My cat hates toys. How can I keep him entertained and active?

Question

My cat does not like toys, I really want to entertain him so he won’t become bored however it seems like nothing entices him. I’ve tried teasers, balls, crinkles, interactive toys, toys with food, catnip. You name it. I asked a vet on here but she told me to try the same toys Ive been trying to get him to play with. What do I do?

Some cats are happy with companionship and aren't interested in play. I’ve had luck with using a laser pointer to see if he’ll chase it. You can also try putting treats on a cat tree to get him to climb up and be active. You can also train cats to come when called, beg, sit, shake etc just like a dog. This is done with treats and praise as rewards and takes lots of time. The training should be fun for you both and is good bonding and quality time together. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for your cat.
