Many office workers go out early and come back late. They spend less time with their cats and always leave their cats alone at home. Cat owners are also a little worried about their boredom. Here are some tips compiled by the editor on how to make cats live happily indoors. ​​​​​​

1. Interesting toys

Motorized "mouse" and laser pointer fashioned from aluminum foil pockets, these toys can excite even the laziest cat. An all-day cat favorite toy that will turn your cat into a dancer and cat-changing magician.

2. Sharpen claws

Cats love to scratch things. This will help you polish off broken nails, stretch your muscles, and mark your territory. The best way to save your furniture is to provide them with plenty of your "approved" stuff for them to sharpen their claws on. Cat "trees" and posts, cardboard boxes and a creative "cat track" (a ball in a plastic channel lined with claw pads) are also great options.

3. Provide a room with an outside view

Your window is your cat’s TV – placing a bird feeder next to your window will keep your cat entertained for a long time. If your window sill isn’t wide enough, you can make one yourself or buy a cushioned perch to place on the sill. Note: Make sure the window is secure enough so that the cat cannot slide down on it. At the same time, roll up curtains and other things to prevent the cat's legs from being caught.

4. Corridors can also please cats

An enclosed porch or a window extension is a great place for cats to safely commune with nature. If your yard has a fence, another good idea is to put a net over the fence to keep your cat in your yard.

5. Walking the cat

You can use a leash to train your cat to walk while you are resting, but be sure to use the lightest recyclable leash and connect it to a thorax and abdominal strap rather than a collar. Get your cat used to wearing a harness indoors, and then take her out on adventures.

6. Plant catnip all over the yard

Cats will slowly taste the catnip and roll in it. Other healthy snacks include wheat sprouts, alfalfa and oats.
