Our Bella "hunts" small stuffed animals - tossing them into the air and then catching them, batting them, and throwing them into the air again. Eventually she will lay on them.
She has a wonderful play time which then leads to a nap. When she has limited outdoor time - she is a hunter - for lizards, which she hunts and plays with but does not kill.
I believe the play with stuffed animals is a substitute for her hunting instinct. Her favorite toys are a stuffed mouse (like Mickey), a small red fuzzy ball, and a small fuzzy horse. Aren't cats great!

My 10month old cat, Pandi used to steal beans and asparagus stalks from me while i was preparing dinner,then play with them in a toss and hunt game-sometimes he would eat them.
He also liked avocado, muesili fruit bread and low fat smooth cottage cheese. He died on Friday i really feel bereft.
