🎾 7-Day Enrichment Plan Generator
A bored cat is a cat inventing their own entertainment — usually involving your curtains. Tell us about your cat and the toys you already own, and get a full week of play sessions, solo activities and toy rotation that fits your schedule.
Your cat & your toys
Kittens get shorter, more frequent bursts. Seniors get gentle, floor-level play.
Be honest — a plan you'll actually do beats an ambitious one you won't. Short daily sessions beat one weekend marathon.
The plan only uses what you have — plus free DIY ideas where there's a gap.
Your week of play

Every day follows the same rhythm: play, then eat. That order matters — see “How it works” below.
How it works
The hunt–catch–eat cycle. A cat's brain runs a simple loop: stalk → chase → catch → eat → groom → sleep. Play that ends with a meal completes the loop, which is why this plan puts a session right before breakfast and dinner. A cat who has “hunted” their dinner settles afterwards instead of bouncing off the walls.
Why the toys rotate. A toy that lives on the floor becomes furniture within days. Putting half the toys away and swapping them on Sunday makes the returning set feel new again — novelty is the cheapest enrichment there is, and it costs nothing.
Short and daily beats long and rare. Two or three sessions of 7–15 minutes, every day, do more for behaviour than one heroic hour on Saturday. Cats are sprinters, not marathon runners — when your cat flops over or wanders off, the session is done, and that's fine.
Kittens and seniors. Kittens get shorter sessions capped at 10 minutes, more often — their coordination and attention are still under construction. Seniors get slow, floor-level play with no jumping: drag the wand along the ground, let them win often, and stop while they're still interested.
Play is behaviour guidance, not a health check. If your cat suddenly stops playing, hides, or loses interest in things they usually love, that's worth a conversation with your veterinarian.
This planner suggests play and enrichment activities only. Amounts and session lengths are starting points — follow your cat's lead, and end any session early if they walk away.
