Does your cat play video games? Well Bean, the kitten in the video above, is getting pretty good at playing a game on her mom’s tablet. The cute kitty is getting a lot of pouncing practice!
Bean isn’t too well-coordinated yet. She’s still just a kitten, after all. But she’s sharpening her natural hunting instincts, and she couldn’t look more adorable doing it! Share this video with someone who could use a smile today!
Fun games can give kitties like Bean a mental and physical challenge that keeps them stimulated. Preventing boredom can also reduce unwanted behaviors from cats who don’t have enough to do during the day.
Here are a few games you can play with your cat, even if you don’t have a tablet!
Fun Games To Play With Cats

- Bathtub Ping Pong: All you need is an empty bath tub and a ping pong ball. Drop in the ping pong ball in the tub, and watch your cat play!
- Fetch: Fetch isn’t just for dogs. If you throw a small toy that your cat can carry, then you just might find the toy coming back for you to throw again.
- The Shell Game: Put a bell, treat, or toy under one of three identically colored cups, or “shells.” Shuffle the cups around like a magician, and see if your cat is able to follow the item and pick the right cup.
- Hidden Treasure: Put a small piece of meat or a treat inside a piece of paper and crumple it up, but not too tightly. Cats like paper and mystery, and they love treats!
- Hide & Seek: You can hide anywhere — behind a couch or curtain or wherever else you can find a somewhat easy hiding spot. Let your cat find you. But be on guard; cats are crafty! Carrying a treat or toy might encourage your kitty to find you, too!
