How To Keep Cat From Getting Bored At Night

At night, I keep my cat in my bedroom and she seems fine. She has pooped in my bedroom a few times, but that’s understandable. So, last night, I put a minI litter box in my bedroom. Yes, I understand that it might make my room smell, but I hid it behind my toy box so my cat can reach it but it’s out of sight (of course I can still clean it, and I’m cleaning it daily) she used it once last night. Anyways, I have a cat house and minI scratching post that she loves, but I just want to make sure that she doesn’t get bored at night. She’s honestly fine with being in there all night, but I just want to make it a little more entertaining for her. Any ideas?

 

hmm... my cats just stay in our rooms at night and sleep when we sleep. you could maybe put a couple toys in your room like balls or mice

Yeah she sleeps most of the time but I just want to keep her from getting bored if she ever wakes up in the middle of the night and can’t go to sleep

 

Yeah I have 2 cats that have to be with me during the night and they are really active so I took pvc pipes and did this just with different toys and they LOVE it!

Love that idea!

 

Awesome idea !!!

 

Play with the cat during afternoon and evening. And have some engaging toys around for during the day. Then hopefully it will sleep with you through the night.
At least that’s what works for us.
Also recommend some kind of feeder that is actual work, or challenge. One more thing to engage them. Just like dogs (and kids), you can tire the body by engaging the brain. Like this:

I built a sturdier and bigger cat house for her and put catnip in it, and she loves it. Thanks for the help!
