FAQ
Cat Enrichment Questions
How long should cat enrichment sessions be?
Most cats do better with short sessions. A few focused minutes repeated during the day is often more realistic than one long play block.
What if my cat ignores toys?
Change the type of movement, timing, and reward. Some cats prefer wand movement, some prefer puzzle feeding, and some need vertical or window-based enrichment first.
Can enrichment reduce scratching?
It can help when scratching is redirected into better surfaces and paired with routine, scent, stretch, and location context. It is not a punishment-based fix.
