We know, we know: You don't need to invest in the best cat games on the market. A humble cardboard box from your most-recent Amazon haul or wayward spool of yarn will do just fine, and even the most skeptical of cats can be entertained for hours by the beams of any household flashlight. But choosing to pamper your kitty should never be about necessity, right?
Here, we've rounded up the best ways to do exactly that. Our list of the best cat games on the market might be a little #extra, sure, but so are your feelings for your fluffy best friend. And besides, with some as low as $1.99 (!), we're not sure what's stopping you from spoiling him or her rotten. From classic catnip mice to higher-tech laser beam toys and even an iPad app specifically designed for cats, we can't imagine a better way to welcome a new pet into your life or simply celebrate your longtime companion. (These games would also be great gifts for any cat lovers you know.) If you feel like splurging further on your feline friend, you can invest in a "catio" (yes, that's exactly what it sounds like) or outdo yourself with a new cat tree.

Petstages Tower of Tracks
Brightly-colored and interactive, this fun toy has three tracks for maximum fun—and minimum human involvement. It's designed with three levels of tracks and three brightly colored moving balls to attract kitty’s attention! With over 5,000 reviews on Amazon and hundreds of glowing testimonials from happy owners, we think you and your feline will want to get in on this craze.
Fish Sim for Cats App
Yes, Fish Sim is an app...for cats. And believe it or not, it isn't alone in that category. If you haven't yet heard about the simplistic games for kittens that have hit smartphones and iPads recently, you're missing out. This one allows your pet to stare at and even attempt to catch realistic-looking fish.
SmartyKat Catnip Mice
We know, we know; you're rolling your eyes at this one. Catnip mice? Been there, done that. But you might want to think twice before dismissing these bestselling ones, which boast upwards of 3,000 reviews and feature cute, tropical accent colors. They're classic for a reason, after all.
Cat Amazing Treat Maze & Puzzle Feeder
This award-winning game claims to "stimulate and occupy cats and kittens for hours." Hide rewards within the box, then task your cats with scratching, poking, and sniffing their way to the treats inside.
Cat Dancer Rainbow Cat Charmer
Another classic, this rainbow charmer is a little different from other baton toys in that it's essentially unbreakable. If you're only going to invest in one toy, this is probably your best bet.
Friends Forever Interactive Cat Laser Toy
Another newfangled laser toy, this one requires even less work on your part—and it can keep your pets company while you're out of the house. Randomized patterns keep things interesting.
Cat Dancer Interactive Cat Toy
The Cat Dancer toy isn't much to look at, it's true. It's nothing more than a little piece of cardboard and a steel wire. But those who've seen it in action (that's eight million cats, according to the manufacturer) will attest to the fact that it really works, keeping cats happy and engaged without any of the frills. Did we mention it's just $1.99?
Catit Senses 2.0 Digger for Cats
Another "puzzle feeder," this one encourages cats to dig a little deeper to get to their treats, which are hidden within small tunnel-like bowls. The idea is to fully stimulate their senses, get them moving, and require them to work a bit in order to eat.
