    Anyone have any recommendations?
    Moose just loves interactive toys! He likes all the general feather and stick toys but he has a little rotating butterfly thing he goes ape for and the ball track toy too. I need something, anything, to get some energy out of him :D
    He goes non stop all day but is sleeping through the night so I don't mind at all :D

    One of these used to drive one of our cats (who's no longer with us) mad. The other one just runs away from it though :)

    Thanks! I actually had 2 of them and think I gave them away because Peach and Cream hated them! Seems like something he would love though, must see can I pick up another :D

    "Da Bird" toys, hands down!

    Available on Amazon UK, ebay and also (I think) Meow Care in Dublin have them - check their facebook page.

    I have Da Bird and the zooplus brand one too, which he loooooooves! So does Cream for that matter :D
    I wish I could get him another kitten... may be a possibility later this year!

    Perhaps a small terrier as well.

    I've discovered a new favourite thing to keep him occupied, clicker training. He's scary smart, he's already doing a "touch" on command!

    Laser dot toys can be hit and miss but may workfor you if you can get the right angle for an automatic one (or simply normal and let him zoom up and down a corridor); another one we use is cardboard box fill with cramped papers and throw in treats to find. If you got some suitable high towers you can you can buy screw in mouse on a string to insert into them (until they break as always but cheap anyway).
