that make a rattle sound when shaken.
Price Range:
$
Why We Love This
Some cats could care less about these, but other cats really love them! One of our kitties will carry her mice around and leave them in various spots, and sometimes gives them "swimming lessons" in her water bowl (so cute!). Another one of our kitties likes when we toss them down the hall so she can chase them. These mice are very budget-friendly so definitely worth trying out.
Steel Wire Feather Wand Teaser with Beads and Bells
A teaser wand with feathers and jingle bells attached to a wire.
Price Range:
$
Why We Love This
We are big fans of any teaser wand that has a wire because the erratic motion of the wire seems to really appeal to cats. We love this one in particular because the wire is very strudy, so it still has the same motion but does not tangle like other wire wands. The only downside is that it does not have replaceable attachments, so once kitty has destroyed the feathers, you either have to get creative or get a new one.
The Ripple Rug
Two pieces of carpet that velcro together in different spots so you can rearrange the "ripples". There are several different sized holes in the top piece for playtime fun.
Price Range:
$$
Why We Love This
Cats who love playing in forts really seem to love the ripple rug. They'll burrow under it and bat at toys through the holes, or lay on top and attack a teaser wand when their humans wiggle it underneath. It also works great for hiding a few treats or toys in that kitty enjoys "hunting". We were skeptical at first because it does take up a god amount of floor space and is a little pricey, but after seeing kitties love it time and time again, we put our stamp of approval on the Ripple Rug.
Yeowww! Catnip Toy, Rainbow
Rainbow catnip toy made with Yeowww! catnip, which is the best catnip. Change my mind.
Price Range:
$
Why We Love This
If your cat likes catnip, you will never be disappointed with a Yeowww! toy. I don't know what makes their catnip different, but cats love it immediately and it never seems to go stale. Meaning no matter how much your cat chews and slobbers all over this toy, they'll still love it. Our Yeowww! rainbow is over 2 years old and looks like garbage now, but the cats still play with it all the time.
