We've recently just moved from a 1 bedroom flat with a patio, to a 2 bedroom house with a garden. Lilia did seem quite lazy when we were in the flat and spent a lot of time sleeping. Now we're in the house, Lilia has come down from 4kg to 2.9kg - just from running around the garden and up and down the stairs. Fantastic!

Great idea - fantastic - I will have to suggest that to other fat cat owners

My cat enjoys rolled up string and when I throw it she runs after it and brings it back. She also likes pens, just running after them and chucking them around.
She is a mad cat x

I bought something online called the "Da Bird". It's amazing and my cats go mad to catch it! It spins as you whirl it round and sounds like a trapped bird. It's the only cat toy my cats can't get enough of.
I also hide Kitkats food on top of furniture and under things so he has to work to find it. I also put dry food into paper bags so he has to tear them open.
