I’ve been forcing my partially outdoor cat to stay indoors. He’s mad and bored and mostly sleeps now. Recs for best cat toys?

Also cat trees (multiple) and cat shelves so the cat get up high, particularly by the windows. Jackson Galaxy has a lot of good ideas about how to “catify” indoor spaces. If you have private outdoor space, I’ve seen cool setups for catios (cat patios)- an enclosed space that allows the cat to safely experience the outdoors.

Anything interactive that can trigger hunting instincts. Feather toys, those attached to wands, robotic mice that have erratic movements, etc. Catnip is always good too!

Try this get a tennis ball and make a nice size hole, put in your cats favorite cat treats, and place the ball on the floor. The object of the game is for your cat to figure out how to get the treats out. The hole has to be big enough so when your cat bats the ball around the treats will come out.

Another idea is build a maze out of cardboard, or play find the treats around the house

I second the cat trees and cat walkways. I also keep the window open as much as possible. You could look into an outdoor catio - the cat gets to be outside but is still safe

Mine was like this. She had been abandoned & lived outside when we found her. It took a few months to stop crying in front of the door to get out, but she has mostly adjusted. I got her every kind of cat toy invented and she liked the boxes more. The best thing I've given her by far is the ball I felted out of her own fluff! She wants her luxurious coat to be brushed twice a day and I started collecting all that hair, and got a felting needle and ten minutes later I had her favorite toy ever. When she's restless the ball never fails. Cats are weird! I also have a catnip spray she likes that I use on her scratching posts. She likes novelty so I rotate her things (cat tree, bed, brush, toys) because after a couple months out of sight it's more attractive to her.

Had an discussion with someone about the expectation of men vs women in movies and shows. Playing devils advocate I’d argue that just like girls growing up see unrealistic expectations of beauty for women, boys also see unrealistic expectations of men (e.g. handsome, super hero fitness, extremely successful etc) and these may be more difficult to obtain than the expectations for women. I want to be proved wrong because my friend couldn’t

My confession is that I have seen the medical field change so much over the past 20 years, that it's unrecognizable in both good and bad ways. More people are leaving than staying, and I am worried the quality of care is dwindling. I try not to burden friends and family with some of the things I've seen recently, but the short version is that I'm no longer sure I have faith or trust in it myself.

So. My cat just pooped in the very expensive yarn I'm currently using. How do I recover from this? I have half a hat and half a ball of now quite smelly yarn. I shook out all the crap but what do I do now? Ignore it and hope it airs out? Hand wash the yarn and let it air dry? Spray with febreeze and never look the person I'm giving this to in the eye again? Burn it and give up knitting until i no longer have a cat?
