How much should you play with your cat? Take the play-style quiz

Cats are small hunters who live on a sofa, and play is how they get to stalk, pounce and catch something. Most vets and welfare groups suggest short, frequent sessions: about two or three a day, a few minutes up to fifteen.

Take the quiz to see what a good day looks like for your cat's age, energy and play style, plus the six steps of a satisfying hunt and what to avoid, like laser pointers and loose string.
